punch-out wii
tatsunkio vs capcom
castlevania judgement
fire emblem on gamecube and wii

let me know here and thanks for looking and replying if you can.

odd my picture did not work... oh well i hope i explained everything right.

can someone answer me? not to be rude other's got answered and i did not seems unfair for some reason.

Melee should run fine, anything else I wouldn't expect to run well.

Nvidia Geforce G105M is 2009 mobile GPU which is not a good sign
1st generation Core i5 was released in that year... So
Maybe some 2d tittles can run , most games won't run well . Laptop CPU , you need to have at least 4th gen Core i5 Haswell (minimum) , Recommended Specs : 8th gen Core i5 8xxx series or AMD Ryzen 4xxx series

all right thanks time to invest in a new one. if i need help with i'll ask here.

all right i looked at best buy and found this puppy.

not sure if links are allowed but i'm going post any way.

the games i said before will still stand so let me know.

Should run very well.

That should be fine, the Acer Nitro line has pretty good cooling so you shouldn't have thermal throttling issues

i hate to ask one more thing but i want to compare 2 laptop's if that's ok. here's the other one.

what one is better i'm trying to compare the two by myself but no luck.

For Dolphin, they'll perform almost exactly the same as they have very similar single core performance. The Asus Ryzen that you linked is way too expensive at that website for what it is. Get it from Amazon with more RAM and SSD space with a better GPU for less: https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-IPS-Type-GeF...B0863DW238

These two computers will be similar in Dolphin, but as overall computer the ASUS is better because it has more cores and a better GPU/RAM/SSD. But you're paying almost twice as much for it. If you only care about Dolphin, get the Acer (it'll still be good for PC gaming and general usability). But if you have the budget, the ASUS is better overall. In their price brackets, both are good so it comes down to how much you want to spend.
