Is there anyway to play GameCube downloads on an actual GameCube?

I thought that Nintendo uses a proprietary disc. My disc drive can even read it and it's a DVD-RW/CD-RW combo. So what's the point of these roms and how can you even make your own? I would like to upload my Pokemon Colosseum Bonus Disc, but I can't even get my drive to read it.

Is there a GC emulator or something? I was unaware of this... How good does it run if so?

[JohnnyBlaze]

There is but it runs like crap. Like I said, my drive doesn't even read my GC discs.

oh, pfft nevermind then heh. I wanted to try out Tales of Symphonia

GC disks are just like DC disks... Not a normal format... so basic drives will not be able to read them... However unlike DC games you can't burn GC disks and just play them on your system... you need the viperexploit or some jazz like that...

However if you have Phantasy Star Online and the BB adapter, you can connect you GCN to your PC and you can play / rip games.
