Hello :)

The 3D on the 3DS is something I really like about the handheld.
I wish I had a 3D TV and other consoles would support it.
But then I thought, I already have a 3D screen, the 3DS itself.
Why am I not playing some 3D PC games on that??
Dolphin supports 3D and would be a nice fit for this kind of use.

There are a handful of ways to stream content from PC to 3DS or vice versa.
However I haven't seen any of those solutions actual stream 3D content.

Would you like to play Mario Kart Wii for example in 3D on 3DS through streaming?
I for sure know some games I desperately would like to play on my 3DS XL!
What streaming application on the 3DS would work best for this you think? Or is there maybe already a way to do this?

I know that it's a bit offtopic but if you want to play games on a 3d screen, the better you can do nowadays is using a vr headset. You can even play 3ds games on high resolution and 3d in a cinema screen, same with dolphin games.

Get a VR headset.

Alright alright xd
I thought it would be a nice thing to have.
Glasses free 3D Gamecube games :D

Though now I'm looking into creating my own 3D display and doing it that way :)
It was fun to read your responses and basically agreeing that I should just use VR haha

I like the idea of streaming from PC to 3DS, and utilising the 3D screen for 3D streaming seems smart.

A comment elsewhere says that the limitation is the N3DS Wi-Fi maxes out at 2.1MBps, and o3DS at 0.6MBps.

The 3DS does have a faster accessory port though - the cartridge slot. Maybe one day someone will design a fast Wi-Fi card that works with custom firmware to allow streaming apps to work well.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
  • I @ I-need-help-with-wup-wiiu:
    i need help with nusspli failed downloads, can someone respond to my thread? pretty please:wub:
