=== Constant Wii Remote Disconnects ===
Since {{revision|3.5-471}}, when using the MS Bluetooth Stack (the default bluetooth stack on Windows) Prime 3 will think that the Wii Remote is constantly disconnecting. Pressing a button on the Wii Remote will restore it, but it will disconnect again seconds later. Windows users can disable "Enable Speaker Data" to solve this problem, or move to either the Toshiba Stack or the DolphinBar.

=== Bloom Offset ===
=== Bloom Offset in IR>1 ===
Prime 3 has noticeable bloom offset problems when playing above 1x Native internal resolution. It will have several copies of the bloom spread out from the source, and can be very distracting. The only solution is to disable "Scaled EFB Copy", but this has some issues of its own. See {{issue|5573}}.

=== Dot ===
=== Dot in IR>1 ===
When playing above 1x Native internal resolution, there is a dot in the center of the screen. It's small and easy to ignore, but it's always there. There is no fix for this problem.
When playing above 1x Native internal resolution, there is a dot in the center of the screen. It's small and easy to ignore, but it's always there. It can be hidden along with the helmet and visor display in the game's options.
 
Another workaround for this problem is to put these custom textures into the Dolphin Emulator\Load\Textures folder and enabling the '''Load Custom Textures''' option in the advanced graphics settings.
