Not quite as simple as that mate

A CD-Rom game, using commercial applications such as Nero, can only be backed up onto CD-R.

Believe me, I have tried this myself a few times

A cue/bin image is most of the times based on a filesystem which is not an option for DVD media.
DVD-data or video supports UDF (several revisions), plain ISO9660 and UDF with Joliet extensions.
cue/bin can be 100% ISO9660 compliant (mode1/2048 bytes per sector, single data track, no video, audio or RAW tracks/datastreams allowed), but most of the times it isn't.

Most likely you will lose data. Just check the .cue file, and if you have more than one data track (or audio/video tracks) you may safely skip the conversion thingy- it will save you valuable time (and coasters).
