List of playable games? - Rapper_skull - 11-24-2014

Hello people, I'm new here. I've been using Dolphin on PC for a while without problems and I decided to try it on my Nexus 5. I tried Mario Kart Double Dash, Paper Mario, Super Mario Sunshine, SSBMelee and Zelda Wind Waker. None of them runs fine and they all have very low fps, ranging from 3 to a maximum of 15. Are there some games that works fine with Dolphin for Android or it's really just an experiment? Also, do you think that in the future Dolphin for Android will be more efficient or it's the current hardware that's not enough powerful to run GameCube games?

Read through these forums. Its a bit of hardware limitations, a little bit of drivers. Also protip, snapdragon chips are trash for emulation.

So far on my xperia z1 compact.ive got timespliters 2 working thats at 50fps.games like resident evil 0 and 1 both run at full speed however crash before gameplay begins.also resident evil 4 and crash bandicoot wrath of cortex both are playable but at very low fps.

What settings on TS 2, and which build? I can only get up to about 30 on my Note 3 with the same S800 SoC in it (at 1xIR).

I use the latest buildbot and the standard settings with fast mem enabled.with some levels it does drop to abt 20/30fps.super mario sunshine and luigis mansion does work at a reasonable speed but does have graphical glitches.

Haven't tried anew build for a week or so, those are about 100 builds up on the one I'm using (~820), will have a flail at the newest one.

Edit: Only getting around 25fps on the Note 3, lots of graphical glitches. Also latest build seems to have lost the ability to save games.

I think its a bit early for a playable games list, considering that only one device (the shield tablet) is actually capable of running dolphin accurately and somewhat smoothly. Any qualcomm devices are running extremely poorly, and graphical glitches aren't even dolphin's fault most of the time.

Presumably there are some payable games even now...

But yeah, it's early. I have a Shield Tablet and Note 3 at present, but none of the games I have are playable.

I think like alot of people who have android devices would find these comments rather useful.especially samsung and sony users.i have tested resident evil code veronica on my z1 compact and i get 30fps during gameplay however graphics are that bad its impossible to play.i will test more games and update when i have tested them.using latest build number 956
