Things like documentation and images, and even trademarks need different licenses on usage. People suggested hitting mamario with a GPL violation; I was hinting that there could be other avenues to pursue.
I don't see any copyrighted images in his website. Maybe there are but I don't know that they are copyrighted. Anyway, if anybody hit him with that, he could simply remove/replace the images. The website shows a screenshot but I highly doubt that it requires permission to display a screenshot of a GPL software. Regarding the trademarks, it's not illegal to just mention them. For example, nobody needs to get permission to say "Dolphin is a Gamecube and Wii emulator."
Also, in case Dolphin is not trademarked before he owns the domain name, he has the right to use that domain name. Recently, Nintendo has lost a case similar to this (wiiu.com).
