Dolphin can be installed on different systems, a list for this can be found on
the [Dolphin website](https://dolphin-emu.org/download/).
Additionally it can be installed using [Flatpak](../linux/flatpak.md) where the
package is called `org.DolphinEmu.dolphin-emu`.

[Steam Deck](./steam.md#steam-deck) as pointed out by
[nchristopher](https://github.com/nchristopher/steamdeck-emulation/blob/main/emulators/dolphin.md).

game.

upscale the image to 1080p.
In the main tab check the `Render to Main Window` box.
Close the graphics menu and open the controllers menu.
For the first GameCube controller open the configuration, select
`SDL/0/Microsoft X-Box 360 Pad 0` as type and change the buttons to your
preference.
