Nope. At most you're gonna get a decent SNES emulator, given the architecture. The PSP would do LEAGUES better, because of how its architecture is.


Yet, N64 emulation the PSP is still slow as molasses, Mario 64 barely runs at all.


Clock speed isn‘t everything. However ,the higher clock speed,the better emulation

New 3DS clock speed is still 266 MHz or so, not enough for N64 emulation really.

Naw mang. Which emulator are you talking about? Version .00000000000001 of StrmnNrmn's Daedalus? Or the most recent, up-to-date one? THAT ONE runs incredibly well. OoT is full speed, and pretty much 100% playable. IS 100% playable. As is Super Smash Bros, Mario Kart 64, and Mario 64.

Even PSP is not nessesary now.
PSP can be perfectly emulated with PPSSPP on android or ios.
With 4 times resolution of the original PSP games

    companies use them for three years or so
    before they are dumped on the market

    nah you can find lots of working ones if you look carefully
