Some Nintendo Wii models[https://old.reddit.com/r/wii/comments/qxho3x/which_nintendo_wii_is_backwards_compatible_usa/] are capable of reading the GameCube discs (as mentioned in [[#Wii Optical Disc]] section) and backwards compatible with its games.

*Dolphin emulator was originally a GameCube emulator and supports GameCube games. ~~However,~~ it is highly unlikely Dolphin supports the Wii's backwards compatibility mode.

*Dolphin emulator was originally a GameCube emulator and supports GameCube games. Dolphin emulator doesn't support the Wii's backward compatibility feature in the same way the physical console does. You cannot load a GameCube disc image from within the emulated Wii System Menu and have it function like a physical Wii. It is highly unlikely Dolphin supports the Wii's backwards compatibility mode feature in the near future.

*Virtual Wii supports GameCube games but due to incompatibility with Wii U's optical drive with GameCube discs, you need to use [[homebrew]] solutions. See [https://old.reddit.com/r/wiiu/comments/vd9el0/if_a_wii_u_can_simulate_a_wii_and_a_wii_can_play/ this reddit thread] for more information.
