How seriously do you play games with Dolphin?

[Shonumi]

My Dolphin gaming is serious business. I treat my games like the real things, e.g. only saving to the memory card, so I'm not tempted to use save states during, say, a boss fight. It's great that I can play my GC/Wii games in my room while my sister can play the real Wii in the next room at the same time. I'm also into Dolphin because it enhances the graphics to a level beyond the original hardware. Another "enhancement" that I like is that playing in my room recreates the privacy I used to have at my old house when I had a TV in my room and all the game consoles underneath my bunk. Kinda busy right now, so I've only beaten Sonic Adventure 2: Battle right now, but yes, I do play the games fully.
