Since nintendo and mac are more similar than pc and nintendo, I would assume dolphin runs better on iPad than it's pc counterpart, am I right? Does anyone have experience with this? Does an iPad 4th gen run Wii games at constant 60 fps? What about Gamecube Games? I'm looking to get an iPad soon, I know Macbooks might run Dolphin perfectly(?) but what about iPad 4?

No, you're talking about stuff that are currently impossible.

No, and that will never happen.

That will never happen either.

You should probably spend your money on more useful stuff.

They don't. No computer runs Dolphin perfectly.

Shitty hardware, locked OS which does not even allow JITs, closed ecosystem (== Dolphin wouldn't even be allowed on their app store).
