Stay mad, there's a reason why it's only for New 3DS. | ||

Trust me, I'm a doctor. Group: Advanced Members Posts: 6,186 Member No.: 1,277 Joined: Feb 14th 2004 Location: Bay City, MI | Wait.. So, the old 3DS can run a demanding game like Smash Bros, but it can't play SNES games? I was planning on upgrading soon to a New 3DS anyways, but still... That's some horse crap. |

It's not really a surprise to me since they're probably using software to emulate an SNES (thus needing better hardware). I remember back when Bleem! was an emulator for PC to play PS1 games back in the day, you needed to have a pretty decent computer to be able to play PS1 games decently.
Not sure who Jontron is, I am assuming some sort of YouTube personality who pronounces SNES as a word rather than as an acronym. It just bugs the hell out of me when people pronounce it as Se-nes when SNES is an acronym for Super Nintendo Entertainment System. Mind you, I might be a hypocrite since I pronounce the old NES emulator Nesticle as Nest-icle. This post has been edited by BOZZ on Apr 17 2016, 04:55 PM | ||||

You seem to have a basic misunderstanding of how emulation works. Allow me to edumacate you. http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2011/08/accu...-snes-emulator/ | ||
