NooDS is an open-source Nintendo DS and GBA emulator for Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation Vita, and Wii U.

Usage[edit]

NooDS doesn't provide high-level emulation of the BIOS yet, so you'll need to provide BIOS and firmware files dumped from your physical DS. The file paths can be configured in the settings. The emulator has automatic save type detection, though it may not be accurate. If you load a new game and saving doesn't work, you'll have to manually change the save type. You can reference a list like ADVANsCEne's for finding what save type your game uses.
