Archos Gamepad 2 - tomboy101 - 11-27-2014

Hi there, I wanted to ask if anybody had luck of running Dolphin on the Archos Gamepad 2.
I think I've seen videos on youtube of somebody running it. Can't find it anymore though.

When I want to load a game the screen goes black (on screen button appear) and it jumps back into the game selection menu of dolphin after a few seconds.
Am I missing something or is is it just not compatible? I've tried playing around with the few emulation option given, but can't even get into a game.
I've downloaded the latest Dolphin Alpha Free from google play.

The games are running fine on the PC version.

Below is a link to the specs of the Gamepad 2:

I'm going to be blunt. Nobody is running dolphin on that device. You are missing required hardware features.

I expected it not to run at an acceptable frame rate. It's just that it is not starting at all, so I was wondering if I am doing something wrong.

No I LITERALLY mean you can't start it. There's no way, absolute non-starter. Sorry.
