Homebrew Windows 95 on N3DS

[Kioku]

Got to the boot screen, and now it's just black. Sad day.

or a better question is: how can I make the A button the enter button?

I am having the same issue. Did you ever get it working?

I think a CIA build is better in term of RAM for old

I just got my new 3ds to boot it up. Not much to do, but I couldn't help but smile when I saw my 3ds ACTUALLY running 95. It's honestly like a dream. This is the kind of stuff I hoped for ever since I found out about 3ds hacking.

But this gets me thinking. Assuming the mouse and keyboard can be implemented somehow, hopefully through a touch-screen virtual keyboard for typing, and the circle pad for mouse, what else could we do? Does this have the capability of storing files at all through a virtual hard drive? is this capable of opening and running programs? Could it be possible to emulate a internet connection using your wi-fi? Or is Win3ds95 just doomed to being a cool distraction? Even with all of the limitations of Windows 95, it would still be the coolest thing ever to have a portable personal computer INSIDE my 3ds. I would pay money for that.

I'm getting a loading from A:/ drive and nothing happens?

I'm just getting a black screen when launching the .bat file.

What we really need is windows vista on 3DS. Everyone wants HAWT right?

Nope, Vista is too old, What we need is Windows 10 Mobile/Android 6.0 on the 3DS. Those are way more optimized. Everyone wants this.

You obviously didn't understand the joke

 

[laharl22]

Any news for old3fs version?

You obviously didn't understand the joke

and you didn't understand mine

 

[ElyosOfTheAbyss]

Windows 10 is still better then vista but whatever let's not get off topic

 

[SLiV3R]

I think mouse support and a virtual keyboard would be awesome!

 

[NeSchn]

This is trending on Facebook xD

Congrats yall! This is actually super rad.

Hi guys, I recorded a quick video of it booting up and uploaded it to YouTube so those with O3DS can see it!
Here you go! (might be upside down until YT finishes processing the edits)

Once you're at that screen, you need to change the retroarch config to let you use the d-pad as arrow keys and start to enter.
To do this, press the bottom screen to open up the menu, press B to go back to the main menu, go to settings, input, input user 1 binds, and change device type to Joystick (4axis/4buttons + kbd arrows) and then exit the settings.
You can then navigate the menus using the 3DS controls.

dosbox was running on 3ds over two years ago, an update that takes advantage of the extra ram isn't particularly earth shattering. A native version of android or windows rt in a hardware vm would be impressive.

 

[laharl22]

There are a build for old3ds?

 

[Dracari]

There are a build for old3ds?

people are working around an Issue that simply makes it crash on load w/ an o3DS a sad fact maybe it simply isnt going to happen.

Maybe its Funny to point out that a decade ago a PSP could already run Win95. Even my old Nokia N95 could do it
I'm glad Nintendo finally came to the point where this is possible on their handhelds....
