Test Entries | |||||

Revision | OS | CPU | GPU | Result | Tester |
r4089 | Windows XP x86 | Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 @ 2.13GHz | nVidia GeForce 7600GT | The graphics are perfect with no bugs and the game always runs at full speed (50/60 FPS). This game doesn't need a hefty PC to run at full speed, i have the audio throttle enabled to keep the game at a steady speed so it doesn't run at 80 FPS.
The audio is good but can be buggy sometimes. You can create a save game and play right through the game as you would on a Wii. Pikmin Wii (NPC) on Dolphin Wii/GC Emulator (720p HD) |

r7128 | Windows 7 x64 | Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 @ 3.2GHz | nVidia GeForce GTX 275 896MB | Tested NA version, runs fine, with minimal glitches. Some slowdown, but very playable. Tested through start of second level. Occasional nasty slowdown after changing to fullscreen, difficult to replicate. Shadow flicker on some grass types. Some sound crackling with DSP HLE. | MaJoR |
r7408 | Windows 7 x64 | Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 @ 3.2GHz | nVidia GeForce GTX 275 896MB | Runs better in r7408, but still has some glitches. Slowdown at start of a stage and flicker with grass are both gone. Sound crackling remains. Observed nasty slowdown when turning on "EFB Enable CPU Access". | MaJoR |
