I like playing games on their original platform (which is why I went through the trouble of buying an EZ Flash IV), and I think Xenoblade looks fine on the Wii, though I have to admit I hated it when I got extreme frame dips when 5-8 enemies showed up on the screen :/
I'd play it on dolphin, but for some reason it's really laggy. I'm not sure if it's because I didn't set my settings right or whatever.

It takes alot of CPU  power to emulate the cpu inside a wii, on x86.

Dolphin basically only makes use of 2 cores, so the faster those 2 cores are the better.

Intel is much better than amd for dolphin, and esp if you can overclock.

You basically want a Haswell or newer architecture.

Something like a G3258 (pentium haswell (dual core)) for 60$ can overclock to 4.2-4.6 ghz (luck of the draw with silicon).

Its the budget way to deal with dolphin.

 

If you cant do that, the next best thing is playing it on a Wii.
