How would one put nds ROMs on luma3ds?
Install TWiLight Menu++.
  • Most DS games already work.
  • Newer ROMs have to be patched because of anti-piracy "features".
  • Contains some emulators for older consoles (but emulators running in 3DS mode are better*)
  • Can launch GBA games with GBARunner2 (although Virtual Console injections are currently the best option on the 3DS; take notice of the 300 title limit of the 3DS Home Menu)
DSiWare .nds files cannot be run on a 2/3DS at the moment via TWiLight Menu++ → install them as CIAs (downside: TWLN is a small partition; can't install many titles at once)

Where would one find CIA files for ds games and can I convert nds files to CIA files somehow.
