Mikage is an open-source [[Nintendo 3DS emulators|Nintendo 3DS emulator]] for Android phones and tablets. This project has been in the making since 2016 and managed to play its first commercial title in early 2019.
The project is led by neobrain, known in the emulation community for their work in emulators such as [[Dolphin]], [[PPSSPP]], and [[Citra]]. Due to the lack of a good solution for 3DS emulation in Android, and the has been decided to create an emulator for 3DS in Android.

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 early opening much of the [[source code]] at some point. Mikage was publicly announced on the official website and Twitter account on [https://mikage.app/hello-mikage/ 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.The There is a small but growing number of games that you can currently run are , including The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D, Cubic Ninja, and Retro City Rampage DX, Nano Assault EX, and more. Progress blog reports can be found at the official Mikage website. A private Discord channel link (much more active than Reddit) is only provided to those on a $5 US tier or above in the Patreon account. On August 15, 2020, neobrain announced that he was putting the project on [https://mikage.app/good-bye-friends/ an indefinite hiatus] due to lack of interest from the community and not being able to rise enough supporters on Patreon to make it worth continuing development without resorting to shadier methods of ads or pricing the app. It could also be due to the fact Citra now has a working Android port, so public support has shifted towards a more developed, open sourced emulator, making it harder to back a closed sourced alternative. At the moment, it's unclear if Mikage will become open sourced.
