I have used the memorex discs in the past. the wii seems to read them just fine. I did however have more errors while burning the discs then i do if i use sonys or verbatiums. Right now ive been using hp discs and they work well too.

Any disk I can get my hands on work for me (datawrite mach4, no name printable, Jetplay)

I think it's combination of things quality of burner and media I have used lots of cheap media on my 2 Pioneer burners and never had a problem

Memorex has caused problems, some work in the disc channel, some only work in Gecko and some only work in NeoGamma, and some don't work at all.

I used Kodak's before that and every single disc worked great.

I recommend Sony DVD-Rs. They are the best price and quality wise! They also seem to work well for PS2s and the CD-Rs like dreamcasts. ;D So I say stick with Sony. I've had one bad burn out of 400! That's really good!

=] I can get a 100 spindle for around 19 dollars.

sony is ok for me. The only issue till now was new super mario, which doesnt load in neogamma and goes back to the system menu.


But i'm sure it is a release problem.

I use taiyo yuden discs on mine or maxell discs using their own dye (MXL RG04). Normally I'd use verbatims, but my wii doesn't like them

    Some shovel ware with low ratings you might enjoy more than the ratings would sugest

    Cruisn on the Wii is one of my personal examples of that, it's considered one of the worst games of all time, I loved it and completed it several times.

    The trick for me was to go into the settings and crank up the Wiimote sensitivity to the max and it gets twitchy but you can win that way lol
