No there wouldn't. :P I highly doubt the 3ds (new or old) has enough power to run n64 or ps1 games slowly if at all.

It might.

- 128 MB RAM O3DS / 256 MB RAM N3DS (the PSP Phat had 32 MB, Slim had 64 MB)
- 6 MB GPU O3DS / 10 MB GPU N3DS (the PSP had 2 MB)
- 268MHz dual core CPU O3DS / 268MHz quad core CPU O3DS N3DS (the PSP had a dual core CPU running up to 333 MHz, but most games ran at 222 Mhz)

...and N64 games run good enough with Daedalus on PSP. Of course, PS1 games run flawlessly, but that was because it was Sony's console, designed specifically with that in mind.

Yeah but this isn't the psp scene (and probably never will be), but yeah i totally forgot about all the emulators on psp, ps1 excluding cause it can y'know run them natively without a homebrew emulator.

When it comes to emulation, the CPU is the most important part. The PSP's CPU ran up to 333 MHz, but it was a different architecture from the 3DS's (MIPS vs ARM11). The 3DS would probably emulate it better, considering it's running on a newer CPU (albeit with a less frequency), but that's entirely up to how the emulator would be coded and optimized.

...but this is not a 3DS vs PSP thread. We should probably get back to KARL3DS.

I just hope they document all their findings if they don't release their exclusive features. Maybe a select few will get the developer version while everyone else gets the End user version. :P Still getting excited about this every teaser though! Hopefully there's some way to retain the use of DS games (Though I never use them, it'd be awesome to have since the rop is not in TWL anymore as what Daz said. :D)

The psp was designed to run ps1. It had the hardware to do so. Like 3ds with ds, or ds with gba, wii and gc, etc. And as I recall the n64 emulator had a low frame rate and graphical issues.

If a dingoo a320 can manage PS1 emulation to some degree, the 3DS should have no problems doing it, I see way too much people under estimating the 3DS & n3DS horsepower...

Anyway I don't really care about these fancy 3D games, what I want for the 3DS in term of emulation is Neo Geo & GBA :D

Me neither :) Emulation up to NeoGeo is perfectly fine for me! Don't care that much about the PS1s game library. It hasn't aged nearly as well as most of Nintendos game libraries.

Game on! :)

Maybe because Gateway has a business that needs frequent updates whilst this is a small team of real people with lives that do this in their spare time with no promised release. Watch what you say because they won't want to release to a bunch of greedy little 20 Year Olds on an Internet forum. All of your egos are so high, you think you have a say in what they should or should not do with this.
 
Most of us already have a Gateway so they can hold their release until the year 2050 for all I care...

It's just their current behavior is teasing us indefinitely and for that they get no respect from me. They should just move to a private little forum where they can do all the circlejerking they want.

All their current knowledge is built from 3dbrew and 3dsdev people, and they are just here to boast their unjustified inflated ego
 
I personally don't care if KARL is released or not. I just like to see updates on their progress as I have an interest in this sort of stuff, so video evidence is more than enough for me. Besides, there's not much more that I could possibly want - I have rxTools for the "fun-stuff" and Cubic Ninja, for homebrew. Since eshop spoofing is a thing now, I've even began less (if not at all) reliant on emuNAND aswell.

Heck, I keep nagging Wulfy because I'm so interested in what these people do :P Aaww >_< I'm such a child....

Govanify hasn't leaked a CFW since ages ago. Though he has more (maybe? prob stole another cfw) he won't leak it as said on his twitter.

It's pretty much the opposite at this point, actually. While the information from yellows8 and other 3dbrew contributors has helped us out massively to get to this point (and we have an incredible amount of respect for them!), we're actually mostly doing original research and giving back at this point. The greatest long-term impact of this project will likely be the trail of documentation we're leaving behind for others to read and further their own understanding of the platform.

Im only writting this because there was more than one instance where the KARL team spat on GWs "sloppy" work when in reality they havent contributed one single thing to the community where others have already built much better CFWs (NTR) than they could ever do. Theres a lot of bark but no bite here.
 
In my opinion, I guess this is just to see if those without GW can last longer than them for this. :P
