The engineering that goes into these emulators is pure insanity

Thank God for people like that. What a smart passionate person
After watching this video, I never complained about some nuanced issues with emulators. lol
For real. My eyes hurt after 1 minute.
I generally don't watch yt videos, but that was wildly interesting and amazing work! Had to watch all of it.
How many other emulators have achieved the same? Seems pretty impressive.
Rpsc3 I think?
Unfortunately not. They have everything capable of booting to at least something, but not everything is playable.
bsnes/ares, Flycast, Mesen, and I think BigPEmu all have 100% compatibility with all released games.
Also Dolphin themselves achieved 100% Gamecube playability a while ago AFAIR.
And yeah. It is very impressive.
Congratulations to all the Dolphin contributators, I loved playing Metroid Prime on your emu!
Official site says 3 still aren't at that level yet.
I could only find Wii u menu that doesn't work because it's not a Wii u emulator in the broken category
Queue Nintendo trying to snipe it down...
