'''''Skylanders: Giants''''' is a 2012 video game in the ''Skylanders'' series, and a direct sequel to the 2011 game [[Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure]]. The game involves connecting a physical toy to the video game console through a "Portal of Power"; whichever toy is used creates a respective character in the game. New to ''Skylanders Giants'' are "Giants", as the name suggests, which are larger toys with new gameplay elements revolving around them. Toy figures from the first game are also forward compatible with ''Giants'', although there are also new versions, called "Series 2", which have more powerful attributes than the originals. The game also has a new and improved "Battle Mode", for head-to-head play, featuring more areas and gameplay options.

Dolphin is currently not capable of emulating USB connectivity, preventing Dolphin from communicating with a Skylander Portal, which is used for placing the Skylander toys to play as the characters. Therefore, it won't work. See {{issue|5153}}.
