  • Steam has no competitors because nobody is competing with them, not because they are forcing nobody to compete with them.

    Steam isn’t abusing their dominant position to prevent competition. Other companies could make their own storefront and compete with steam. Nobody does in a way that’s actually comparable to steam.

    Steam has a monopoly, but it’s not because steam is actively keeping it that way.










  • Dolphin runs pretty badly on low-end hardware in general. That being anything worse than mid-grade desktop hardware.

    Depending on the specific game, it may be playable, but I wouldn’t bet on it.

    As a specific example, I have a laptop with an i5-1335u, and it can’t run Twilight Princess playably at all, and Metroid Prime 2 doesn’t work great either.

    But my previous 10600k desktop had no issues.

    And as a general rule, phones are less powerful than even low-end desktop hardware.
