How do you mean? Dolphin has support for the Wii's Virtual Console which has about 21 N64 titles. There might be a few more N64 titles that could work when using injection, but the majority of N64 games simply isn't supported on the Wii and therefore also not on Dolphin. There are a few GameCube titles you could consider as N64 games such as the first Animal Crossing and both Zelda 64 disc compilations, but that's about it for the N64.

The only other way I know to have access to the rest of the N64's library is through using on emulator such as Wii64 or Not64, if we can presume either emulator fully works. But that seems kinda counterproductive, as you would be emulating an console (Wii / Dolphin) to emulate another console (N64 / Wii64 / Not64). It might be more practical in that case just to use an emulator such as Project64 directly. Unless using Wii64 or Not64 has some benefits for using on Dolphin I am not aware of?

It does kinda depend which titles you want to play. If it is just the most populair ones, chances are those are included in the Virtual Console, except for the RareWare classics such as Banjo-Kazooie, Banjo-Tooie and Donkey Kong 64... Man... We are never going to see them back on a Nintendo system, are we? At least Donkey Kong 64 returned to the Wii U's Virtual Console. So that's a start.

I just mean that i play my nintendo 64 games on dolphin.

I only play super mario 64, ocarina of time and majoras mask. They seem to play pretty well. Of course, i also use dolphin for my gamecube games.

Well, as long as you are aware not all N64 titles are available for the Wii (and therefore Dolphin). Just the more popular ones.

If you want to play a N64 title that's not supported by the Virtual Console (or the few GameCube games that use wrapped N64 roms) you would likely need to use an emulator like Project64.
