System Requirements:
* OS: Microsoft Windows (XP/Vista or higher) or Linux or Apple Mac OS X (10.6 or higher).
  Windows XP x64 is NOT supported.
* Processor: Fast CPU with SSE2 supported (recommended at least 2Ghz).
  Dual Core for speed boost.
* Graphics: Any reasonably modern graphics card (Direct3D9/OpenGL 2.1, shader model 3.0).

[Command line usage]
Usage: Dolphin [-h] [-d] [-l] [-e <str>] [-b] [-V <str>] [-A <str>]
  -h, --help                	Show this help message
  -d, --debugger            	Opens the debugger
  -l, --logger              	Opens the logger
  -e, --exec=<str>          	Loads the specified file (DOL,ELF,WAD,GCM,ISO)
  -b, --batch             	Exit Dolphin with emulator
  -V, --video_backend=<str>  	Specify a video plugin
  -A, --audio_emulation=<str>	Low level (LLE) or high level (HLE) audio
