I just had a WiiKey 2 mod chip put in my Wii and was wondering if its possible to backup games using an SD card in the Wii as opposed to using a PC and a DVD burner? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Not possible, stick to downloading the ISO's off torrent sites, although there is a way that you can connect the wii to the pc via wireless and dump the raw image to the pc? or it might have been to a hard drive connected to the USB port on the wii?

As i said its much easier to just download the ISO's and burn then to DVD

If you have Homebrew you could try the USB Loader. If I'm not mistaken you can rip a game from your Wii's DVD drive to an external HDD or USB Thumb Drive.... although that's a lot of wear and tear on the drive. I use the USB loader but I use WBFS manager to put ISO's from my computer to my external HDD and then play them from that.

As well I think there's a dumper utility that will dump the game from the Wii DVD drive to your SD card too... but I've never used it... again, too much wear and tear on the drive.

EDIT: oh yeah, click HERE for larrylje's awesome guide.
