Overview

An MCP server that interfaces with a Python-scriptable fork of the Dolphin emulator, enabling read/write access to GameCube and Wii memory, controller input, savestate management, and frame advance. It uses TypeScript to expose these emulator capabilities as tools for AI agents.

Developers building AI-assisted tooling for emulator-based game testing, TAS creation, or memory analysis on GameCube/Wii

Use cases

• Automate memory editing and savestate loading for speedrun testing
• Script controller inputs and frame-advance for TAS (tool-assisted speedrun) creation
• Build AI agents that interact with emulated GameCube/Wii games in real time

Use cases

• Automate memory editing and savestate loading for speedrun testing
• Script controller inputs and frame-advance for TAS (tool-assisted speedrun) creation
• Build AI agents that interact with emulated GameCube/Wii games in real time

Pros

• Direct low-level access to emulator internals (memory, savestates, frame advance)
• Leverages Felk’s well-maintained Python-scripting Dolphin fork for reliability
• TypeScript MCP server integrates easily with existing MCP-compatible AI toolchains

Cons

• Requires a specific Dolphin fork (Felk’s Python-scripting version), not stock Dolphin
• Zero stars and no community adoption yet, so support and stability are unproven
• Limited to GameCube and Wii titles only, no other platforms
