The first SFC emulator for 3DS console

It is realy a fantastic news for 3DS games player.The SFC emulator offers a several 
new features and it will make more functions work perfact

I think you could not wait to know more about that.Then let go to get SFC emulator work.

First of all,the emulator include two zip files

1.*blargSnes.3ds(3DS ROM)
2.*blargSnes.elf(ELF file).Someone said it may be useful for alternate homebrew loaders.

The new features it supports

1.PPU modes 0,1,2,3,4,7
2.DMA(with faster paths for VRAM/CGRAM/OAM),HDMA
3.SPC700
4.SRAM with auto-saving
5.Joypad for player 1 (circle pad also works)

And there are selveral future features it supports:

1.It may get 3DS to be played with sound
2.Anyone would expand chips,Star Fox in 3D.
3.Renderer makes hardware to be accelerated.

Then you should know how to use this emulator.


You need a way to run ARM11 userland homebrew on your 3DS.If you used gateway,it would be easy for you.You can just copy blargSnes.3ds to the micro sd card of your gateway.If you use other flashcarts,then you can do this by following your homebrew loader insttuctions.

You are on your own for getting SNES ROMS.

For example.You should create a folder,the name you make whatever for it,and copy SNES ROMs in the SD’s SD card(but not a gateway micro SD card)You can play savegames in the same folder as well.They should be the same name as the corresponding ROM and have a .srm extension.
After that,you can start blargSnes,Select your ROM and press A or B after you see a ROM selection .See what happens.You can pause gamesplay by tapping the touchscreen.When paused,resume by pressing A or B.
Attention:Never return to home menu before having paused first.Meanwhile,You should avoid playing with 3D slider or closing/reopening your 3DS when you use blargSnes.

In the end,I should point out some issues may happen after you use SFC emulator.

1.Potential loss of images when closing/reopening the 3DS or pressing home button and
retureing to blargSnes.If quitting and restarting blargSnes,the matter could not fix.Then you should restart the console.
2.It is lack of VSync.It means images tearing or games may run too fast.

That all,Any other question,pls feel free to let me know!
Have a nice day!
