    Makes sense, with how Nintendo has been especially bad lately, may as well keep constantly updating before the inevitable C&D comes

      As i understand it emulator software is largely viewed as legal are long as they don’t ship other people’s IP (decryption keys, bios, etc).

      I don’t think dolphin is doing that so they should be in the clear.

        Dolphin may have uh a certain strong in there that correlates pretty close to a decryption key (legally of course)

    What is Dolphin? Dolphin is a GameCube and Wii emulator with high compatibility across the majority of titles for both platforms. It was first developed as closed source in 2003, and as open source since 2008.

    I had to look it up.

    I’m only enough to remember the game cube was known as Project Dolphin before it was officially revealed. I like the name stuck for this project
