Thanks to the opening of emulation in the App Store, in recent months we have seen the launch of several applications focused on giving us the opportunity to enjoy classic games, especially those related to Nintendo consoles. Thus, it was recently revealed that, although it seemed impossible at first, An emulator 3DS It is now available for iOS devices.
According to Nintendo Wire, it’s currently available leaf in the App Store. This is a Nintendo 3DS emulator, which is not free. Since it costs $4.99 dollars. Fortunately, you only need to pay once to enjoy all the benefits the app has to offer.
Also, and as I already warned, the emulator still has a few optimization issues. Some users have noted that devices such as the iPhone 13 have issues playing most 3DS titles, Therefore, a current device is required to enjoy this library.. The poor performance of games is mainly due to the App Store not allowing apps to use just-in-time (JIT) code compilation, which is often required to reduce the load on the computer’s processor while computing a code that is easy for the user to read. Since Folium cannot take advantage of JIT compilation on iOS, 3DS games require a lot of processing power when running on iOS.
In addition to 3DS games, Folium is a Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS emulator. Along with this, the application is compatible with various controls, Allows players to use accessories like Backbone and Joy-Con via Bluetooth.
As you already know, if you want to enjoy your Nintendo 3DS game library on iPhone, You need to pay $4.99 to download Folium and have a modern device to avoid serious performance issues. On a related note, the PPSSPP emulator is now available on iOS. Similarly, PlayStation Emulator comes to iPhone.
Author’s Note:
It seems that until the JIT issue is resolved, it won’t be possible to effectively run Nintendo 3DS games on an iPhone, which is unfortunate, since not everyone can afford an iPhone 15 and enjoy this great library of games.
