Nintendo console titles | To identify Nintendo console titles, Dolphin uses a 6-character identifier known as a GameID. There are 4 significant subsets in each GameID: | ||
__NOTOC__ | __NOTOC__ | ||

| [[#Publisher Code|Publisher Code]] (2 characters) – Identifies the publisher | | [[#Publisher Code|Publisher Code]] (2 characters) – Identifies the publisher | ||
|} | |} | ||
In disc dumps all parts of the GameID are directly adjacent which is why Dolphin uses them as a single unit. Nintendo only uses the first 4 characters to identify a game, e.g. in WAD files, Wii title IDs, and product codes. | |||
