Getting your retro game on is easier than ever on your Nintendo
DS, Nintendo DSi and Nintendo 3DS system. All you need is either the Nintendo R4 DS, the R4i SDHC or the newest R4 3DS
Cards and a few freeware emulators to play your old classic retro
games, in a pocket sized system. Just which games and consoles can you
play? Read on for the short list of some of the best emulators for the
Nintendo R4 DS cards.
Let’s do a system by system run down of the very best of the emulators we’ve had a chance to try. We would also love to hear from you, so you can let us know which games and systems YOU like the best. We have our favorites, and there are 4 old classic console systems that we love being able to play on our Nintendo hand held.
Snes on 3DS – Super Nintendo Entertainment System.
This 16-bit game console was the leader when it came to the console wars of the 90′s. With a slew of unique games, excellent graphics and sound to rock out to. Some of the best games for 16-bit systems came out for the Snes. Donkey Kong Country, Yoshi’s Island, Uniracers, and a whole lot more. So many games were released that it would be hard to pick even a top 10 list of favorites. They were just that good.
In order to play your SNES games on your DS, DSi or 3DS, you’ll want to get yourself the SnesDS emulator. You can download it from our downloads section. While there are others, such as SneMuleDS, SnesDS has so far proven to load the games the best, and offers pretty fast emulation – even for those graphics and hardware intensive games that other Snes emulators have problems with. Using it is easy too. Copy over snesDS.nds to your R4 micro sd card, make a folder on the card called GAMES, and put your games in there. When you power up your R4 3DS or Nintendo R4 DS, just select the snesDS.nds file and it will load up just as any other game would. Except you’ll see a menu and a list with all of your games on there that you can pick from and play right away!
Nes on 3DS – Nintendo Entertainment System
When the NES first hit the video game world, it took it by storm. After the massive collapse of the video game industry after the Atari 2600, no one ever thought that another games only system would do well enough to justify putting it on store shelves. Oh boy were they every wrong. While the Atari 2600 died, the Nes system flourished. Gaming computers “disguised” as computers were the big hit. Systems like the C64, Atari 520, Amiga, and others. The NES showed that there was plenty of room for a games only video game system in the living room. Their secret? No one really knows, but we’re guessing it had a lot to do with top quality games that were miles beyond better than any other computer or game system could provide. The moment when you first put in that Mario World cartridge, and started to play, was like nothing else before it. Gone were the bleeps and beeps and choppy graphics. In their place were games filled with colors, sprites and amazing music.
Playing NES games on your Nintendo 3DS or DSi needs only the nesDS emulator. Much like SnesDS, nesDS is also one of several emulators available. It too has proven that it’s by far the easiest to use, and the most fun to play because it does emulation without bugs, glitches or slow downs. Every single game we’ve tried had worked right out of the box.
Setup is essentially the same for both of these emulators. The archive you download will come in .zip format, which you’ll have to uncompress on your PC or MAC. Inside the archive is where all the goodness is. You’ll find snesds.nds in the Super Nes emulator zip file, and nesds.nds in the NES emulator zip file. Copy one, or both, over to your micro SD card. As mentioned in the SnesDS part of this post, you can create different folders for your different emulators. One could be SNES GAMES while the other is NES Games. This isn’t a must of course, but it sure does help to keep things organized when you’re trying to load up and play the game you’re looking for.
Why would you want to play Snes on the 3DS? Because it’s fun, that’s why. Some of the best games ever made came out for these early game systems. In fact, if you spend some time looking back at the history of some of your favorite games today, you’d be surprised at just how many of them had their very first series on either the Super NES or the NES system. That’s pretty impressive! Characters, game story lines, everything, can be traced right back to their roots. Check the video below for a tase of some SNES action on the Nintendo DS lite.
