You're not doing anything wrong, there is really no game that is playable on dolphin at this point. Wait for another dolphin release next decade..

Somebody doesn't have much faith in the emulator coders (http://dolphin-emu.com/forums/uploads/post-4-1105658059.jpg). Mario Power Tennis does work ingame (although admittingly not fast, you make it seem like no games work at all); however, I'm not sure if it is a default or workaround process however.

Perhaps you could try to change the ISO file to a GCM - that might be the issue.

Open the folder your ISOs are in and click "tools" on the menu bar, and select "folder options". Click the 'View' tab and uncheck an option in there for "hide extensions for known file types".

Then go back to your ISO and select rename, but change the ".ISO" at the end to ".GCM". Confirm all changes. :)

You can play with either. If your version of Dolphin has only the provided keyboard plugin, you can grab njoy at the Dolphin website (http://dolphin-emu.com) and use that.

Don't expect very high speeds out of the emulator though, as there are major hardware handicaps with regards to the commands. But you'll certainly get a taste of the game.

ok so this is what happends after i rename it from .ISO to .GCM

Does it freeze there? That's a standard Gamecube selection screen for which TV signal you have. Simply select 60Hz if it has not stopped emulation.

It's not that i do not have faith, it's just that no work is being done right now and i don't think it will be till after 2010 for another release. Or a release that works well.

Best solution possible at the moment, buy a gamecube or wii.
