Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Up to this point I've gotten everything running smoothly I think. However when it tells me to press A at the start of the game, this message comes up and I'm unsure as to what it wants. I've seen other people play this game and this message not come up, I guess it might be related to the control scheme? Any help would be much appreciated.

well if you've never played the game before it's most likely asking you to format the memory card

Found out the problem, didn't have classic controller "connected" under options and its mandatory for this game.
