Updating compatibility ratings

Ratings are based on emulation compatibility for the latest development version of the master branch. These ratings are universal, used throughout the wiki, forum, and the main Dolphin site.

Dolphin Emulator Wiki

In the same way as Dolphin, this wiki is a community driven project. Anyone can edit any page; even this main page! A lot of time and work is needed to make this the best resource available. One single person is not capable of achieving this. With everyone's help we can achieve our goals. Therefore, every bit of information is welcome and appreciated.
