Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Hey,
I want to have Windows shortcuts to specific games.
Is there some way that I can either open the .iso files directly with Dolphin and have them launch straight away, without having to open the Dolphin application?
Or could I have a specific Dolphin shortcut to launch the game without going to the Dolphin main window, the way Steam handles it's shortcuts?
Thanks,
Eury.

There's one way I know of.

Go to your Dolphin Directory and create a new txt file. In that, type this:


Save the file, and then change the name to Mario Game.BAT (use the game name, so you know what game the bat file will be running).

Now, create a shortcut to that bat file wherever you want, and run that file. It will launch dolphin and the game.

To link to another game, just copy and paste that file and change the path to another game.

You can just use a regular shortcut with the above added.

Works perfect, thanks people.

Its just makes the shortcut for you in steam.
and using steam UI (more so in big picture mode) makes it kind of purdy. (and a little more console like)
