So you're saying me to buy a 3ds for playing Pokemon.I have some money shortage.So I will try to make some money for it but as a kid I can't get 15000rs for a game.anyway anyone found the solution of my problems. Please help me ASAP.
More like 10000rs according to google for the 2DS.. Also your monetary issues are not our problem - it's yours. Get a job / ask your parents. We are not obligated to write an emulator for you.
- Honestly, I'm furious about people like you.
Pokemon will still be around in a couple of years when the 2DS / 3DS are cheaper and it will still be the same game.
Either it will be supported on Citra then or you can get the real hardware.
For now your only option is to buy a 2DS and get on with your life - or simply don't play it for now.
Entertainment is expensive and emulators are not supposed (or able) to change that.
The greater goal (for me) is preservation of the digital culture and documenting how the hardware works.
In a couple of years (say.. 50?) the hardware will start failing and you won't be able to play Pokemen X, Y etc. - or any other 3DS game for that matter.
- And that's when it's Citras time to shine.
I'd bet a ton of people playing NES / SNES games on emulators have never seen the hardware in person.
It's becoming more and more obscure as consoles are thrown away, ripped apart etc.
And yet you know games like Super Mario in their original release form.
- We need that for consoles like the 3DS, consoles which make up a big deal of our pastime, which will be forgotten otherwise.
You do realize that Citra developer spend
hundreds of hours on Citra? The minimum wage for me would be around 10 Euro when getting a job at the Uni which is 745rs. If you multiply that by the numbers of hours I work on Citra per week I could easily have afforded a 2DS if I worked a different job instead.
And it's not only me, there is a number of developers.
The cost of Citra is probably in the millions.
If you want to use Citra now, then learn how to contribute and work on it, however, don't be surprised if it would have been way easier / cheaper to just buy a 2DS.
You (and other people asking for Pokemon and having expectations) are just being a freeloader and it's pissing me off.
It's pissing me off to a point where I do not have interest in contributing anymore until the 2DS / 3DS is less popular.
To add to that, you are most likely not legally allowed to use Citra unless you own a 2DS / 3DS anyway because we still depend on data from the bios / rom.
If you are going to break the law for personal gain you might as well just walk into a store and steal a 2DS.
(There are ways around it and it's allowed in some countries, but just food for thought; it will probably change in a couple of years when Citra is more mature)
