How do I install a Dolphin Emulator?

After extracting the directory, the Dolphin emulator will be ready to use, so no installation is needed.

Which Dolphin Emulator should I download?

Always download the latest version since it’s usually free from all bugs. Also, pay attention to the system architecture, if you’re using an ARM device use the ARM version of Dolphin and vice versa for the x64-bit version.

Most emulators are perfectly legal since they don’t come with any games, they just let you run them. The issue with emulators is copyright infringement when downloading games from third-party sources.

Instead, you shouldrip Wii gamesthat you own if you want to play them on PC with Dolphin.
