Homebrew Is there a SEGA saturn emulator for the 3DS?

[MiguelinCrafter]

If there is then
How well does it run?

And can someone provide me with a .cia of said emulator please?

Dude no. I am going to save you a lot of time and grief, there is no Sega Saturn emulator for the 3DS.

Ok I was wrong and I will re-open your thread. Apparently there is a Sega Saturn emu for Retro Arch. The core runs like garbage but its here.

MrHuu was the member who alerted me to its existence.

Thanks @BORTZ

Sega Saturn emulation is possible on a 3ds, there's an old (1.4.0) compiled core of Yabause available. Just like mentioned, it's slow! Like 5fps slow.
Don't get your hopes up but you can get it here: http://gbatemp.net/threads/unofficial-3ds-retroarch-builds.462252/#Yabause

Other than that, no. No Sega Saturn emulation available on the 3ds.

well..... i learned something today.

I believe the saturn had like 9-11 processors, so it's incredibly difficult to program software that can perform the duties of all of them.

I heard that it's dynarec for Yabause needs changes for New3DS.

Okay, some time later, how does this go? Any news? I´m also interested on playing such games.

PC is the only way to go for emulating Sega Saturn games.

Darn!!! Thank you man.

I mean, there's a yabuse Wii build. Doesn't run too well either but it exists.

Well, about this slow emulator, does it get at least anything at all better on New 3DS? It was abandoned or does it have another revision?

 

[BORTZ]

I really wish there was a bigger community behind getting Saturn emulation running better. Even on PCs, its pretty bad.
