The fact that the Wii's slightly more powerful doesn't increase its games' requirements, but the amount of things that make Dolphin have to do things that take a while (e.g... CPU/GPU pipeline flushes?) will, and GameCube games actually tend to be even worse in that regard due to them having to do more tricks like that to get the game to run well on real hardware.

But, rest assured, once there's a cycle-accurate GameCube/Wii emulator, you can be certain that Wii games will generally run slower than GameCube games. Tongue
Thanks for clarifying.

What about my graphics card? Is it decent enough? Been told a 780 (SLI) is the best combination on mobile systems.
