Virtual Console games in Dolphin
==Virtual Console games in Dolphin==
A number of N64 games were released for the Wii's Virtual Console service throughout its lifespan. While the emulators at the heart of each Virtual Console title were of average accuracy (rather than using one generic emulator used for every game, each title had an emulator specifically tailored to that game), they were good enough to render the games in full, playable capacity with few to no glaring errors. Many of these titles are emulated well through Dolphin. For a good while, due to persistent long-standing inaccuracies in N64 emulators and plugins, this was the best way to emulate certain N64 games, particularly Pokemon Pokémon Snap and Mario Tennis. The system requirements are much higher than running them on regular N64 emulators, but it's doable for many games. Today, regular N64 emulators and plugins have advanced to the degree that this has become unnecessary, relegating this method of N64 game emulation to little more than a curiosity, at least on PC.
The following games are on the N64 Virtual Console for Wii:
* Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber
* Paper Mario
* Pokemon Pokémon Puzzle League
|
* Pokemon Pokémon Snap
* Sin & Punishment (English)
* Star Fox 64
