Can scratches on disks be repaired?

[chillv]

I have a lot of wii games that no longer work because they have scratches on them. However, I do know that there is a game store that repairs disks. If the scratches aren't that severe, will they be able to be repaired?

I think you just answered your own question; yes

Scratches can be never repaired because there is no substance that can replace the gaps.

They can be repaired just not at your own home i work at JB HI-FI and we use a machine that cuts a thin layer of the disc off making it so there are no scratches.

it's as Nookie says. but, my cousin, whose parents work with electronics and stuff, say that there's a possiblility that the information can be damaged. i don't remember the conversation exactly, so, if the game's not acting up, it may be best to not worry about small scratches.

I heard Nintendo fixes games like Super Smash Bros. Brawl for free, I'd look into it. Because SSBB is such a huge game, they had to pack it into the disc in a double-layer. So It's very sensitive to scratches and may not work with the slightest scratches on it, and Nintendo has apologized for that.

thanks for this information! it's super useful! my sister plays the ssb games so much they can't help but get some scratches, so i'll pass this onto her.
