Dolphin with retail games - peterson123 - 09-14-2014
Hello everybody, i'm new to Dolphin, but I have a question regarding retail Wii/GC games. Is it at all possible to connect a Wii to a PC, and have Dolphin detect and play the games from the Wii, instead of using iso files? I am not a huge fan of emulators but Dolphin's graphical capabilities are quite appealing, and I would be very interested in using Dolphin, if I am able to use my retail games with it. I am aware that it is possible to dump the iso files off of retail games, but that is not what I am looking for. If anyone can help me on this subject, that would be great. Thanks.

The only way to connect a Wii to a PC is through FTP, and of course, homebrew apps are needed for that.
