DolphinUWP - A GameCube and Wii Emulator

Dolphin is an emulator for running GameCube and Wii games on Windows, Linux, macOS, recent Android devices, and UWP/Xbox (Because of this fork). It's licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License, version 2 or later (GPLv2+).

Please read the FAQ before using Dolphin.

System Requirements

UWP (Universal Windows Platform)

Recommended: Xbox Series S or Xbox Series X

Minimum: Xbox One, Xbox One S, or Xbox One X (expect games to not run well on these platforms)

Building for Windows

Use the solution file Source/dolphin-emu.sln to build DolphinUWP on Windows. DolphinUWP targets the latest MSVC shipped with Visual Studio or Build Tools. Other compilers might be able to build DolphinUWP on Windows but have not been tested and are not recommended to be used. Git and latest Windows SDK must be installed when building. If you need more help go to the building guide here

Make sure to pull submodules before building:

git submodule update --init --recursive

The "Release" solution configuration includes performance optimizations for the best user experience but complicates debugging Dolphin. The "Debug" solution configuration is significantly slower, more verbose and less permissive but makes debugging Dolphin easier.
