Dolphin is an open-source emulator primarily for the GameCube video game console. It is also the first, and currently the only working Wii emulator. Dolphin provides full HD (1080p) gaming with several enhancements and features including a wide variety of controller compatibility, turbo speed, and networked multiplayer. The Dolphin emulator is still in active development with the latest versions also available as a libretro core for RetroArch.
Unlike its near-perfect GameCube emulation capability, the emulation of Wii games is still being improved and is being supported by a very active homebrew scene. With a huge community of developers around the world, this project continues to improve and gain new features to this day. The Dolphin core is compatible with a variety of devices and has been tested on Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Series S.
This software does not come with games and does not support the illegal distribution of game disc images. You must own and acquire the games yourself to be able to use them with Dolphin.
Dolphin Emulator download can be obtained free to play Nintendo Wii. Available for multiple platforms including Windows, Mac, Linux and Android with fastest download speeds on EmulatorDownload.net. This Wii Emulator is in English and can run games online in high quality. Dolphin is developed by Dolphin Emulator Project, F|RES and Henrik Rydgård (ector).
