To use Dolphin, you must acquire the Wii version of Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 (often abbreviated as BO2 Wii ).

Note: Dolphin emulates Wii and GameCube games. Call of Duty: Black Ops II was released for Xbox 360 and PS3, and an enhanced version for Wii U; there is no official Wii or GameCube release. This guide focuses on the legal, technical, and practical realities of playing Black Ops II on platforms supported by Dolphin (primarily the Wii U version via emulation where applicable), and recommends legal alternatives.

You need a Wii console and a compatible DVD drive on your PC (rare) or a homebrewed Wii.
