Suggested Emulators

Citra

Citra is an open source emulator taking cues from Dolphin in terms of presentation and support. It runs many 3DS games and can even play games that support local wifi but the emulator is still WIP with many known games not working yet. It requires a very powerful computer that has a 64 bit processor to run with some games requiring higher requirements than others.
