I don't think CATSFC will support games with extra processors that well, just saying.

Do both of those have special chips?
If so, I didn't know that.

Off topic: I think PSP is the BEST console and the cheapest for the Emulations... and also, i got PSX in my hands
I newer played this much in my life, and PORTABLE, and with good emulation!
I wonder how good emulators will 3DS hawe when hacked!

Kirby games use the SA-1 chip, Donkey Kong Country 2 is just a normal ROM, but the DS, even with the DSTWO, doesn't quite have enough power to run full speed for all Snes games.

For some things, yeah, but too bad the Snes emulator on the PSP still ain't that great.

Yeah, only snes isn't perfect, but it's pretty great! by the way, what are best PSP emulators in your opinion..i mean emulators FOR PSP?

I mainly wanted to emulate GBA on PSP.

I don't know to be honest as I don't have a PSP I use emulators on the Wii though. I wanted to get a DSTWO one of these days, I just don't have the money yet. Maybe gPSP for the PSP? I heard it's pretty good for GBA.

Try adjusting the settings like frameskip and stuff and fiddle around to see if it gets better.

Yeah I tried that but I didn't really get a good setting :/

Oh, I didn't know that, thanks! Is there an easy way to know if a certain game has a special chip?

Yep. Yoshi's Island runs at very pitiful FPS in the title story screen, the file selection screen, and in a level. On the map it can run at 30 FPS, but you're not often on the map.

Super Mario RPG runs at very pitiful FPS in some parts with lots of animation.

 

[the_randomizer]

The DS simply can't run those games.

Don't now if this is the appropriate place to post this. Realhotstuff shipped my DSTwo and wondering do they update it? I'm wondering because my 3DS is on 6.3.0-12U.

It should come with the latest firmware packed to work out the box.

My DSTWO arrived!

When copying plugins it's asking if i want to merge folders. Do I?
For _dstwoplug

 

[Aeter]

Yes you can merge them as it will just add the new files to your plugin folder.

 

[Terminator02]

Updated for firmware 1.25.

Thank you for this thread OP. Got me going and I've been having a blast.

I have one question though-- now when I boot the card, it sits there not showing any files while the save disc icon flashes. I think it's because I moved stuff around, and now the last place the card was navigated to no longer exists. If that's the case, how can I fix it? I'm not sure if I remember what my folder setup was before.
