Now if someone brings Dolphin (GC/Wii emulator) to Android - that would be special.


won't happen.

I dont see why it wouldn't happen. Its looks like people are working on it though.

"It has required months of work to even get it to this working of a state."

So I think it is more a proof of concept. ARMs a magnitudes slower than current x86-processors which are required for dolphin, leave aside GPU. I have a git-clone on my work-pc and never stumbled over something android-related so I thought no one would try this. When you watch the video it sure shows that rendering takes seconds per frame.

Overall, there is one thing to get a working emulator. Another thing is to get it to run at decent speed which I doubt will be available in less than 3 years.
