If you have a PC, they run very well in an emulator. Dolphin even runs on Android, though I've never tried it so I can't judge its performance.
I would prefer to just wait for the official release 😀
Thanks for the suggestion though!
Dolphin runs pretty badly on low-end hardware in general. That being anything worse than mid-grade desktop hardware.
Depending on the specific game, it may be playable, but I wouldn't bet on it.
As a specific example, I have a laptop with an i5-1335u, and it can't run Twilight Princess playably at all, and Metroid Prime 2 doesn't work great either.
But my previous 10600k desktop had no issues.
And as a general rule, phones are less powerful than even low-end desktop hardware.
