OK i have a Wii set capable of ripping games from, and i've recently upgraded my computer (quite a bit) and i'm sure you get a 1000 of these posts a week but i'd just like to know if it will be worth the effort emulating the games on my computer, i mean i've heardstories/seen vids of 1080p gameplay on the computer. SO would anyone please mind telling me what kind of performance and quality i'm likely to get on;

Super Mario Bros Wii
Legend of Zelda WW and TP
Super Smash Brothers Brawl and/or Melee
Super Mario Galaxy and/or Sunshine
Metroid Prime Trilogy

My rig is;

CPU - E8500 @ 3.8ghz Cooled by Thermalright Black 120 (1fan)
MoBo - Asus Striker Exreme
Ram - 6gb DDR2
GPU - Sparkle Nvidia 9800gtx+ (upgrading soon)
2 Sata HDDs one for OS other for game storage

if i've missed anything else important please let me know, any help would be great. Thanks in advance Smile

Well a few of those games you listed still have problems being run by the emulator seeing its not close to being complete guess you could say its in its youth. BUt to get 1080p all you have to do is set resolution to 1920x1080
That being if you have a monitor or tv that can go into that resolution.

Id also recomend looking at this http://www.dolphin-emu.org/support.html
