Another revision to reflect Citra's current state. The last paragraph can be removed now.
===Comparisons===
* [[Citra]] is an early in development open-source 3DS emulator made by experienced emulator developers. It is considered experimental, and it runs homebrew applications with a decent degree of compatibility. Though it can play several many commercial games to some extent, they have the emulator has various graphical issueswith most games, no sound, and very slow speeds. Citra is being regularly worked on, and progress in it is faster than expected for most emulators. However, there's still no telling how long it will be before it is suitable for playing games to completion.
* [[3dmoo]] is another open-source 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.
===Emulation issues===
'''The Nintendo 3DS currently has no emulators that play games at acceptable levels of accuracywith all features intact.''' This is mainly because for a long time the hardware was documented only sparingly, and homebrew code execution was hard to achieve. Nowadays, the hardware is better known and homebrew is being developed. It will still take a while until emulators can be used to reliably play Many games. If you see boot now, with a site claim to play 3DS games few even remotely wellhaving no noticeable graphical issues. However, it is most likely a scamsound has not been implemented. Do not download or install a program This, along with other various issues, exist that claims to play make 3DS games without proof that it works. A YouTube video is emulation not proof. Public source code and news sites reporting legitimacy areready for prime time just yet.
