I downloaded dolphin 5.0, but my library is empty, realizing that I have to get ISOs/WADs to play it, but I don't know how. If you could reply some steps to getting a game on Dolphin, it would be appreciated. I also thought, if the format isn't ISO/WAD, how do I convert it? Again, let me know with a reply.
Follow this guide to copy games onto your computer: https://dolphin-emu.org/docs/guides/ripping-games/

Following that guide will give you games in ISO or WAD format (unless you use USB Loader GX), but Dolphin does support a number of other formats too (like WBFS, which is what USB Loader GX gives you).

Also, don't download 5.0 but download, extract and use the latest development version from here: https://dolphin-emu.org/download/

5.0 has been out for more than 3 years and has had over 10.000 fixes and enhancements, which makes it actually more stable than the "stable" version.
