Play Super Mario Galaxy on PC - is that possible?

• So far, Super Mario Galaxy has only been released exclusively for the Nintendo consoles. As with other Nintendo games, a PC spin-off is unlikely.
• Unfortunately, there are no comparable alternatives yet. The games in the Rayman series come close to the Mario games, but are kept in a 2D look.

Emulator: Play Super Mario Galaxy on PC - is that possible?

If you own the game and the console, you can theoretically play Super Mario Galaxy legally on the PC.

• You can emulate a copy of your game on PC using the Dolphin emulator and homebrew channel on the Wii.
• Note: Setting up the Homebrew Channel can void your console's warranty. In addition, the game may not be fully playable.
• Conclusion: The emulator can cause gaming problems and is not a replacement for your console. Since you must own the game and console anyway, it is advisable to play the game there as well.
