Hello I have an Old 3DS XL running Luma3DS with emuNAND firmware 11.0.

Can I play NDS + GBA games on my 3DS?

If yes, which flashcart I need to play?

Thanks!

I search on Google how to play NDS and GBA on 3DS.
One website advised to use R4 SDHC 3DS RTS to play both of them.

Its probably on /r/3DS right?

Yeah thats a good DS flashcard but it will play GBA games like 5-15 fps with crackling sound.

tl;dr It can run DS games but it run GBA games bad. Like really bad

Well I have a got a Dstwo for free and for some reason it doesnt play every Nds game good and I would prefer CFW over dstwo for the GBA games not all games run on 60fps on the dstwo -_-

The TempGBA emulator can run almost all games in 60 FPS. Make sure you don't use the default GBA emu. What kind of problems are you experiencing while running DS games?

i'm using the tempgba and fire emblem is running with some lag

as for nds games Pokemon black 2 freezes at the tournament where u battle the old gym leaders and elite four masters
plus with some of the other games the top of the bottom screen glitches ( it glitches some black bars lol )

can it be because I run the FlashCard from reinand CFW ????

i heard about that problem before, i think it's a known problem. are you using a fixed rom?
thoose games got strong AP, i don't remember if you had to play either a clean rom or patch it, or it was a problem with the DSI extra data removed from most roms...

I meant for the DS game. DS games have trouble running in the 3DS full res when running from a cart
the only problem that i know is the touch part of the touchscreen...
because it is bigger and different resolution some card menus and games are less sensitive and some cases can't detect the touch....
