8 GB? Try 1.35 GB for a standard GameCube disc Wink The list of games that use dual-layer DVDs is very small. I don't remember exactly how many, but probably less than 15. Out of those few games, even fewer only have a few hundred megabytes free.

I wonder if this is a problem in Dolphin too. Dolphin's limit for discs is at 16 GB, but it doesn't sound unlikely that games make some sort of assumption about how large discs can be...

Are you sure? People do modify ISOs from time to time, and I've never heard about problems with any measures like that.

If he wanted to play them on the Wii itself, he'd more than likely have to upgrade the RAM, if you'd want to even do that.
I don't think the software is made to handle more than what is in a standard console. That also applies when it's running in Dolphin.
