Is there any way to compress Wii ISOs - souravstar - 03-09-2011

I tried WinRAR with best compression but it saves just a few KBs which is useless. While PS2, PSX ISOs saves atleast 40% space.

I really need space 'cause this year my fav singer is coming back.

ha. i just randomly came across the 'compress iso' option in dolphin one day. i have been compressing them ever since. alot of them dont compress that much, but i know one of my games went from like 4 gigs to under 1.
