Dolphin
Dolphin is an open
source Nintendo GameCube, Wii, and Triforce emulator for Microsoft Windows,
Linux, and OS X. It was the first emulator to successfully run commercial
Nintendo GameCube and Wii games, and is the only emulator capable of running
commercial Wii games. Its name refers to the Nintendo Dolphin, which was the
development codename for the GameCube. Most
games run perfectly or with minor bugs. Games are playable at
HD quality, up to 1080p. This is a remarkable
feature the actual Gamecube and Wii consoles are not
capable of. As an open source project everyone can commit improvements.
The code is hosted on code.google.com. Dolphin is actively developed and almost
every day new features are added and bugs fixed as well.
System Requirements
Dolphin runs best on
a computer with a 3 GHz or higher dual-core processor, and a graphics card that
supports the latest versions of DirectX, OpenGL, and OpenCL. Preferable
graphics cards are those manufactured by Nvidia or ATI. Dolphin is able to
accept input from a mouse, keyboard, joypad, joystick, Wii Remote, and
microphone.
