The Nintendo GameCube is a console that launched in 2001. It had plenty of classic games, including Mario Kart Double Dash, Tales of Symphonia, Super Mario Sunshine, Animal Crossing, Metroid Prime, and The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. Of course, most of those games aren’t available on modern consoles, so your only choice to play them today is emulation. Here are the best GameCube emulators for most platforms.
At this time, Dolphin Emulator is the overall best GameCube and Nintendo Wii emulator. It’s available for PC, Linux, macOS, iOS, and Android. OpenEmu and RetroArch also use Dolphin for their GameCube plug-ins on macOS. Thus, Dolphin is the one we recommend first. We have a guide to installing and using Dolphin Emulator if you need it.
