Why IS this allowed? Seriously it fucking infuriates me. I mean, I am grateful that Dolphin exists and these developers are so awesome at what they do. But fuck me there's no excuse for older consoles to be emulated so awfully compared to newer/more advances ones. Fucking WiiU emulation is closing in on Project64 quality pretty soon.

>>
>>342623843
Harder to emulate systems probably rely on more complex and CPU intensive recompiling systems. The Gamecube isn't too hard to emulate because it simply had an ATI graphics chip and an intel processor, the N64 and PS2 have something like five different processors, the PS2's GPU in particular had a quasi triple-core wacky setup, an image decompression unit, an idiosyncratic CPU and a super huge bandwidth for a 1999 piece of hardware.

The difference in resolution is negligible if you're playing on a small screen. Of course Dolphin will look better on a 55" screen in 4k than a Wii would on the same screen in 480p. Playing the Wii on a 20"-24" BVM CRT is a godsend, and scan lines give you results similar to anti-aliasing. Sure the more stable framerates are nice, but its not enough to justify building a rig for small dips in fps.

>>342632742

Because it's not so simple you idiots.

Those games were designed to work in tangent to the hardware. Hardware which was much much more unique than their successors in comparison to a PC.

It's simply much harder to emulate and it doesn't help with advancing technology leaving older tech further behind.

So will consoles.
But the latency of emus vs console is so minuscule, it won't be noticed by anyone without explicit numbers.
>>
>>342631060
The only people you hurt by emulating older games/consoles that the company stopped producing are the retailers who sell them.

if its illegal let it be illegal, no need to make this a moral issue or actually dissecting who individually gets hurt.

Its simply easy to do and not common to get caught, also Emulation and Emulators aren't illegal, it is the distribution of backups (roms and iso) that break copyright law

I shouldn't have specified "needs"

Something that would otherwise be unplayable without them, I not sure if there was a Donkey Konga successor for the Wii that did this, you can use a Classic Controller/Pro on all those, in addition any controller you can plug into your PC on the Dolphin

Not him but the virtual console runs on fucking magic. Just like the PSP can make short work of PS1 games because of its hardware, the Wii could easily run N64 through nintendo magic and the N3DS can effortlessly run SNES games while common emulators still chug to no end on GBA
>>
>>342639812
I heard some games run better in Virtual Console than in N64 emulators. Also, you won't have to deal with multiple emulators, you can limit yourself to one.

I hear there is an obscure release for Gamecube that makes it play Gameboy Advance games too, so I think you could play most GBA games in Dolphin too, by using that to emulate GBA, reducing the need for separate emulators even more.
