Sad 
I've tried everything i can think to do ... but i loaded up my Xenoblade Chronicles NTSC onto my mac book... everything looks great... but the fps is ridiculously slow once i get out into the open world... i have a macbook with mac osx snow leopard 10.6.8 and dolphin 3.0... would osx lion and a newer or newest version of dolphin and 4 GB RAM rather than my 2 GB RAM help this at all or is it really necessary to have a godlike computer for this thing? please help me ... i love this game ... easier on my eyes on my laptop...

You can try to overclock to get more speed or buy a new PC.

You're going to have to figure out the overclocking yourself and if it's safe/worth it for you to do that or not. You technically can use OSX, but Windows x64 will perform better. Either way, with your current setup, you may gain a little extra speed by overclocking but a faster processor is needed. Try some other games and see what speeds you get.

No, you can't change out laptop processors. Without knowing which i7 you're talking about, I'd say the game would run much better, but maybe not full speed.
