Requirements to Install 3ds Emulator

Requirements to Install 3ds Emulator:

Before installing, you need to know whether your computer has a 64-bit or 32-bit operating system. Citra does not run on 32-bit ones.

To check the OS version of your system:

  1. RIght click on the ‘This Computer’ (for Windows 10) or the ‘My Computer’ icon on your desktop. 
  2. Now click on properties in the drop-down list.
  3. In the window that opens, look for the ‘System type’ field.
  4. Here it will be specified if your computer is a 64-bit or 32-bit operating system.

  1. Go to the official Citra download page here. 
  2. The web page will automatically detect your Operating system and provide you with a download link
  3. .The rest of the process is pretty straightforward. Citra has an updater that lets you easily install, update and manage Citra.

How to play 3DS Games in Citra Emulator?

Before deciding on all the way and play a game in Citra, check this page for compatibility. Once you have confirmed that your game plays satisfactorily, follow these steps:

Before you start off on your gaming journey, here’s a couple of optimizations so it runs better:

  1. When you download Citra, you get a compressed archive (a WinRAR file). 
  2. Extract it to your desired location.
  3. Inside the folder, you will find two applications, namely Citra and Citra-qt.
  4. Either of these might start the emulator.Once the emulator is up and running, go to emulation in the top of the window and click on configure.
  5. In the new window that pops up, do the following:
  • Under the general tab, make sure the ‘Enable CPU Jit’ option is checked.
  • Now go to the graphics tab and make sure all the checkboxes are checked.
  • You can vary the resolution displayed in this tab too, although this changes according to your computer. So experiment!

After all that, you need to download the actual game file to be able to play it. Before you go off to ask uncle Google where you can do that, make sure you download game files with the extension .3DS at the end of the file name. Citra runs only .3DS files.

Once the game has been downloaded, go to the emulator, file, load file and find the game on your computer. Open the game and voila, you are losing yourself in a great 3DS game.

There is one important thing to keep in mind. We don’t condone piracy here. It’s important that you only use games you own for Switch with Yuzu. In order for them to work, you need to extract decryption keys. The Yuzu Github page has a handy step-by-step guide on how to do this. Before reading this guide, you might want to have a  look at that first .  You’ll need the title.keys  and  prod.keys for whichever game it is that you’re going to play. Before we get into the guide, let me give you a quick look at my hardware platform. While Yuzu is playable on many systems, you should note that it is still a  very  intensive program. If you’re running anything less than a dedicated modern gaming rig, now’s a good time to turn back. You just won’t get playable framerates. Our Test Platform CPU: Ryzen 1600, overclocked to 3.6
