Apple now allows retro game emulators on its App Store
Dolphin ships with a bunch of keys in the source code[0]. So do almost every other emulators for any console from 6/7th gen consoles (ps3, xbox360, gamecube), see delroth's post on the matter here[1]. It's really not that simple - jurisdiction matters a lot, and also Nintendo's own priorities.

Rokid Max Review and Many Tips
Though these consoles did not support stereoscopy originally, the Dolphin emulator can add it and output SBS. My experience was a bit mixed. Your mileage may vary.

Am I the only one tired of the remakes?
You install Dolphin emulator, go into settings and make a folder for your games where it says "directory", and then you just stick your game in the folder. That's pretty much all there is to it, that's why I think Dolphin is the best emulator.

Local Co-op Action RPGs on PC
Platform: Gamecube. The remaster scrapped the local co-op entirely (booo). This one is a bit tricky but works perfectly once setup properly in Dolphin.

RDR Re-Master coming for PC?
I wish they could be fixed but they can't. You're thinking of the audio latency problem that Canary can fix with a config edit. There is no cure for these issues: https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/issues/1515

Can someone assist me with this error.
The only further advice I can give is directly from the xenia git which says to read the following page. https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/wiki/Quickstart and make sure meet everything here, and do whatever they suggest.
