Red Dragon 3DS, Nintendo Virtual Boy Emulator Port

[Belmondo]

Jack Brothers in 3D I patiently await the day!

This is awesome! I have always wanted to play jack brothers in 3D!

Been waiting a long time.
Sad Nintendo failed to do this first as they would have made some money easily.

Hoping we'll see a way to add color to the game graphics now that we can play them on a true 3D screen.
I'm ready to start coloring in all the graphics in all the games in case such a feature can happen. :3

Also hope this will give the Virtual Boy homebrew scene a little boost or at least encourage Virtual Boy styled games just for the fun of it. :3

I'll do it! xD

With the vectors like that game has I'd imagine a simple color overlay system might work but then again that would be a rather difficult game to colorize.
Probably would need a hack to help tell the emulator where to paint over the colors but even then it would be very limited and probably not worth the effort. (easier in photoshop xD)

Still a fun one, love that game.

I'm mostly thinking of the more sprite based one like the Mario and Wario games.
Then it would just be a matter of overlaying tiles or the like.

Then again that mind numbing red color is rather nostalgic.

I just pushed a fix that doesn't give any memory errors on roms like Teleroboxer (at least on citra). I don't think this fixes the 3dsx problem but it's worth a try. There should also be a slight speed improvement.

got the Cia file for us?

Here's a 3DSX in case anyone wants to try it: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/34957059/r3Ddragon-master.3dsx

I haven't tested it myself, as I just built it moments ago.

Edit: Goes to the second frame, then boots me to the system menu with "An error has occurred, forcing the software to close. The system will now restart."

Thanks for the update! Just tried with Teleroboxer again and it was able to get in game, navigate the menus, but froze once a round started. Also a few graphical glitches with the 3D turned on.

Anyone happened to have either a icon.bin or a .smdh file that goes with this emulator for the .3dsx verson?

Although I just tried the .3dsx version, similar error to Team_Fail, it gets to Frame 1 and freezes.

I eagerly await until this is able to play well on the system; if anything, the 3DS seems a natural fit for handling VB emulation in a way nothing else could.

That link just opens up to a bunch of black question marks, letters, and symbols.

Please could you share your latest build? Cheers!

Great work daniel, keep it up!

I played Wario Land on my Wii, but I've always wanted to play it in 3D, so this is a nice thing to see. I'll finally be able to play it the way it was intended!

I can post it built with homebrew/public domain ROMs, but no commercial games.http://puu.sh/d4zzh/6f2839812e.zip Here's two copies, one with Flappy Cheep Cheep, one with Vue Snake.
