I would put a cynical retort, but I will just sasy that no GCN emus can run such games at a reasonable rate. So just buy both game and console.

There is currently no GCN emulator that can emulate games on a decent stable level. I think Puzzle Bobble is the only game that runs OK at this point and is somewhat playbable. Your only option to play Paper Mario - The Thousand Year Door is to play it on an actual GameCube.

And also...my understanding of how GCN disc dumping works (although I could be wrong) is that it's not dumped in one big ISO...rahter the files themselves are dumped...that's why you could feasibly play a game you dumped via the broadband adapter if you didn't want to scratch your disc.

I got a GC for free after some trade-ins and then I bough a BBA for $40 and PSO for $30 and now I can stream whatever games I want from my computer to my GC to play.

The thing I don't really understand is why do some emulators only play 1 or 2 games? Once you have the BIOS ripped shouldn't every game be supported for that console? (eg. GCN, PS2, XBOX)

No.
What needs to be understood and emulated is the functioning of all the hardware. And it'll still be slow for these new systems.
