LCD-Game-Emulator for 3DS?

Lion_252 · Jun 8, 2024

Hi,
I just discovered this Game & Watch emulator: https://github.com/bzhxx/LCD-Game-Emulator
It is used for both the recent Nintendo Game & Watch: https://github.com/kbeckmann/game-and-watch-retro-go and for the Odroid-Go https://github.com/ducalex/retro-go
I wondered if it has been adapted to the 2DS or 3DS to emulate the old Game & Watch games.
Regards,
Lionel

Edit in 2026: yes, someone did it https://github.com/RetroValou/Yokoi_Game_-_Watch_emulator_3ds

i don't think so, afaik.
If your console is new, you can use retroarch to emulate g&w.
Anyway, or if your console is o3ds, many g&w games were officially re-released for nds and dsiware.

Thank you! I have already bought the Game & Watch Gallery (for the Gameboy and Gameboy Advance), but I have never found the cartridges for the NDS.

They were referring to some DsiWare port of those, for the Nintendo DSi (and subsequently 3DS). Those were sold separately and not onto physical form.
As the eshop was shutdown, you can't get it in an "ideal, convenient and legal way according to Nintendo" even if those are to be considered abandonware. We can't inform you on were to get it here, so it's onto you to find those for your 3DS if you want it.
