New to Dolphin - In need of guidance!

silmes · February 13th, 2012, 11:01

Hi guys/girls!

I am a gamer that is in the start of entering dolphin emulation.
I am not totally new to emulation, I have no problem running ePSXe and Project 64 on my HDTV. It all works fine.

However, I need some guidance to my start with Dolphin, and I have a couple of questions. If someone could answer them, I would be most thankful.

1. Do you think my system can run dolphin on my 40-inch HDTV, just like Project64 and ePSXe?

MY SYSTEM:
Intel i7 2.66 ghz
16 mb ram
Nvidia GTX 295 (dual GPU)

2. How is game compatibility on dolphin? Is for example Metal Gear and Star Fox Adventure fully playable?

3. I have an XBOX wireless controller. Will I be able to use that succesfully in Dolphin.

4. Is there anything else I should think about when it comes to emulating with Dolphin?

Thank you for looking into this.

1) Yes
2) Very Good, not sure on those two titles but I've never had any issues so far
3) Yes but you will need a Bluetooth adapter, get a wired pad it will save you the cost of batteries
4) Nope, any troubles will either be hardware or software specific. Iron out any glitches as you encounter them
