[QUOTE="CarlKenner, post: 5026449, member: 350473"] English isn't his native language, so I'm sure he meant that it [b]won't[/b] run at full speed if we ever get it running games at all. And that's probably true, but I don't really care about that myself. For me it's more about the principle that we should be able to emulate things, and less about the practicality for end users. I know other people have different priorities though, and that's OK. The 3 cores aren't really a problem, since Dolphin currently leaves many of your CPU's cores doing nothing. The sensible thing to do would be to have each core running on its own core, so it wouldn't slow anything down significantly. Twice the clock speed is still an issue, but many games might not be using 100% of the CPU anyway, since many games don't look any more demanding than Wii games. I'm hoping Wii U games don't use as much low-level code, and we won't have to emulate half the hardware if we just emulate the OS calls that the game makes. But I don't really know. It could end up being super slow or running at playable speeds. We'll just have to try and see, and hopefully let people much more capable than me have a go at coding. Anyway, it's way too early to think about running actual games... I'm taking little baby steps here. But now Dolphin knows there is such a thing as a Wii U game and can read some of its files. Later we might be able to get a hello world RPX file (like in the leaked SDK) to load and maybe even run, and output some debug prints to the Dolphin console. Exciting if you are a hacker, but not useful for anyone else. [/QUOTE]

I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.

I feel like school, back when I was actually in school, was more entertaining though, because of how much I get to interact with people, hang out with friends, and other stuff like that. All I get to talk to at work is my boring coworkers lol
