Homebrew Is the 3DS powerful enough to run an N64 emulator?

First read the thread.

Short answer: n64 is notoriously difficult to emulate correctly. Current n64 pc emulation still has problems.

Yeah no. If you think it's that easy then get to porting Mupen or ParaLLEl.

Honestly if it is even possible to convert the n64 to 3ds use dupermario 64 it the easiest game I think

It's not, and that's not how emulation works.

To further enflame this thread - it is not necessary to create a general purpose emulator in order to emulate a single game. This statement does not address the issue as to what is possible on a 3ds.

sorry for bumbing this topic but it really bugs me that no one uses the gpu everybody always runs crap on the cpu like retroarch.The 3ds is DEFINITLY powerful enough to run it but you guys are just gonna call me a "moron" or an "idiot" or a "noob" that just shows how childish this forum is if you guys cant even be civilized really the 3ds actually can run an n64 emulator at decent psx framerates.if a system is more powerful then the console it most likely can run it it just needs some people to USE THE GPU!!!!!

If you really think its that easy, how bout you go emulate it? we aren't your slaves.

thats called "porting a game"; making an entire emulator for one game is a bit of a waste, especially with how difficult the n64 is to emulate.

Goldeneye.

Why hasn't this ever been on any other system?!

 

[cybrian]

Goldeneye.

Why hasn't this ever been on any other system?!

It's a James Bond game, which means that the James Bond IP has to be relicensed in order for it to be rereleased.

F-Zero X!!!!!!

 

[TimX24968B]

F-Zero X!!!!!!

best f-zero game in the whole series. the original didn't have as good music, and GX had the weird story line, and not as good music as f-zero X. Did they port that to DS?

 

[elBenyo]

Banjo Kazooie and Tooie, and Conker's Bad Fur Day. Damn Microsoft for buying Rare and Nintendo for not buying them after DK3.

The original goldeneye? Nope. There is a remake though for nintendo wii, xbox 360, nintendo ds, and ps3. Always liked perfect dark more myself.

Nope. Last f zero games was on the Gba. 12 years ago.. F zero GX was released 13 years ago.

Such a shame. The f zero x would be a perfect fit for the 3ds!

I liked Perfect Dark, as well as Time Splitters too. But the N64 Goldeneye was my first entry into FPS games and it's always held a spot in my heart.

I have seriously considered purchasing a N64, controller, and only that game lol.

I know, I just haven't played it. Still like f-zero x the best.
