How to Install Pokemon Rumble Using WAD Manager

Installing "Pokemon Rumble" to the Wii allows users to play the game without any need for physical discs. This can be a very convenient option for many, since it eliminates the need to constantly insert the disc into the Wii. It also allows users to play after a disc has been damaged without purchasing a replacement, which can be extremely costly. Installing "Pokemon Rumble" is somewhat harder than it may seem. Doing so improperly can cause irreversible damage to the console, or even render it useless.
