I'm wondering if there's more information available about this emulator. This video is the only thing I can find about it.

Youtube ID: q0WFB-PpdJ4&ab

It mentions during boot that it's a private alpha release, so it's safe to assume this isn't publicly available for download. It's interesting though since, compared to the other Game & Watch emulator that's floating around, this one appears to support dual screen.

Looks like the same person has a 3DS port of HatariST (Atari ST emulator) that I can't find any additional information on as well.

They have it listed so it can't be embedded on other sites.
YouTube video ID is VcoKrh5fvLw

Hi, I'm a newcomer.
I have to receive next week a 3DS to use it with G&W and Zx Spectrum emulators.
Like you, I saw the video of that user on Youtube and searched for information on baidu.

If you find in BAIDU (chinese search engine) for "game watch 3ds squall", first result is the thread of the creator of this emulator.

In these thread you have the download url of the emulator (called 3DSGW.rar)

To download from Baidu you have to be registered, but there is a page called "BaiduDownloader dot com" where you get the link to your email (use a temporary one for example).

This page is paid, but with the coupon "FREEDOWNLOAD1GB" it is free.

I hope it helps someone. Greetings!

Can you reupload this archive somewhere else?

This emulator is not called 'gunpei'. It's RetroArch emulator with a single core preinstalled that runs GW games. But it does work as it supposed to.
I also thought the same (it's the name that appears in the video).
Could it be a different version (the video is from 2022 and the link I posted is from 2018)?

I will try to search Baidu for more posts from this user, because he might have a newer version.

Could you please let us know when will you release the gunpei emulator?

Considering they never mention once that they have or have access to that, simply mentioned the emulator. Plus last post or activity was July 9th 2022, I dont believe you are going to be seeing anything from them at all.

And I was never heard from again.

But yeah, I'm neither the creator nor a contributor of this project. I'm just waiting for more information like everyone else.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
