Who should read this guide?
This guide should serve as a quick pointer for first time Dolphin user.A couple of things you should know about Dolphin:
- Previously Dolphin had used the subversion numbering, e.g. Dolphin r7990. In the recent months the developer had switched to git numbering, resulting in a release name such as Dolphin 3.0-458. Higher number means latest version.
- You might find that some games are playable on a certain version, yet unplayable with the subsequent/later versions. So always choose the best version to play the games. For example, Rhythm Heaven Fever will only playble on older version of Dolphin.
- There are a couple of games that require a customized or patched Dolphin version to play properly. E.g. Xenoblade Chronicles.
- To check whether a game is compatible to play in Dolphin, check out their Wiki for a list of compatible Wii games. This list will also contains the issue that the games are having and workarounds for fixing it.
