3DS emulation on these things have heavy input lag, please understand

but i already own a retro handheld. it's called the gameboy advance and i bought it back in the early 2000s

Smash 3DS was technically impressive but it's terrible for the hardware

The 3ds is not a retro console.
I never got to play on one so it's not fucking retro.

i sold my thor cuz it was overkill. so i have no chinkhelds now.

>>749507401
since op is retarded and didnt link the bideo. he said he doesn't know what he's doing and was button mashing. im in the same boat and i would do the same since i've never spent more than 10 minutes on ANY fighting game. pretty much the same thing would happen to a fighting game autist who has never played a fps game in his life. he would get destroyed by very easy bots in cs 1.6.

>>749508257
eh monhun emulation is pretty good on these nu chinkhelds.

I do, just not the hand torture crap modeled after the ABORTION that was the DS line.

if you have a dogshit device and bad settings it has input lag, that is not input lag in the footage. it's just retardation.

Any PSVita chads in here? Using Moonlight to play games remotely is pretty sweet.

I was thinking about the last clamshell "chinkheld" thread and like I said there the 3DS' gimmicks like the 3D, AR, Streetpass, the camera, that silly sound app, those 3D icons that display on the top of the screen, and probably more I can't think of was all pretty neat and it made owning that console fun. Anyway I feel like for a proper dual screen replacement it has to feel like I just picked up where I left off with my 3DS but just way more powerful. I want that 3D, streetpass, all of it along with my steam games and emulation! Seeing the AnyPS5 project I wonder if it's possible to do a similar thing with 3DS/DS and Vita since all these handhelds are all arm processors.

Ayn Thor sisters... its over...
>>
>>749507128
Because I own a real 3DS. Fuck your chink knock offs.
>>
Just played 4 hours of Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories on my 3DS XL. Native backwards compatibility. ZERO sound glitches. Slowdown is the same as on a real GBA in really intense AOE attacks.
Can't say I have any care in the world for your "Ayn Thors" and shit. Even going from the best emulators on my PC and then opening up the 3DS again, there's just something ultra smooth and clean about the genuine 3DS experience, like that shit has zero latency between video or audio, and everything feels more instant compared to emulators.
>>
>>749515549
There are so many fundamentals of that game that you are not doing in this clip...
>>
>>749515619
I specially love the ghosting and dark tint that I have to manually patch out in every single 3DS GBA .cia
You do you, I'll play GBAshit on literally ANY other fucking device because I'm not retarded
>>
>>749515748
I stopped making home screen CIAs. I downloaded every single GBA title of interest the day before Myrient closed and dumped them on my card, and then you just hold start at boot to open boot menu and select "open_agb_firm" which brings up a file browser, and then I just have all GBA roms in a folder, you pick one and you play the game.
Zero ghosting. Everything looks as crisp as it can on a 3DS, and palying from the XL it also looks fine in 1:1 pixel ratio. Like, I get the natural scanlines of the 3DS screen to look at which gives the games the look they had on an SP.
>>
playing shit on AYN Thor definitely has a graphical upgrade but I hate, hate, HATE the input lag the emulation layer has compared to N3DS
>>
>>749515860
Didn't know you could do that already. Still a fucking shit way to play, I prefer to have the option to fast forward and do autofire whenever I feel like it. The scanlines seem like a cope to me, though I only tried them on my N2DS XL, so maybe the screen was too different? idc
>>
>>749507128
Oh God the 3ds is retro now?
>>
Garbage game aside, I now feel like a retard for buying a cheap steam deck recently instead of the Ayn Thor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gt7DaUXBABY
With all of the recomp shit happening, it wouldn't surprise me to see 3DS games run flawlessly without input delay soon too
>>
I just own the original handhelds. Chink knockoffs are sovlless slop.

None of these devices are good. They are all trying to recreate the experience of playing on a Nintendo 3DS, and none of them succeed.
3DS emulation is the first stumbling block. It will get better one day, but currently, 3DS runs poorly on all hardware, even hjgh-end gaming PCs. The shader compilation stutters have no solution right now. Every single time you view a visual effect that the game has not shown you yet, it will stutter hard. Eventually the game will cache most of the shaders and the game will become decently playable, but it is a consistent, unavoidable reminder that you are not experiencing the original game.
The physical design of the devices is the other problem. The 3DS' autostereoscopic screen was expensive, proprietary technology that will never be included in any kind of reproduction. So at best, you're aiming for the 2DS experience here. Except they can't even get to that level of authenticity because the touch screen is wrong. They use capacitive touch panels like a modern cell phone. That means you have to touch it with your finger, or with a fat rubber pen the size of a finger. The pinpoint precision of the DS touch screen is not replicated here.
So these are expensive handhelds that can deliver, at best, a highly compromised version of the 3DS experience. I guess you can also use them for emulation, but at that point you're playing on a weird form factor for no reason. If you want to play 3DS games, you need to buy a 3DS. This is not a functional replacement.

>>749516080
All I know is, there's basically perfect blacks on 3DS XL because the edge-lighting is far outside the borders, and the screen is still big enough that the image looks very clear and easy to read, and the scanlines occur so naturally because of the blown up screen with small pixel density, that this is genuinely the best experience I've had playing GBA games since I had a GBA.

PS Vita would also be nice, since it's small and fits like a GBA but its emulators suck, and the second best would be just retroarching it on PC or playing NSO on the Switch or Switch 2, but meh. GBA emulation is near spotless but it does still have odd glitches here and there, and this on my 3DS simply doesn't, while looking super crisp too. Zero audio latency either.

This!

Using a handheld game console is like using a console like the Xbox Series X in the year 2026! PCs and smartphones are objectively better than consoles and handheld consoles in every ways! All you need is a smartphone and an Abxylute S9!

That shit's not going to last forever and it's getting exponentially harder to replace them if shit goes wrong because of the shitty second hand market. I agree that chink knockoffs aren't the most ideal way to play these games but this is pretty much the only way to ensure we can play these games with their intended form factor going forward.
