      Hello. I was wondering. Is it possible to emulate 3ds on Retropie? Like citra or something. if it is. How do I install it? And what about the touchscreen part of the 3ds?

        @omission229 I believe Citra needs a 64 bit OS and has some fairly heavy CPU requirements so it won't currently run on Retropie.

        I've been wondering about this myself as I'm tempted to try another experimental Dolphin build using standalone Dolphin on a 64 bit OS. I think Citra has similar requirements so it may work. If it does run I don't expect it to run very well.

        Currently running:
        Retropie 4.8.9 on a Pi Zero 2W (Overclock Settings: CPU 1400Mhz)
        ES-DE on a GMKtec K6 (Windows 11, 32GB RAM)

          lr-desmume2015 works well for me.
          It is avail from the experimental packages in retropie_setup.sh.
          Touch is either emulated via Mouse or analog stick.
          If you want touch in correct orientation for upright/book mode games check the config and prelimary patch here.

              I'm pretty sure lr-desmume2015 does not support 3DS games.

                  NDS = Nintendo DS, which is not the same as Nintendo 3DS. For NDS, there's also DraStic, which runs pretty well.

                      Sorry for providing hints into wrong direction. I must admit I did not follow the portable devices section of Nintendo HW well.
