:::We at one point had thought about including details such as ISO size, aspect ratio support, audio ucode, etc. in the info boxes, but in general felt it would be too difficult to assign appropriately across all titles. Doing so would not just mean labeling these 60 GC games, but also assessing 4:3/16:9 support across all the Wii games. At this time no one is willing to put in the effort to do so. To really do things properly we'd also need to assess the state of the Widescreen hack across games, which actually raises an issue here. There are similar sections for games that break with the Widescreen hack but have AR codes that provide better support. Should those continue to be maintained in the "Patches" sections, or should they be revised to fit into the new "Emulation Info" ones.

::::Heading levels are for main articles only. You can template this markup, but it is very frowned upon just by any other person/group that uses the MediaWiki software. It's one of those cases ''just because you can doesn't mean you should''.

::::Maybe the infobox needs an overhaul in design to have information relevant to Dolphin instead of just general stuff, which you could find on Wikipedia (you even provide a link to the Wikipedia page). A lot of the current elements, such as publisher, controller support, etc., is something that should be in emulation information. You are welcome to try overhauling this in [[Template:Infobox VG sandbox]]. As for widescreen hack and AR codes, this is where <code><nowiki>{{Outdated|Test widescreen hack for issues. If issues exist, develop AR codes}}</nowiki></code> shines ([[:Category:Games with outdated information]])! All Wii games are 4:3 and 16:9 compliant with Nintendo's specifications. GCN games, only ~60 titles natively from what I learned. How many GCN games exist? --[[User:Wildgoosespeeder|Wildgoosespeeder]] ([[User talk:Wildgoosespeeder|talk]]) 01:40, 9 November 2015 (CET)
