    Wink 3DS Section

    There should be a page here for Nintendo 3DS Roms and Emulators

    There is a (semi)working 3DS emulator called Citra, but so far it seems there aren't any ROMs. (Personally, I think there should at least be Pokemon Y - The only 3DS game I have)

    Citra is really the only emulator out there - and it's still being worked on. It's made progress but it's still not really capable of playing commercial games I think. Speaking of the games I don't think there are even any proper dumps yet.

    Besides the system is still too current anyways.

    Apparently Citra needs the ROMs to be in a certain format for it to work. I never payed too much attention and ended up deleting it. And also there are no official builds.

    Well, I don't know. I think the admins MIGHT disagree, but I personally think it would be OK. However, like I said, we may have to wait for Nintendo's next handheld console so that we can make the ROMs (what with the constant updates and new games for the 3DS).

    Run it? You mean get Citra to work, or get the ROMs?

    If you try to upload them to this site, or link an outside upload here, you will probably be banned.


    Be afraid. Be very afraid.

    Citra. I'm sure a way must exist to dump the games but Citra just isn't upto snuff yet.

    I think that's a moot point right now anyways

    It's still in early stages, I don't think it'll get finished anytime soon.

    Me either. These things usually take quite some time.

    Citra has working audio and video upscaling now, so things are progressing.
    Still better off using a real console with a flashcart or CFW.


    No roms allowed here.

    Spoiler warning:

    The issue with Still-sold Systems having their games dumped is developers still make money off that and they'll gladly go after the site, while older games do get attacked by DMCAs, it's very rare compared to the SNES or ZX Spectrum. Even with Wii games it's a rough territory, that's why there isn't really a official Wii section on the site (and the ISOs are massive even compressed/cleaned, that'd need to be a paid-only section to really get that done).

    There are 3DS decrypted dumps out online, but they're typically pay-to-access .Torrent files and take a few days to download a single one. I guess you're out of luck :/
