However, Dolphin can play backup discs fine (e.g. dump your ISO, burn it in a standard DVD-R media) but you may experience random stutterings here and there...

I wouldn't try to buy one of those drives either as they are all IDE which most modern MOBO's don't support anymore. Adapters do exist though.
I actually tried to buy one myself off of amazon that was listed as one of those drives it even had comments in the user reviews saying "This works for GC/Wii discs" I got the drive though and they had sent me a different model that didn't work.

They aren't all IDE. USB ones exist.

So how long do you think it'll be until disc drives finally run Wii games?
RE: Future of disc drives - Aleron Ives - 04-30-2015
It'll never happen, so I guess the answer to your question is infinity.
