Overview
Mikage is a Nintendo 3DS emulator for Android devices developed by Tony Wasserka, also known as neobrain, a prominent emudev who has contributed to Dolphin, PPSSPP, and Citra. Mikage was created from scratch as neobrain saw an opportunity for a better-than-average-quality 3DS emulator on Android. While the three aforementioned projects are open-source, Mikage is currently closed, though neobrain is interested in opening much of the source code at some point. Mikage was publicly announced on the official website and Twitter account on July 1, 2019, though neobrain had been working on the project for three years prior, starting in 2016. He got The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D to work in it in 2018.
There is a small but growing number of games that currently run, including The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D, Cubic Ninja, Retro City Rampage DX, Nano Assault EX, and more.
