→GameCube Game Disc
The GameCube is not able to be used as a general DVD player, except for the [[#Panasonic_Q|Panasonic Q]] which is a uniquely customized GameCube with DVD capability that was released only in Japan.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_optical_discs#GameCube_Game_Disc]
*Dolphin has support for GameCube Game Disc dumps/[[Save_disk_space_for_ISOs#GameCube_.2F_Wii|images]]. But unfortunately most regular optical drives for PCs are unable to read Gamecube & Wii discs, so you need to rip your discs. However you can use some out-of-print models of DVD drives which may read GC and Wii discs but even then you'll need a compatible software tool like Rawdump or Friidump to dump it. See [[Ripping_games]] page for more information.
*See [[Home_Media_Player#Emulators|this dedicated page]] for more information about home media playback support for emulation softwares.
