Homebrew [3DS] mGBA Alpha 1v Released

[Kikirini]

This is nice so far! Buggy, yeah, but it otherwise seems to run full speed on my N3DS. Can't wait for the next update.

 

[DaBraBoy]

ok i want to play mario kart super circuit but on an old 3ds 9.9.0-26E it is very slow until it crashes
What is this for emulator?

 

[Greymane]

This emulator runs games quit slowly on the o3ds, but with normal speed on the n3ds.

What is this for emulator?

the kind that is still in alpha1, in short let there be bugs.

ok excuse me the only thing i want was fast roms for gba

 

[Greymane]

if you are on 9.9 system frimware, it will take some time before emulation of gba is smoothed out. Also it doesnt realy help that there is limited access to the console above 9.2. So have patience and with time it will come our way.

 

[DaBraBoy]

ok i have my test results:
mario kart super circuit: runs very slow and freezes
the legend of zelda - a link to past and four swords couple: runs very slow but doesn't freeze
pokemon sapphire: runs very slow but doesn't freeze
mario and luigi superstar saga: runs very slow but doesn't freeze
metroid zero mission: runs very short and slow and freezes
pokemon fire red: runs very VERY slow but doesn't freeze
the legend of zelda - the minish cap: runs very slow but doesn't freeze

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

our .

do you have also 9.9 old 3ds

 

[Neru]

This have save states!

 

[link6155]

Runs Kirby Super Star Ultra at a playable speed on my N3DS XL. There are times when it slows down slightly and the music crackles, but otherwise I can actually play the game! The emulator crashes randomly, but at least there is a savestate function (this is a must have for all emulators).

Are you using a New 3DS or an old 3DS? Because I can run Pokemon Sapphire and Ruby just fine here on my New 3DS.


This is pretty promising stuff, good to see GBA emulation actually running at a decent framerate. Can't wait to see where this goes.

 

[pdapanda]

My test result, pokemon leafgreen, firered works at nearly fullspeed

9.9 ninjhax2.1

 

[Greymane]

do you have also 9.9 old 3ds

yea might have worded that a bit different, i do have one but i also have a n3ds. The mgba emu crashes on all 3ds systems O and N, it can crash in either 10 seconds or 10 minutes. the difference between the systems is the speed only.

an old one

 

[Wizardkoer]

How do the zeldas run?

 

[DaBraBoy]

why is gba emulation so hard? there are three gba emulators and none of them runs like gameyob or something (i mean that speed)

How do the zeldas run?

bad slow on on 3ds and i dont know on the new one

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

are there test results from anywone?

 

[Greymane]

Difference in architecture, the way the games run and are programmed/executed and uses arm9 while at the moment we only have access to arm11 (on higher then 9.2) I have tested some games they are in the pastebin link in my signature both for citragb and mgba but i test on n3ds-9.9.0.26/ironhax

 

[xXDungeon_CrawlerXx]

would test it if there's a cia version of it.

 

[DaBraBoy]

downgrading from 9.9 isn't possible so yeah

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

would test it if there's a cia version of it.

if you have 9.9 you cant install cia's

As DaBraBoy said => Metroid Zero Mission: runs slowly

Also:
Metroid Fusion: runs slowly and freeze.

I'm using O3DS 9.9.0-26E ironhax ( In gateway mode)

i dont us the gateway mode and metroid zero mission crashes and metroid fusion not and i have also old 3ds 9.9.026E but i use tubehax

 

[Greymane]

The emulator runs slowly on o3ds no matter what you do, and the crashes are random(both o/n3ds) like me popping up in a conversation (feel like i am a broken record here)

 

[Psi-hate]

Well, it seems that most games run 1/5th speed on O3DS, but the Kirby games run 4/5 speed on menus and 3/5 in gameplay!
