The '''[[wikipedia:Nintendo 3DS |Nintendo 3DS]]''' is an eighth-generation handheld game console by Nintendo, released on March 27, 2011 for {{inflation|USD|249|2011}}. The original model and the 2DS had a dual-core ARM11 MPCore at 268 MHz and a single-core ARM9, 128MB of RAM and 6MB of VRAM, and a DMP PICA200 GPU. The New 3DS and New 2DS XL models upgrade this to an 804 MHz quad-core ARM11 and 256MB of RAM, along with an extra pair of shoulder buttons and a right analogue stick.
The most notable feature of this console is the use of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autostereoscopy autostereoscopic] (i.e. without glasses) 3D, which can be configured using a slider. This was omitted on the cost-reduced 2DS and New 2DS XL models, which was released due to eye health concerns with children whom Nintendo advised not to use the 3DS's stereoscopic mode (though it is speculated that said advisories were more for liability reasons in case of a health-related lawsuit).

;[[Citra]]:An open-source Nintendo 3DS emulator made by experienced emulator developers. The devs insist that it's still experimental, but as of mid-2019 around half of all games are fully playable with minor or no issues. [https://citra-emu.org/entry/announcing-citra-android/ An official Android version was released in May of 2020].

:Based on Citra. made by valentin, the person who fixed luigi mansion 2 crash before citra could. Vvctre is The best way to play Luigi's Mansion 2 on PC, since it changes the CPU tickspeed to 21000, and the CPU clock speed to 85%.(make sure to set these settings before u run the game, and vvctre is the best emulator to run the nintendo 3ds os).
;[[3dmoo]]:Another open-source Nintendo 3DS emulator, made by experienced developers in the DS hacking scene. It was released shortly after Citra and received similar progress for a few months, but was eventually aborted by its authors after a while.
;[[TronDS]]:A closed-source Nintendo 3DS emulator, presumably made by the iDeaS author. Little is known about it other than that it can run simple homebrew. It cannot be used for playing games.
;Corgi3DS:An unique 3DS emulator designed for macOS systems. Its GitHub activity started on [https://github.com/PSI-Rockin/Corgi3DS/commit/1b81c7e00c9a7a73f2da12d07ec3a9e4bc69c6ac May 5, 2019]. Main programmer is a self-proclaimed dog lover and has previously created CorgiDS and DobieStation, though the former seemed to be abandoned. Corgi3DS is mainly indigenous but the preliminary [https://github.com/PSI-Rockin/Corgi3DS/commit/a60b06683495e4e8fd0c170ec4ca8c453ce31609 Wi-Fi code] was ported from [[melonDS]]' code.(project on a indefinite hiatus, PSI said this about the matter "Haven't worked on it in several months, it's basically a hobby project of mine that I touch when I feel the urge").
;[[Mikage]]:A commercial, Android-exclusive 3DS emulator optimized for smartphones and other mobile devices. Made by a former author of Citra and other emulators. On an indefinite hiatus.
==Emulation issues==
Citra currently can't emulate any of the 3DS's online features aside from LAN multiplayer.
It can't connect to nintendos servers but
Users can create rooms and play through the internet
corgi3ds currently can't run any game without heavy stuttering.
citra emulates the home menu although u can't launch anything on it(use vvctre for the os emulation)
currently there is no full screen support in linux vvctre, valentin said he can't fix it.

===3DS vs. CIA===
<!--this section is pretty inaccurate-->
Now user folder is what is the system archive of 3ds you need it to display video
Now put user folder in folder of citra or in c: drive (see some YouTube videos , read some reddit posts you will understand it)
For user folder:- [http://www.mediafire.com/file/brdbqzng4iuvvcz/Citra_60_FPS_100%2525_gurantee.exe/file]Extract the archive and then take the user folder and put that to the latest build
(This is a ogl 3.3 fix using mesa driver). Then extract this archive using 7-zip (don't use this as your citra this is an old version. Compatibility is very low and speed may be terrible in your device). Copy the 'user' folder you see on that folder, download the latest citra version on to your desktop then paste this user folder there.
