Emulation crashed when launching any of the games. This occurred because Dolphin didn't support soft-resets/multiple dol files. See {{Issue|661}}. This problem was fixed by the merger of the ES_Launch branch in {{revision|3.5-268}}, and broken again by the merger of the FIFO-BP branch in {{revision|3.5-644}}. To play the game, use versions between {{revision|3.5-268}} and {{revision|3.5-644}}, or the workaround below. | |||

:For builds before {{revision|3.5-268}}, the problem can be worked around by making a second ISO, and replacing "main.dol" file in DATA partition of ISO image to either rs5mp1_p, rs5mp2_p or rs5mp3_p.dol depending on which game you would like to play. Then switching between the unaltered ISO and the modified ISO; basically, you are emulating the soft-reset that the Wii would usually do by exiting the game, and then loading the correct DOL manually. All games can be booted using this method. Please remember that you must keep the unaltered Metroid Prime Trilogy ISO to switch games, create your saved games, and choose your difficulty.

=== <s>Slow Speed</s> === | |||
Starting with {{revision|3.5-367}}, the launcher is unable to run at full speed on any computer. The emulator will show 60vps and 100% speed, but the fps and the actual speed of the game will be 10-20fps. Adjusting the Framelimiter cannot correct it, and Accurate Vbeam Emulation makes it even worse. Holding Tab or turning off the Framelimiter eliminates the slowdown, but makes the game run too quickly. Fortunately, the launcher does not require fullspeed, and it has little impact on functionality. See {{issue|5982}}. Fixed by {{revision|3.5-380}}. | |||
