hello I want to buy a laptop and want to play Zelda SS and SMG2 mainly, which would you recommend?
both could work?

HP ProBook 4530s B5N72UT Intel Core i5-2450M 2.5GHz, 8GB DDR3, , 1GB AMD Radeon HD 7470M

or +200$

2.3 GHz Intel Core i7-3610QM quad-core processor (3.3 GHz with Turbo Boost Technology; 6 MB L3 cache),750 GB hard disk drive (HDD) with 7200 RPM speed, 8 GB of installed DDR3 RAM (1600 MHz; maximum),NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M graphics with 1 GB of video RAM

Pd sorry for my bad english
Definitely go for the notebook with i7-3610QM // Zelda SS should be playable (with some FPS drops). SMG2 is a very demanding game if you use LLE, SMG2+LLE needs (in most cases) an overlockes Core i5-2500k/i5-3570k.

Zelda SS and SMG2

Neither of them will do , just build a desktop with i5 2500k @ 4.4GHz or i5 3570k @ 4.2GHz
Most Non-gaming notebook overheat with dolphin , don't even think about it
Yeah, go for the Nvidia one, the 7xxx series suck
