=== Poorly Rendered Text ===
{{Problems/GC Font}}
Small black blips appear around most text. Refer {{issue|8350}}, and {{issue|8653}}. This can be corrected by using the font_ansi.bin font extracted from a real GameCube bios.

=== Accessory Tests / Controller Test ===
=== Accessory Tests / Controller Test ===
* Results in "SI:Unknown command (0x43)" error from Dolphin when the test starts.
* <s>Results in "SI:Unknown command (0x43)" error from Dolphin when the test starts.</s> Resolved sometime before {{revision|5.0-10167}}
* Test fails and displays a "Failed" message post the directional control test.
* The Control Stick test is near impossible to pass without using a real GameCube controller and a Wii U Adapter due to diagonal ranges being over 75.
* "Press the A Button to continue." text appears offset from the black box it presumably should be rendered inside. This can be resolved by using the real GamcCube fonts extracted from a GameCube BIOS.

=== Audio Tests ===
* If using the OpenAL audio backend test audio is only heard well after the test exits, and plays much faster than it should, so the words "Left Channel", "Right Channel", etc are difficult to distinguish and sound more like static. These issues can be resolved if using the XAudio2 backend, though that's not available outside of Windows. Refer {{issue|8348}}.
* The Optical Disc Drive test results in a warning from Dolphin: "Interesting - Software triggered Decrementer exception" when it exits. Refer {{issue|8352}}.

Initially registers speeds far lower than expected (i.e. 0MHz), rerunning the test registers speeds more in line with expectations. Refer {{issue|8353}}.
<s>Initially registers speeds far lower than expected (i.e. 0MHz), rerunning the test registers speeds more in line with expectations.</s> Fixed since at least {{revision|5.0-14095}}. The clock speed is still not the same as hardware. Refer {{issue|8353}}.
