BeagleBone Black!

I'm guessing it probably will not be able to, but will the BeagleBone Black be able to successfully run the Dolphin Emulator?

Short answer, no.

Welcome to the forums! The specs link is broken. Just post your CPU and OS.

No... that`s not even a PC...

Maybe you can run the GUI, but playing a game? never.

You might be able to "run" Dolphin, but I don't think you will get more than a frame every few seconds. Just buy a multimedia laptop and play light games like Wind Waker. Or build a desktop with i5 3570k and play nearly any game. Just stick to SNES emulation if you get that (A Link to the Past is awesome ).

Alright, thanks guys! I was pretty sure it wouldn't work.

One last question, for the SNES emulation. Where would I be able to buy a legit copy of Super Mario World so an emulator could play it?

Of course, that's the only way . You just buy a snes cart backup and you can rip the game to your computer. I'll get a link to a how-to real quick.

Edit: Read that wrong, didn't see the "where". Just go on ebay or Craigslist and pick up a copy of the game. Then back it up to your computer using a device from the link in my next post.
