It still seems weird to me that the 3ds can't handle emulating an almost 20 year old low poly console, not even at 30 fps... yes I know it's a different architecture and all that stuff by the way

One can not simply port a game without the source code, nor is N64 emulation a practical idea on the 3DS. Someone would have make the entire game, from scratch, to get it to work on the 3DS.
Your best bet is to emulate it on your PC or buy the game/one of it's many ports.

There's a lot of reasons for this. Partly because emulation requires a lot of power and better hardware access.
The other reason is because it's just hard to emulate the N64. Most N64 games still run with tons of bugs on the PC, putting them on a handheld would be worse.
