Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Hi guys

anyone knows best apk (( daily build )) that can play gamecube on my galaxye note 3 ? special paper mario world ,, WOOOOOWWWW

I LOOOOVE PPPAAPPER MARIOOOOO

Protip: Don't expect to be able to properly play any games in Dolphin for Android until at least 2016. We can barely get it to run well on PCs, let alone wimpy little smartphones.

what ?!
2016 !!!!!!!
are u f*** kidding me ?

Android devices aren't powerful enough right now. We're not kidding about saying that it will take a couple more years.

The next gen monster Nvidia Tegra K1 or whatever name Nvidia call is only on par with Intel HD 4400 which is low-end GPU
We all know Nvidia K1 > Qualcomm snapdragon 805 > Qualcomm snapdragon 800
I don't know about you but neither 1x Internal Resolution (IR) nor 2x (IR) could satisfy my eyes . Most high-end phone have built in 1080p display , running games at lower resolution will make the display look so pixelated and it really irritate me
This is similar to "1xIR on 1080p phone" :

Edit : Oops , PSP 1xIR (PPSSPP) = 480x272 (The first one that came to my mind , shame on me) . Not Wii/GC 1xIR(640x528) . No wonder it look so bad on my phone
But leave the GPU performance aside , the CPU performance is so horrible (below Intel Pentium Dual Core T2410 @ 2.0GHz - base on Core 2 duo series ). I know the fact that Android is an extreme light-weight OS but still ...

No, no one is kidding you. No need to get pissy about it. Don't like it? Build a super smartphone and the Android Dolphin yourself.

There are still lags on low end phones.

Drastic was written from zero, aiming speed since it's birth. They didn't release the source, but I'm pretty sure that a lot of speed hacks exist (many games I tested with Drastic had minor graphical issues, fog isn't emulated in any game, etc). Also, NDS uses ARM architecture, the emulation overhead is much minor when running on Android, seen that almost all Android phones/tablets uses ARM processors.

Comparing to NDS, GC/Wii games are more demanding for a lot of factors (more RAM, faster CPU/GPU, more graphics to handle, etc), and PC requirements aren't that low, so Dolphin doesn't reach playable speeds with any phone/tablet released currently...

This game doesn't exist. Are you referring to Super Mario World? If yes, you're better off using a SNES emulator...

Dolphin is running again with open gles 3 on version 913
There seems to be some speed improvements as well.
Keep up the good work devs
