Homebrew Emulators you use

[DrewyPoo]

I used retroarch’s gpsp for a while.

 

[AdamFX990]

most of them do

I've had some success emulating games if sound is disabled. Oddword: Abe's Odysee is pretty playable.

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but, if you're using Picodrive, you can play Sega CD games using that. Just download the BIOS file for the region you want (I can't link it here for obvious reasons), and extract to /retroarch/cores/system on your SD Card. Them put any Sega CD game onto your SD Card, and load it the same way you would load a normal Genesis game.

Hey, so in another thread I saw someone said they have game gear, and Sega CD games on their 3ds, lol how

I have only the emulators that came with the starter pack plus a couple I added in. Systems I got are nes,snes, Atari lynx (system sucked will probly delete that one), GBA, GBC, and Genesis. I don't have retro arch yet, my phone died and am saving for a new one so I can put stuff on my system yet and wanna get a bigger SD card anyways

Mini VMac for 3ds and that's all I can think of right now.

i did end up installing retroarch and a few cores with fbi,, but what is mini vmac?? I think I saw it on there,, I cannot put the sega cd bios or anything on my 3ds yet, I have hardly any memory on my sd card left,, (32 gb,, yes I know lmfao), and my phone took a crap and I have to get a new one,, so I cannot put files on my 3ds w/out a qr code or fbi, but in time I will

Mini Vmac is an old Mac OS 7 or 8 emulator, i've used it on the PC and its actually kind of fun, not so much "practical" as say an SNES emulator, but still fun

 

[mike a]

but what do you do with it lol you can only play Oregon trail so many times

 

[SaberLilly]

well like i said, the "practicality" of it is limited, its more of a nostalgia thing i suppose, like running windows 95 on the 3DS

Is there any emulator you can use for gaming online with friends?

 

[Hoellu]

The emulators I like are cemu and retroarch.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

The con of retroarch is that you have to wait 3 hours for its installation.

Obviously, CEMU isn't on the 3DS, but Retroarch is. You can either download Retroarch standalone or download each of the individual cores separately as a title. See here: https://buildbot.libretro.com/stable/1.6.7/nintendo/3ds/RetroArch_cia.7z

There's also a series of VC Forwarders that utilize a modified version of Retroarch. I recommend using these, mainly due to ease of use and for the fact that putting the system in sleep mode won't screw up the sound, which is an issue in the normal Retroarch builds.

Yeah sorry, I was talking generally ^o^" And thanks! ^^

 

[mike a]

are there any Atari 2600 emulators that work??

 

[sniper_x002]

I use Retroarch for pretty much all my emulation needs. I don't use GBA with retroarch though, I use GBA injection for that.

Does anyone know of any sort of emulator for the 3DS which allows for local multiplayer? I think I can remember hearing about one awhile ago but I don't know if my brain is playing tricks on me or did such a thing really exist..?

There was a fork of VirtuaNES that enabled local multiplayer.

Here's the link to the thread: https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-virtuanes-2p-mod-play-nes-2-player-on-your-3ds.466546/

I think that's what I remember seeing. I was hoping it would allow gameplay between more than one 3DS, but I guess not. Thanks for the link though.
