as cpu its okish

for dolphin i'd say a bit more then half speed depending on version

By saying "half-speed" does that mean unplayable? Mostly, I'm just trying to figure out if it's worth my time to go through the process of installing the homebrew channel and making archival copies of my games.
depends on the game really. if it isn't a game with alot of action (like super smash or shooters) then who cares Tongue
also, it depends on game really. most games run half speed on my P4 prescot (which is a bit worse then your cpu) but worms blast for example goes full speed cause its a low requirement game Smile

So metroid is probably a no-go, but something like the Megaman Anniversary collection would run fine? Maybe even Harvest Moon: MM?

I'll probably do that, but before I do so I wanted to make sure that installing homebrew and stuff would actually be usable to me.

Oh, and Thanks to everyone in this thread!Smile

Why don't you try other games... Metroid primes are some of the slowest ones in Dolphin
