Progress Continues
We've already had 21531 updates since Dolphin 5.0. Keep up with Dolphin's continuing progress through the Dolphin Blog: February, March, and April 2024 Dolphin Progress Report. |
The Dolphin Emulator Wiki needs your help! Dolphin can play thousands of games, and changes are happening all the time. Help us keep up! Join in and help us make this the best resource for Dolphin. |
(There is no title on the wiki listed as requiring Skip Idle, so let's just purge it here if it's been removed, especially here since it's still a sandbox.) |
