    Here's the steps I took, if someone can figure out where I went wrong

    I got my .rar files from the game
    Compressed into a .zip
    Extracted into a folder
    Turned the folder into a .iso

    But when I load it in Dolphin it says that my ISO is invalid, or it isn't a Wii ISO (which it is)

    Help?

    well yes it wouldn't be a valid iso after that process. Files with the .rar extension need to be extracted using winrar or 7zip, which will give you a valid iso.

    Where did you get your .rar file from ?
    If meant that the game which you downloaded,turned out to be a .rar file instead of .iso file then you only need to exrract it instead of compressing it agian and renaming it as .iso file .

    So simply extract the .rar file to find your wii .iso file.
