That's not how emulation works.

This. Emulation requires your computer to simulate the system, not just play the game. It requires a significant amount of power to run games for consoles as old as the Gamecube. Think of it this way - we are unable to create emulators for the Xbox 360 and PS3 that can run at playable speeds even on the most powerful of computers, and they were released 7 years ago.
