ok but what if it was possible to have Dolphin use fast swiping on a touchscreen for Wii Remote shake and dragging around it to move the pointer

Super Mario Galaxy DS could become real on dual-screen emulation handhelds

Tried to make a version of #DolphinEmulator's icon, in the style of the Wiimote A button.

Forgot to post earlier:

Apparently there's this thing called #RetroAchievements, which adds achievements to emulated games.

You know what, having achievements will probably make the process of re-tackling my #Nintendo #GameCube / #Wii collection even more fun, and of course #DolphinEmulator has built-in support for RetroAchievements.

On sadder news, I tried to start replaying GameCube version of Metroid Prime, and yikes, while some of it still lurks in the reflexes, guess my brain is fully adapted to Halo controls over the past decade and half. How the heck did I complete MP1&2 with this funky control scheme?

(On *distantly related* news, I've not bothered to find out yet how much monneyyy Nintendo wants for Metroid Prime 4 for Switch 1. ...Arm and leg, probably.)
