The Nintendo DS is a handheld console produced by Nintendo in 2004/2005. The main selling point was the use of dual screens for gameplay, with one being a touchscreen. It is the only console to have overtaken the PS2 in lifetime sales, as a result of attracting a large amount of casual players into the gaming community.
Emulators
| Name | Operating System(s) | Latest Version | GBA | NDS | Recommended |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DeSmuME | Windows, Linux, OS X | SVN | ✗ | ✓ | ✓ |
| No$GBA | Windows, MS-DOS | 2.7 | ✓ | ✓ | ✗ |
| higan | Windows, Linux, OS X | 0.92 | ✓ | ✓ | ✗ |
Comparisons
DeSmuME is very good, and very well developed. Enabling the Dynarec emulation option improves speed tremendously.
No$GBA focuses on speed, and has major compatibility issues and glitches. The 3D is not very good. However, it might be an option for a very low end machine, for the select games that it does not have problems with. Not otherwise recommended.
