If you have the capabilities then, yes, it is the version to play. I originally played the game on my Wii for my first two play throughs. This third playthrough I played half-way on Wii and then switched to Dolphin when I got my PC built. I'm trying to do a 100% completion run this time and the game looks great at 1080p 4xSSAA with texture packs. There is not a single jaggy in sight and it runs at a locked 30fps with few drops after the shader cache builds up (the first time you start a game in Dolphin shaders need to be built - each time you start the game afterwards performance smooths out, having an SSD helps with this as well.)

I plan to build a gaming PC with an i5 CPU this year (I've decided to go PC + Wii U this gen and pick up PS4/Xbone near the end of the gen for a few peanuts), so I should be able to run it nicely. So, to play it I need an ISO of the game and a texture pack. I even read that it supports Xbox gamepads... Awesome! So I guess I know which version to play  Thanks so much!!

Yeah if you install homebrew onto your Wii you can rip an ISO off discs of games you've bought, or you can just play the disc inside your PC's disc drive (wouldn't recommend, slower load times than off the HDD/SSD.)
I'd recommend an i5 4690k.

At its base clock (with turbo-boost to 3.9 Ghz, since you only need two cores) it should run the game at full-speed. But if you find that there are some drops it is overclockable (and it's very easy to overclock to something like 4.5 Ghz.) It is by far the best processor for Dolphin because of its high instructions per cycle and also its high clock-rates. Dolphin currently only uses three cores at most (two for game, one dedicated to sound) so you won't find any benefits from an i7.
This also happens to be an excellent processor for PC gaming too.
