[[Dolphin]] is the only option for Wii emulation. This is probably due to the project going open-source, allowing more developers to pursue it early in the lifespan of the console. It's updated on a near-daily basis and is very goodcompatible, barring some noticeable issues with GameCube games. System requirements are high. In addition, it is recommended to sync a Wii remote to play games, mainly because it can be difficult mapping the motion controls to a controller.

==Wii System Menu Emulationemulation==
Dolphin is capable of running the system menu. To get the system menu, one needs to use [http://www.wiibrew.org/wiki/BootMii BootMii] to dump the NAND of the Wii and import it. Refer to the [https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=NAND_Usage_Guide NAND usage guide on the Dolphin wiki] for more details.
Custom servers for some of the more popular games exist thanks to the [https://wiimmfi.de Wiimmfi] project. However, some popular servers ban emulator users who drop frames since it can give some unfair competitive advantages. There are various No-Intro sets that include DLC data for the games that used to have it that can be installed.
===DS Connectivityconnectivity===
An unadvertised feature of the Wii is being able to connect to the [[Nintendo DS emulators|Nintendo DS]] (and by extension, the DSi and the 3DS through their respective retro-compatibility features). A few DS titles<ref>[[Wikipedia:Mii#Nintendo DS]]</ref> can do it, including but not limited to:
* ''Mii Channel'' (a hidden feature that can be used in conjunction with a 3DS's Mii Maker application or some DS games)
