While it sucks that Dolphin had to be sacrificed for the moment, am I to understand that it could come back in a later update, or is the 32-bit/64-bit distinction going to be the final nail in the coffin for GC emulation?
Also, and this is just my opinion, but I'd rather have working N64, PS1, and hopefully Dreamcast emulation out of the Switch than to have those three systems sacrificed to Gamecube emulation. I remember hearing that the Dolphin team or someone was doing something with Dolphin on the Switch, and we may have to do something that won't depend on RetroArch for it to run. Not to mention, a lot of the games for the Gamecube, like Smash Bros., Mario Kart, Mario Tennis, the various Pokemon games, etc. all have their own versions on the Switch. Yeah, we may not be able to play Soul Calibur II on the go, but Soul Calibur I will do just fine for me personally.
Dreamcast, on the other hand, has games that are much harder to come by nowadays, and that won't see a permanent re-release ever again that people will always be able to put into the cartridge slot and not worry about expiring licenses like with Marvel Vs. Capcom or Capcom Vs. SNK. Not to mention some other good games from Sega and SNK, especially when NAOMI and Atomiswave are brought into the equation. (if reicast supports those two systems, anyways)
That being said, I still await sound that I don't have to buy a bluetooth speaker for (are they even comparable to soundbars these days?), natinusula-chan!
