Hi there. Sorry if this is a dumb question.

Basically, I'm largely a noob when it comes to 3DS modding. I have a bunch of PS1 games, at least 20, all installed via QR from a subreddit that shares these QRs. I don't have a PC, and there's only so much you can do with FTPS, right?

Today, I downloaded Retroarch on 3DS, because I know that these PS1 games I have are forwarded, mini-Retroarch cores. So I assumed I'd be able to play these forwarded PS2 games on the actual Retroarch emulator, too. Yet, I can't seem to figure out how. Would these forwarded PS1 games not be the same as normal PS2 ISOs put into a folder somewhere?

Basically, I want to know if what I'm trying to do is even possible, since nothing has been working so far. (I know Retroarch itself works, because I used it to play Doom just now, of which I already happened to have the .wads.) Can I play these forwarded PS1 games on the dedicated Retroarch app? If so, are they in a folder somewhere, am I looking in the wrong spot? There's a folder within the Retroarch folder titled "forwarders" and it seems to have all of the games, but they can't be run.
