PMBR, do you guys plan on ever releasing a dolphin build of PM?

A build with static backgrounds on all stages would go a long way in opening up the dolphin side of spectrum for a lot of people.

I've been playing PM on dolphin for a while now and crazy backgrounds (think lylat) seems to be the only thing that causes me to dip below 60FPS.

I assume you haven't endorsed an official dolphin build because:

1. The board and help thread would be flooded by 1000s of people with different PC/MAC configurations having difficulties getting it to run.

2. Dolphin 3.5 had major freezing issues with snake, olimar, and pokemon. Someone on reddit told me this has been fixed in 4.0, but I have yet to verify.

The major reasons we don't are:
1. More development time.
2. Dolphin emulation is a legal grey area, a place we tend to avoid. Note how we don't have guides or downloads available for people who USB Load. This isn't because we're abandoning them, rather it's much safer for us to not help.

I figured it was something like that, thanks for the response.
