Dolphin was first released in September 2003 by programmers Henrik RydgÃ¥rd (ector) and F|RES as an experimental Nintendo GameCube emulator that could boot up and run commercial games. Audio was not yet emulated, and there were performance issues.
Pilot Luis Morales III and all eight passengers, including Aaliyah, were killed in the aviation incident. According to findings from an inquest conducted by the coroner's office in the Bahamas, Aaliyah suffered from severe burns and a blow to the head, in addition to severe shock.
Aaliyah was killed in a plane crash Saturday in the Bahamas. The 22-year-old singer and actress, born Aaliyah Haughton, was one of nine people aboard a twin-engine plane that crashed seconds after taking off from the Bahamas, according to Grand Bahama police superintendent Basil Rahming. All nine died.
