The older 3DSis less powerful but can still run some cores at full speed, like 2048, Gambatte, QuickNES, NXEngine, and PicoDrive.|Opposed to normal use of RetroArch, these are all self-contained emulators, albeit sharing the same automatic configuration.| * Snes9x for Screenshot-taking is broken. Upon exiting RetroArch 3DS - based on snes9x 1, press the Start button.43If you use retroarch via homebrew launcher, in 3dsx format, please notice that some cores crash upon opening without further action. Runs a good majority of games wellThe loaded core, crashing or not, even on old 3DSis saved into sd:/retroarch/2DS'sretroarch-salamander. It's recommended cfg file which is where retroarch remembers the core to use be first loaded. Therefore, if you mistakenly load a New 3DS if problematic crashing core, you want won't be able to run games launch ReteroArch successfully again until you manually delete that uses file from the SuperFX or SAsdcard. Alternatively, you can make set it the readonly attribute, while it's still working.Currently, RetroArch has no support for the 3DS's Gyro controls. ===[[RetroArch]] (unofficial)=== <B>Unofficial <code> [https://gbatemp.net/threads/unofficial-3ds-retroarch-1 chip properlybuilds.462252 3DS builds]</B></code>|}{| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitablesortable" style="widthtext-align: 100%center;"|+ New3DS performance! colspan=2 widthCore!

Because it's technically running a "virtual" GBA, it can't provide features that are normally available on other emulators, such as savestates, screen filtering, or sleep mode, however it does have high compatibility with the exception of cartridges with special hardware, for example, WarioWare Twisted, which has a gyroscope built in. If you're using an old 3DS/2DS, this is the best option to play GBA games. There are two ways to take advantage of this firmware:

| * r3Ddragon - It's kind of surprising that Nintendo never released a Virtual Console for the Virtual Boy on the 3DS, especially given how small the library of games were for the system and how both utilize 3D effects <strike>and cause eyestrain</strike>. What makes this emulator stand out is the fact that it's able to display the graphics in 3D the way it was intended, something that is almost impossible to do on other platforms; unfortunately compatibility is still low and requires a New 3DS to run.

The major advantages of oaf compared to VC injection is that it performs faster and there aren't any issues with the sound, it utilizes the native hardware (even with VC injection there are issues with the sound, ex.: "Fire Emblem"). It can load the ROM through the SD card instead of having to convert and install them, but needs to be launched on boot instead of being able to use the 3DS HOME Menu (there's ways to make a forwarder for in on the HOME menu, but requires additional setup to get it to work). One major issue is there's a chance that it may not detect the correct save format or will corrupt the existing save file so make sure to backup your saves beforehand (they are currently trying fix it by having a better database for save detection, if you're interested [https://github.com/profi200/open_agb_firm/issues/9 you can help]).** To install, simply put the .firm file in the <code>/luma/payloads/</code> folder, hold START and power on to load up the chainloader to launch it. There's no way of exiting out once the program starts, so you will need to turn it off and redo the step to load it if you wanted to change games.

===Virtual Console Injection===Some have tried injecting alternate ROMs in the available Virtual Console releases (MD, GG, NES, GBA Ambassador, GBC, Japanese emulated SFC compilations) with varying degrees of success. The emulators used for Virtual Console are not as accurate as other emulators so compatibility isn't perfect (the only exception is GBA since it runs it natively, not emulation), Sega systems in particular have high compatibility however.<br> There's an easy tool that will convert and inject any supported ROM file as its associated VC application called [https://gbatemp.net/threads/discussion-new-super-ultimate-injector-nsui.500376/ New Super Ultimate Injector]. It's an all in one tool and can even remotely install the injection provided your 3DS is connected to the same network. It's currently in beta, but it's still really useful. ===Nintendo 64Commodore Amiga===

Because it's technically running a "virtual" GBA, it can't provide features that are normally available on other emulators, such as savestates, screen filtering, or sleep mode, however it does have high compatibility with the exception of cartridges with special hardware, for example, WarioWare Twisted, which has a gyroscope built in. If you're using an old 3DS/2DS, this is the best option to play GBA games. There are two ways to take advantage of this firmware:

| * PCSX-ReARMed (RetroArch) - Thanks to the work of many developers, it is now possible to have full speed 60 FPS emulation for a majority of games and support for .CHD compression formats.

The nightly builds have seen major improvements since the initial release and can even play some of the more demanding games at full speed ([https://www.gamebrewreddit.orgcom/wiki/Zelda_ROTH_3DS ZeldaROTH]| [https:r/3dshacks/github.comcomments/nop90jvkotb/ZeldaROTHfull_speed_psx_finally_here_on_new_3ds_new_2ds_xl/releases gitSee here]for some tips), so it's better to use that until the next stable release.| ?** NOTE: This emulator is mainly targeted for the New 3DS models, so don't expect the old 3DS models to run well, if at all.| {{✓}} ==Uzebox=={| {{✗}}class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;"! scope="col"| ?Name! scope="col"| ?Version! scope="col"| ?[[Emulation Accuracy|Accuracy]]! scope="col"| [http:<abbr title="Free/Libre and Open-Source Software">FLOSS</www.zeldaroth.fr/us/zroth.php The Legend of Zelda: Return of the Hylianabbr>! scope="col"|Active! scope="col"|[[Citra]]! scope="col"|[[Recommended Emulators|Recommended]]
