FAQ
What file types are supported?
- GCM, ISO, GCZ, WBFS, DOL, ELF, DFF
Why don't you support zip files?
- The same reason why desktop Dolphin doesn't support games in zip files. Zip files don't allow random file access, which is required. Use GCZ or WBFS if you want to use a compressed format.
It just crashes on my phone, what's wrong?
- If you have 512MB/1GB of RAM in your phone, it may or may not work. Depending on game it may just crash, this could be a problem with either the phone not being capable of running the game, or potentially the video software backend crashing out.
