Ten Years of Dolphin

[@icee1683]

It's hard to believe that next year, Dolphin would hit its 20th anniversary.

[@Espadasilenciosa]

The aniversary would be the perfect moment to release Dolphin v6.0. It has been 6 years since the prior stable version, at some point they'll have jump versions

And it just so happens that Dolphin and PPSSPP were founded by the same developer: ector. He's awesome like that.

@soldier1142 I can run everything 60fps 480p and most things 60fps 720p on my iPhone so maybe just get an iPhone and not an android

[@nowee1953]

@soldier1142 Ram is generally worthless in regards to Dolphin, your cpu/gpu matter the most.

[@ZohondeKids]

shoopdahoop22 PCSX2 Isn't too bad and supports about 3000 games so it's kinda good, Of course when coding. The job is never done and their will always be bugs.

[@MiddleClasshole77]

PCSX2 has been really sad for a long time, because it's almost a good emulator. Dolphin really does steamroll over most other emulators, I'm sure that Dolphin devs get high level jobs using their Dolphin work. It's a model of excellency that any aspiring emulator dev team ought to emulate (lol).

Ten years of ten years of Dolphin

[@RoddyDev]

First playable Gamecube game in an emulator: The Wind Waker. First playable WiiU game in an emulator? The Wind Waker. Illuminati confirmed.

[@ZohondeKids]

whoopsifarted Maybe cause the wind waker was/is a popular game and that happened to have the most optimized code for emulating. Also I think CEMU was made with some Wii code but I am not sure.

[@RoddyDev]

Zohonde Kids || Yea that would be it.

[@ZohondeKids]

whoopsifarted I'd imagine, Since WII U's code is built off the wii allowing it backwards compatibility anyway.

[@RoddyDev]

Zohonde Kids || Yea that would be it.

[@dankmoo]

How would being made with Wii code even be relevant in a WiiU emulator and the game it works? That's just silly.

[@CHEFBOYARDEEZNUTS1]

I'm extremely proud of the dolphin team, they deserve a lot more credit for their work, all I hear is people complaining about it, so Thank You Dolphin team!!!!

[@GIGACHAD-qh1yi]

0:20 - 8:10 We went from "Glitchier than Skate 3" to "OMG This emulator is incredible." Really, Good job on this. On A good enough computer, You could play Wii and GC games without the slowdowns of the real consoles, enhance the graphics for HD video output and other stuff, This one single emulator is just perfect.

[@EV3KO]

thank you for making dolphin. it was the very first app that let me get on the wii menu and play wii games! including the firdst time i played wii sports (resort) and others

[@Laenthor]

I discovered dolphin around 2010 but I couldn't play it until 2012 because I still had a shitty windows xp. I tried playing melee on it, ran at an attrocious 3fps but it ran! then I got a new pc, played a shit ton of games (hell even beat xenoblade chronicles on dolphin instead of wii). Then a year ago I needed a laptop for school, so I got a powerful beast and now I can play my favourite games with gorgeous hd texture packs and I just found out about dolphin 5.0 a week ago. Thanks for the hard work dolphin team! You make my life!

My friends and I live quite far apart from each other, so visiting is something that happens once or twice a year if at all. Dolphin Netplay builds have enabled us to actually play smash together despite living all over the country. Thank you so much Dolphin Team. You're great.

20 years of Dolphin now. Now I am feeling really old lol

[@just-fun-stuff6753]

I knew this emulator for some time, but never had the hardware to try it, also didnt knew it really is that "Old". This year, i finally got some hardware to run it and man, this piece of software is totally awesome :) You did awesome work with dolphin.

Thank you for helping us preserve gaming history! Undoubtedly one of the greatest emulators ever!!

[@CanaldoZenny]

I can't thank the Dolphin Team enough for the Dolphin Emulator. First tried Dolphin 2.0 back in 2012 on my old PC (Pentium Dual Core E2180 2,0GHz, 4 GB DDR2 Ram, 9500GT 1 GB DDR3), to play Sonic 4 Ep I and Sonic Adventure 2: Battle. It was super slow. I had to render on the Dolphin's screen and windommed. Now with my new PC (Pentium G4560, 8 GB DDR4 Ram, GT 1030 2 GB GDDR5) i can easily play many GC and Wii games i never once played before! Its magical because in my country no one had a GCN, PS2 won by miles here! I finished Super Mario Sunshine, Galaxy 1 and Sonic Colors on Dolphin, and i'm now playing Galaxy 2. Thank you!

[@uniqhnd23]

thankyou dolphin team! by far the most simple, stable and functional emulator of any gen 6 console.

[@dlib89]

Thanks for all you guys did on the emulator over all those years :) As many here, i never thought i would ever play and finish a gamecube game like RE Remake and RE 0 due being exclusives for the console and not having enough money for the console... Really thanks! You people do wonders!!! (But opengl still a flawed backend on many games, even being the fastest, doesnt matter if is wii or gc, so i hope for a better care from now on for our great open fast backend)

[@jaiiclipped805]

damn i cant beleive this was almost a decade ago now.

[@kargaroc386]

Before (roughly) 2011, PCs that could run Dolphin at a reasonable speed cost a fortune. Basically it was "Can it run Crysis?", except Dolphin. Many jokes were made, particularly on extreme overclocking videos. Years went by, and by early 2011, it finally became reasonably affordable. Around the time 3.0 was released, I built my PC, specifically to run Dolphin at full speed. Finally I could run Dolphin at full speed! And it's amazing. The first time I played WW in HD blew my mind.
