The Revolution Emulator is a program that, assuming it works the same as the [[Dolphin Emulator]], allows Wii source code to run on a PC (or possibly Mac) platform; it is not technically an emulator in the sense that you cannot run compiled applications on it, but you can run applications from source code using it.

We do not actually have a copy of the emulator, but we can guess that it is likely quite similar to the [[Dolphin Emulator]], allowing us to infer the above information; we know that the emulator exists because it is mentioned in a few places in the SDK:

* OSGetConsoleType defines, listed as a GameCube debug platform

* A text file mentioning versions of the various components of the emulator, including [[Starlet]] emulation

* Mentions of it as a platform in makefiles

We have very limited information on this emulator, as it can be presumed to be from the era before [[Revolution SDK]] 1.0, most likely being used in 2004/5. See [[Full Wii History]].

It is one of the [[Holy Grails]].
