Backing up GC games

I just finished backing up my DVD's and CD's. Is there a way to backup gamecube games?

Nintendo GameCube uses 8cm Disc based on Matsu****a's Optical Disc Technology. CG discs capacity is approximate. 1.5GB. Now because of this non standard dvd like storage media that Nintendo used it is practically impossible to copy them. Not that it would not be technically possible - but the costs involved would just too high Sorry to tell you this but you can no do it on a CD-R / CD-RW or DVD-R burner.

First to copy the gamez you would have to extract the game data files from Nintendo GameCube Games disc. But because PC CD rom or DVD roms can not read the CG format discs you would need a hacked GameCube with come cheats device to operate the consoles drive and read out files. The drive would have to be hooked up to a computer. AS you can understand that kind of hardware wouldn't be cheap as it would have to be custom made for this purpose.

Now I believe that would be the easy part as we come to the actual copying gamecube games that is where the biggest problems arise. There is no publicly available hardware to burn gamecube game discs. So that would have to be extracted from one of the Nintendo's factories
