About Dolphin Emulator
Dolphin is the long-running open-source emulator for Nintendo GameCube and Wii consoles, and this is the official Android build from the Dolphin project. It runs games from your own disc backups on a phone, tablet or Android TV box, and can render them at higher resolutions than the original hardware ever did.
The Android version shares its core with the desktop releases, so it benefits from years of accuracy work: a JIT recompiler for ARM64, Vulkan and OpenGL video backends, shader compilation options that cut stutter, and per-game settings. Physical controllers are well supported, and touch overlays cover GameCube pads and Wii Remotes, including motion controls via the phone's sensors.
A modern 64-bit device with a reasonably strong GPU gives the best results; demanding titles may still need tuning. Dolphin ships with no games or system files, so you need to supply your own legally obtained copies.
