{| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable" style="width: 100%;"! colspan=2 width="250"| Open agb firm|-| * open_agb_firm <i>(Name not finalized)</i> - A custom FIRM payload that takes advantage of the built-in GBA firmware, it's still in early development but has an alpha build available. 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.|} ===Game & WatchPC9801===

|Z26 3DS*TWiLight Menu++ - Not technically an "emulator", rather it's a frontend for a separate program, | [[nds-bootstrap]], which allows for an NDS ROM to be loaded from an SD cardhttps://gbatemp. The program is originally designed for the DSi, however it's able to work on the 3DS by utilizing the virtual DSi (aka the TWL_FIRM or "DS Mode") that the 3DS has for backwardsnet/threads/preview-compatibility. Compatibility isn't the same as using a flashcart, however it's still pretty high with only a few games having issues or triggering antiz26-piracy protections (newer versions now come with AP patches for most games and will patch them if needed at launch). It also comes pre3ds-bundled with a variety of emulators used on the DS and a workatari-in2600-progress GBA hypervisor, [[GBARunner2]emulator.397827 2.0], that works to some degree. **[https://docs.googlegithub.com/spreadsheetsnop90/d/1LRTkXOUXraTMjg1eedz_f7b5jiuyMv2x6e_jY_nyHSc/edit#gid=0 Compatiblity Listz26-3ds git].Includes a bunch of popular emulators, and can be found in | LowThe list includes:| {{✓}}* A5200DS - (Atari 5200)| {{✗}}* A7800DS - (Atari 7800 ProSystem)| {{✓}}* A8DS - (Atari800XL/XEGS)| {{~}}* AmEDS - (Amstrad CPC)|}* ColecoDS - (ColecoVision)* CrocoDC - (Amstrad CPC)* GameYob - (GB===Atari 5200 /GBC)800===* GBARunner2 {| class="wikitable" style="text- (GBA)align:center;"* jEnesisDS - (Sega Megadrive/Genesis)! scope="col"|Name* nesDS - (NES)! scope="col"|Version* NGPDS - (Neo Geo Pocket)! scope="col"|[[Emulation Accuracy|Accuracy]]* Nintellivision - (Intellivision)* NitroGrafx - (PC-Engine)* NitroSwan - (WonderSwan)* PicoDriveTWL - (Genesis! scope="col"|<abbr title="Free/Megadrive)* PokeMini Libre and Open- (Pokémon Mini)* S8DS - (GG/MSSource Software">FLOSS</SG-1000)abbr>* SNEmulDS - (SNES)* StellaDS - (Atari 2600)|} {| class! scope="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitablecol" style|Active! scope="width: 100%;col"|[[Citra]]! colspan=2 widthscope="250col"| DeSmuME[[Recommended Emulators|Recommended]]

===MSX=Native firmware==== The 3DS does include native firmware for a GBA mode which was mainly used to run ambassador releases instead of having to develop an emulator for them. 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:

* DaedalusX64 3DS DeSmuME - The Nintendo 64 an experimental port of DeSmuME that has always since been known to be a hard system to emulate, which is why many were skeptical about how feasible it would be to have an emulator for the system on the 3DS. While still in early developmentabandoned, it has shown a lot of improvements thanks to using a dynamic recompiler, with some games running at a playable state. Versions before v1.0 also supported using stereoscopic 3D (at the cost of slower performance), which isnwasn't a feature a lot of emulators havevery compatible.

|-
| *TWiLight Menu++ - Not technically an "emulator", rather it's a frontend for a separate program, [[Snes9xnds-bootstrap]] , which allows for an NDS ROM to be loaded from an SD card. The program is originally designed for the DSi, however it's able to work on the 3DS by utilizing the virtual DSi (aka the TWL_FIRM or "DS Mode") that the 3DShas for backwards-compatibility. Compatibility isn't the same as using a flashcart, however it's still pretty high with only a few games having issues or triggering anti-piracy protections (newer versions now come with AP patches for most games and will patch them if needed at launch). It also comes pre-bundled with a variety of emulators used on the DS and a work-in-progress GBA hypervisor, [[GBARunner2]], that works to some degree. | **[https://githubdocs.google.com/matbo87spreadsheets/d/snes9x_3ds1LRTkXOUXraTMjg1eedz_f7b5jiuyMv2x6e_jY_nyHSc/tags gitedit#gid=0 Compatiblity List].| MidIncludes a bunch of popular emulators, and can be found in | {{✓}}The list includes:| {{✓}}* A5200DS - (Atari 5200)| {{✓}}<small> * A7800DS - (New3DSAtari 7800 ProSystem)<* A8DS - (Atari800XL/small>XEGS)| {{✓}}* AmEDS - (Amstrad CPC)|* ColecoDS -(ColecoVision)| [[Snes9x]] for 3DS Stable Version* CrocoDC - (Amstrad CPC)| [https:* GameYob - (GB/GBC)* GBARunner2 - (GBA)* jEnesisDS - (Sega Megadrive/github.com/bubble2k16/snes9x_3ds/releases 1.30]Genesis)| Mid* nesDS - (NES)| {{✓}}* NGPDS - (Neo Geo Pocket)| {{✓}}* Nintellivision - (Intellivision)| {{✓}}<small> * NitroGrafx - (New3DSPC-Engine)</small>| {{✓}}* NitroSwan - (WonderSwan)|* PicoDriveTWL -(Genesis/Megadrive)| blargSNES* PokeMini - (Pokémon Mini)| [http:* S8DS - (GG/MS/blargsnes.kuribo64.net 1.4][https://github.com/Arisotura/blargSnes git]SG-1000)| Mid* SNEmulDS - (SNES)| {{✓}}| {{✓}}| {{✓}}| {{~}}* StellaDS - (Atari 2600)

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:

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.|} ===Game & Watch===

|{{~}}<ref group=N>New Nintendo 3DS/2DS is highly recommended to use any of the Super Mario 64 3DS ports (sm64ex-alo, sm64-minimap, etc.) and can use 800px but even then, using certain graphical settings such as No Drawing Distance when building a custom version can greatly reduce frame rate even on a New Nintendo 3DS/2DS. On older Nintendo 3DS/2DS models, use the 400px version.</ref>
