Dude.... it's some guy with 1 post saying he 'played' (what does that mean to him?) it for '5 seconds'.

i haven't tested it myself but i'd bet that an advanced game such as that wouldn't work

Actually, if you check the screenshots thread or this thread, you'll see some screen shots posted by CKemu. Also, in this thread CKemu says that he played MP2 for 4 hours with no crash (and that was played at less than 10 fps. D: ). Though, someone else tried to play it, and it wasn't stable. CKemu said that another time, he played it, and it crashed when he went into the morph ball. So, you should be able to get it working, but it's not stable. As for how to get it working, I have no idea. Check the screenshots thread is all I can suggest.

Though, if you want to play Metroid Prime 1, that's a different story. Apparently, it crashes if you try to move (or that's I what I recall reading). Though Dolphin's site does have a compatability page, you can also check The Dolphin Game List (which also contains a link to an INI file for Dolphin at the bottom of the page), which is a page set up by CKemu. It looks pretty good to me, and seems to read easier than the compatibility page that Dolphin's site has.

Anyway, sorry I couldn't be of more help, but hopefully this will get you going in the right direction. Also, is that thorough enough for you DOGG? But yes, Rizzler, do a little more searching. And good luck with getting it running. Mouser X over and out.
