Preparation
Before beginning, you need to check if the USB is formatted:

- If you see an Unformatted storage device, select it.

Section 1. Ripping discs
If your game isn't a disc (XBLA, digital, etc.) skip to Section 2.
You'll want to change these options to stop game(s) from automatically starting:
Images (click to expand)
-
Go to home on the dashboard
-
Insert the disc into the drive, and close the tray.
-
Once the game shows up press X (Game Details) with the game selected.
-
Press the Install button.
-
If you see Delete instead, skip to Section 2.
-
Note: Not all games have the Install option. List of currently known uninstallable games:
- College Hoops 2k7
- Minecraft
- Pocket Bike Racers
- Sneak King
- Crackdown
- Dead or Alive Xtreme 2
- Select the storage device you want to install the game on.
Once it's 100% Completed press A to continue, and press B to go back to home.
Section 2. Transferring HDD games
If you ripped the game(s) directly to the USB drive, or they're already on the USB drive, you can skip this section.
- Go to Settings > System > Storage > Hard Drive > Press Y (Device Options) > Transfer Content > USB Storage Device
- Choose what you want to transfer. Keep in mind full games and trials/demos are in separate categories.
Images (click to expand)
- Press right, then Start.
Once it's done you can take the USB out of the console.
Section 3. Importing games for use in Xenia
- Insert the USB drive into your PC. Go to
Content
.
If the USB drive shows up as empty enable Show hidden files and folders in Windows Explorer.
- Go into
00000#
. There will be folders with names consisting of lots of letters and numbers. You should find the game's folder within one of them. - The game will have a name with a bunch of letters and numbers just like the folders, and no file extension.
- XBLA games will be one file, GOD (disc) games will contain a file, along with a *.data folder with the same name.
- ContentCache.pkg is irrelevant. Ignore it.
- To confirm that it is indeed a game try opening the file with Velocity.
- Once you've made sure the file opens in Velocity and works in Xenia you can rename, or move the folder the game is in for convenience.
-
*FOLDER ABOVE, NOT FILE or .DATA FOLDER!
-
(Optional) If the game crashes you can try extracting the game using Velocity.
-
If the game is extracted you will need to drag
default.xex
onto Xenia. -
Some games have multiple .xex files, so if you can't find
default.xex
or it just doesn't work, try another one.
