Ratings and reviews

Generally pretty darn optimal and one of the best emulators on the market in terms of performance. However it is ABSURD that there's no way to set up analog triggers for touch screen controls unless you download third party software based off of Dolphin. Also having a weird issue where if I start a game with my bluetooth headphones, the audio is pitched down. Fixed by starting a game without headphones, then putting it on after.

Wish there was a way to manually choose where the memory card is stored. Until then, this app gets 3 stars. I would love to use my memory card files from my desktop emulator, but nope. Please let us choose the directory for the memory card. With something like OneDrive or DropBox, this would allow for cloud saves. That would be perfect for Dolphin! Android can be frustrating with allowing apps to access storage on your device, so I get not having it yet. But someday!

it works extremely well and is nearly perfect for an android emulator. However, it's very choppy in some games/parts of them and it's quite battery draining. You should also add an option to disable vibration in some games. But aside from that, this is a MUST HAVE app if your GameCube is broken/you don't have it anymore. I'm finally able to play Monster House for the GameCube again after so long.
