3DS Emulator - Better Than the Real Thing

Emulators are used by a ton of people despite the fact that they are in somewhat of a legal gray area (and are blatantly illegal in some cases) due to the fact that they allow gamers to play console games on their computer. This especially applies to older consoles that are now obsolete such as the NES. However now there are 3DS emulators available and the 3DS is currently a popular handheld console still in production.

The Benefits of a 3DS Emulator

As with any emulator having a 3DS emulator allows you to amass a library of games quickly and without cost. This is one of the reasons it can be considered a copyright violation and could be illegal to download the ROMS (games) in many cases. That being said, intervention by Nintendo and/or the FBI is rare.

Another major benefit is the fact that with the 3DS emulator you're able to store all of your games digitally and don't have to worry about the physical copies of the game. In a way this is very similar to how MP3 players quickly replaced CDs this past decade. Owning digital copies of games is in many ways much more convenient than owning the retail versions.

The Drawbacks of a 3DS Emulator

As with all emulators there are typically some drawbacks to using one. With a emulateur 3ds you may find that playing with a mouse and keyboard isn't as easy as using an actual 3DS game system. Installing a controller is an option in some cases but the responsiveness isn't always up to par.

Another drawback is the fact that some emulators aren't quite as good as others and may have trouble playing certain games. In any event you're computer's specs will have to be up to par in order to run the games well.
