Vimm is great for most retro systems, but when you get into the disc-based era, the proprietary or alternative formats are pretty bad. For Wii, you download a weird stripped down ISO format that requires a random piece of software to restore into an usable format, for instance.
Ah, I didn't realize that. I mostly have played PS2 games that seem to work pretty well. I've downloaded, but haven't actually tried any of the newer system stuff. I'll give the internet archive a shot then.
