Gamecube safe file location - EpicLonk - 02-10-2016

Hey there,

does anybody know the location of the gamecube games in dolphin?
Im searching specifically for the one of Pokemon: Gale of darkness, i could not find an answeryet, it would really help me.
I want to export it to my usb stick so i can import it to another pc and play my safefile there. I know where the wii saves are located, but i couldnt find the GC saves...

From the title and the last sentence, i think you mean the gamecube saves, not games.
They are located in User/GC.
Depending on the setting, it either might be as MemoryCardA.REGION.raw (raw memory card dump) or as a GCI-File in User/GC/REGION/Card A/

REGION is the region of the game (eg. EUR if PAL, USA if NTCS or JAP if NTCS-J)
The User-Folder is on Windows usually "Documents/Dolphin Emulator"
If you use the .raw-File (in Config -> Gamecube -> Device Settings a Slot is set to "Memory Card" instead of "GCI Folder"), Dolphin can export and import the saves from/to .GCI-Files, located in Tools -> Memory Card Manager.
