Introducing NINJHAX - A Nintendo 3DS Homebrew Exploit!

[Oxybelis]

PSX can be a thing, probably won't run really heavy games, but even a RaspPi can run PSX well.

RaspPi is more powerful than 3DS :/

Proof it.

 

[Zaweet]

Is the game being exploited a very popular game or something more obscure?

 

[the_randomizer]

Proof it.

In the GPU it is, but doesn't emulation rely more on CPU? ARM11's are better than the Wii's CPU, and Wii handled PSX.
I'm pretty sure 3DS can handle it.

Pi uses ARM11 too, but at 700Mhz. Regarding the Wii, it did handle PSX, but very poorly.

Well, what is the clock speed of the new 3DS?
Maybe the normal 3DS can't, but the New could do it.

Same clock speed, but 4 cores. That beats the PI.

As far as I know, the N3DS has the same clock speed, but the CPU is 4x instead of 2x like the 3DS. This is just off the 3DBrew page so I don't know how accurate it is, but the clock speed they give for the 3DS seems a bit low.

Looked up some footage, and it seems to be very playable.

Good luck playing Final Fantasy VII through IX on full speed on the Wii. More MHz != more speed.

There are many incompatible games, and some of the games are too slow, so it depends on which game you're playing. MGS works surprisingly well though.

4 cores for emulation is near useless.

 

[the_randomizer]

4 cores for emulation is near useless.

More cores won't mean a damn thing if the clock speed is weak, such is the case with the New 3DS.

 

[DutchyDutch]

More MHz != more speed.

Yeaaa.. that isn't true.

 

[the_randomizer]

Yeaaa.. that isn't true.

No I'm not wrong. You must be joking

More MHz doesn't mean a process is going to run emulators faster. Do your research, please. Thank you

I meant that that beats the PI in actual power, not emulation

 

[Edgarska]

Yeaaa.. that isn't true.

More clock speed only matters if you're talking about the exact same processor. If they're different in any way then clock speed is only a good ballpark estimation of its power.

That's what I'm saying dude. I thought you meant that more MHZ always = more speed. D: didn't see the ! before the =
I know of the mhz myth.

/\ look above

Fyi, the RasPi uses a ARMv6 http://www.raspberrypi.org/help/faqs/#softwareLanguages
