I've been doing this lately with games I am selling but don't have the time or desire to play. I presume it to be better than just seeing if the game will load, since that doesn't give the whole picture.
Also, does anyone know a way to check out Gamecube games? I have one with a kinda bad looking scratch (mario sunshine) that I don't know what to do with. Don't wanna play the whole game again. It loads fine, and a couple of the levels I went to load fine.
