Homebrew which emulators can play .zip games?

[mike a]

i have an r4isdhc 2016 gold pro rts, and so far I have nes.ds on it, and gameyob

both work fine, but I was wondering what emulators can play zipped games?? I just unzipped all the games to make sure it works,, hell I am also wondering if it can play nds zipped games also

Why would you need to play a zipped game? Cant you just unzip it?
And most carts work with .zip files, try selecting it.

Yes I can unzip it lol I stated that zipped games are a lot smaller

For games as small as NES/GBC it shouldn't matter.

Well what about the nds games? I am curious and btw one thing I can't figure out off topic is.. When I am in either nes.ds or gameyob I can't figure out how to exit the emulator and get back to the main flashcart

Use NDSTokyoTrim instead.

Most emulators on the DS don't support ZIP because the DS is very slow and doesn't have much RAM so even unzipping a small file would be slow. You can forget about zipped DS roms.
Try the soft reset hotkey to exit the emulator, I'm not sure what it's set to on that card, probably L+R+A+B+X+Y or something like that. Maybe you can check it in the loader settings.
