Hey, can you make the drastic emulator compatible with Nintendo 3DS games? This would be awesome and would make this emulator more popular. I know something like this would take a long time to do and I'm not asking for an emulator in like one day but I would love it to be an add-on for the drastic emulator. It could be an add-on in development or something like that. Thanks for listening to my idea.

Unfortunately, there is no hint about an Android 3DS emulator. Thank you for sharing your suggestion. :D

One day, I guarantee you. One day it will be possible. We must be patient until then.

If you want to talk to some emulator developers actually focused on 3DS emulaton, I suggest contacting the Citra team. They've got a great 3DS emulator for PC in development, I'm sure they can better answer your questions.

They already said that they will not do a 3DS emulator on Android in the near future because the code used for the PC version is completely incompatible with the ARM processors that most smartphones have, also the graphical engine needs to be completely rewritten to support at least Vulkan.

Oh. Well, maybe eventually.

Man, if I knew Android Coding I would make a 3DS Emulator myself and and call it "Too-Drastic" or "Tri-Drastic". You know, something clever like that. That would be cool.

But I guess I will have to buy a Windows PC. Thanks everyone.

You should have been a pretty experienced developer, coding an emulator from scratch is not that simple
