    Okay, you really are the best. I’ve recently gotten into the whole modding/emulation scene with Nintendo consoles and you’ve been beyond helpful with just about anything I could possibly attempt or even think of. Especially when I’m someone who is absolute shit with computers and can’t tell my ass from my face when it comes to technology. Thank you, Scott.

    One thing u should do before start any emulator is create their portable app version.
    For dolphin just create a txt file named (portable) inside its folder it will make dolphin creates all its files inside its own folder instead of using the %appdata% folder. it makes things more organized and easier for troubleshoot.
    all emulators has this.
    Congratz on the 40K !

    Hey scott! Cool to see a dolphin guide. I will say, you can use your keyboard for the games but if you need to do actions fast like ground pounding in DKC Returns then you need to map the shake input to multiple keys. 3 usually works best

    So I was watching your guide to home brew on the Wii, and was wondering. I have a game that I love a lot, but little me decided to not take care of it and now, coming back to play the game I suffer from the unable to read disc. My question is if I back up the game will I be able to play it and it will continue to save my progress in the game or is it strictly a back up? Also love the videos.

    i would do auto, not force 16:9. force 16:9 doesnt render gamecube games in 16:9, it just streches the 4:3 image into 16:9. if you do auto, the wii games will be the 16:9, but the gamecube games will stay the proper 4:3

      using USB Loader GX if you have a physical copy of a game you want to use on dolphin go on your Wii and open USB loader then put the game you want to turn to digital in your Wii there should be a text prompt asking if you want to download the game on USB loader if not click the plus button at the bottom left corner and the prompt will ask you to download the game once done you can power off the Wii take out your SD card or usb depending on where you keep your game for the loader plug it into your computer and open your folder where you put your games then you should see a folder with the game name and title id copy the game folder to the folder you have games for dolphin go into dolphin select the folder and the games should load hope this helps.
