Multiple games at once?

Post by Guilt » Wed Nov 11, 2015 5:10 pm

I was wondering if you guys had a way to have more then one game play at a time. If not was that an idea you could make happen. Any help or info would help thanks.

That sounds possible and would work in theory, but at a price (lag), unless you're using a device with gaming-quality specs (such as an Nvidia Shield TV).
And emulating both DSes on the same device MIGHT (sort of) solve the multiplayer issue (the transmissions would be a lot easier to transfer between emulated systems that way), but the method would be best used on a set-top box than a phone due to specs.

You can also find me on Reddit (u/Ericbazinga) and Discord (in the DraStic Discord server). You'll find me in those places almost daily and here almost never.

It depends what you want. If you think running multiple instances of a game in the emulator will magically allow you to use some multiplayer options.... (it won't work)


If you just want to play 2 different games at the same time just to do it well here I might be able to help.
Ok well this seems interesting so I will help with what I can.

A few requirements for any chance of this working.
1. A very fast device we are talking high end 800 series snapdragon (maybe skip the 810), tegra k1 or x1, and maybe a high end 7k series exynos (maybe)
2. Along with a high end processor 3Gb or more of ram would also not be a bad idea
3. Odds are the only way to run multiple copies of a single app that might (repeat might) work will probably require you to buy a second copy of drastic (but you get the bonus of helping exo and lordus, so its a minor thing)
4. Root access to your device.

Here are the 3 methods and odds are only switchme method will work since drastic uses google verification so even just changing the app's name may cause it to fail the license check
