===NKit formats - GC/Wii===
* '''Archive-quality dump?''' Yes - by explicit design choice!Not directly, can be restored with NKit
* '''Gain:''' Immediate - (Wii) only for GCZ format.
* '''Tools Used:''' NKit.
* '''Can be reverted?''' Yes!.
* '''Playable on Hardware?''' (GC) Yes - ISO-based variant only (Wii) No
* '''Playable on Emulators?''' Yes - Dolphin
NKit-GCZ (as well as plain GCZ) is less space efficient than NKit-ISO compressed with a powerful general purpose archiver (7zip), however it is directly playable in Dolphin.
However But using it is problematic with Dolphinfor emulation has problems, such as slower emulated load times are longer , breaking netplay if load times aren't the same, and crashing a few games just crash.
Compressing NKit .ISO is with a strong compression format gives the ideal space-saving option for Gamecube gamessmallest size while being reversible.
