You should search the wikis of PCSX2 and Dolphin for information about the level of compatibility of the game in question. Or the GC version of the game could use a tech that is hard to emulate so Dolphin would run it slowly. Super Mario Galaxy on Wii ran at 60fps for comparison but apparently the Switch cant even. It's possible than Dolphin can't run well a multiplatform game that works flawless in PCSX2. Thanks to the Dolphin emulator though, this is now possible. Dolphin should work better than PCSX2, with fewer bugs (but sometimes can be slower too).īut no emulator is perfect and all has big or small issues with some games. Dolphin is a GameCube / Wii emulator, allowing you to play games for these two platforms on. Dolphin, despite being an extremely active project, hasn't had a stable release since. PCSX2 has stayed behind, too focus in hacks. Compare pcsx2 vs dolphin and see what are their differences. A four year gap may make it sound like PCSX2 hasn't been in active development, but that's not the case. After years of hard work Dolphin has became one of the most accurate emulators. In addition to that, the chosen emulator can improve or make worse the experience. I remember the Wii port of Bully (launched first in PS2) has framerate problems (even the xbox 360 version suffers it!). The Ryzen 5 also has simultaneous multithreading while the Ryzen 3 does not. A game ported badly to a more powerful console may have worse graphics and another problems. 1 TFLOPs of GPU performance, which is as low as you should go for PS2 emulation. However, the quality of the port is very important.

Gamecube is a little stronger than PS2, so multiplatform games like Resident Evil 4 usually looks better in GC than PS2.
