I found out someone I know in real life uses dolphin, yet without me telling them to. Previously whenever emulators have come up as a subject, I've always got something along the lines of 'LOL!!! Nintendo made no good games ever!!! Why would you want to emulate Wii/GC, n00b???'.

>Caring what other people think
This is a fatal flaw. Try your hardest to avoid it whenever possible. Of course that's for opinions. If they're stating something that's factually wrong and trying to spread it by all means go nuts.

Why? And how?
Edit: Feels good to be in Florida cold people:
25 degrees Fahrenheit is warm this time of the year for us up north. Although North Dakota et al, wtf, that's cold :p At least it's better than whatever Canada's getting.

https://code.google.com/p/nintendont/
The only thing Nintendon't does that Devolution does not do is allowing you to play games without owning the original disc. It's basically a warezloader, just like most of the stuff written by warezmaster crediar.
For more fun, for the last 6 months he has been releasing "beta" versions of his software as binaries. It turns out, looking at his source code release, that he's been using GPLv2 code from not only one open source project but two (mini, and... Dolphin!). Why does that not surprise me?
EDIT: Actually, Devolution works a lot better than Nintendon't. Same situation with Devolution vs. DIOS MIOS: crediar basically wrote a worse version of Devolution for the Wii with warez support. Please don't mention his work here.
Devolution is worse.
You need to own a Wii with gamecube ports (hard to get nowadays),dump the game, then it saves something onto your WiiMote, then you need to sync it to your WiiU again and hope it works.
And worst of all, you need to do this with every single fucking game.
I own all the original discs for the games I play and this is getting on my nerves a lot. I can't play it because my Wii with Gamecube support broke.
Yep. Too much work. I wouldn't use it even if i only wanted to play games i own in working condition.
Devolution is cool and all, but the pointless wasting of my time for each and every game is not. And in the case where you need separate hardware just to use it? Get out. And oh god i hope your disk isn't scratched up so it can't read it, because even if you've already backed it up properly before, you still can't play it because oh no, we can't let anyone use this for piracy. Better restrict legitimate uses just to prevent piracy, even though there's plenty of alternatives already, and you're not really stopping it at all.
This is the second time I lost a post after clicking away from the page when it was half done. (I use firefox. Is chrome better?) (I'm trying Lazarus.)
Since I don't feel like retyping my post for the second time, I'll just link to a couple of interesting readings.

I like the idea.... but the chance of the industry adopting a standard like that is extremely tiny.
Ingenious! And totally won't work.
That is what everyone says, they love it, but don't think it will work XD

In chrome it claims it'll remember it when you go back/forwards again, but it doesn't always succeed. I know this because I have a really useful back button on my mouse, which, while being really useful, occasionally gets pressed by accident when I move my keyboard into it.
