Hey, I will buy this laptop tomorrow :

Asus R752LAV-TY141H

43,94 cm (17.3")
1600 x 900 Pixels
Windows 8
65W
6 GB DDR3L-SDRAM 1600 MHz
Intel HD Graphics 4400
i5-4210U 1,7 GHz - 2,7 GHz

It is enough for gamecube games and a few wii games (xenoblade essentially) ? Thanks for replies.
No, not even close, what's your budget? we'll find something better.
Really ? 'cause I've seen this youtube video who runs on the same CPU and GPU and it seems it works fine at a stable 30fps.

The main problem is that I don't want to order a laptop on Internet, so I have to looks after what's on shops near to me.

Is the CPU or the GPU the problem ?
CPU as long as you don't use very high IR
I just want to play in the original condition, maybe juste in 900p but that's all, no need for AA or upgrading textures, stuff like that.
Do not buy any laptop that come with the "u" letter
i5 4210u . "U" stands for ultra low voltage CPU , it's i5 but it's weaker than a normal i3 due to poor clock speed
If you're short on budget . Just buy a laptop that has i5 4200M (2.5->3.0GHz turbo) or i5 4300M (2.6 -> 3.2GHz turbo)
Well, that will be a problem, because all the laptop I'm looking after have u CPU.
Not to mention Intel HD 4400 run slower than HD 4600...
So this laptop with these specs absolutely not runs Dolphin in the slightest ?
Well it will run of course, just not full speed
