Therefore, it has a lot of technical options that appear intimidating for new and inexperienced users. It is important to note that DeSmuME was originally developed both as an emulator and an open-source testing platform for programmers and developers looking to test their converted DS ROMs. Also, you can just as easily load your instant saves. It saves the state of the game at that exact point. Instead of having to manually look for save spots in-game, you can just press Shift+F1 to F10 to activate any of the autosave slots.
Additionally, this emulator has the ability to improve graphics through its High Resolution 3D Renderer feature.Īnother capability that these emulators have over the original handheld consoles is the autosave feature. An advantage of this emulator is that you can play on larger screens–much larger than the Nintendo DS’ two 2.4-inch by 1.8-inch screens. In terms of graphics, you can definitely enjoy your DS games in better quality thanthe you would if you bought the actual handheld console. However, if you’re only planning to use it for personal use and have no plans to make a profit off of it or live stream your games, you should be fine. While DeSmuME and its games are free, it is important to note that all of these are made by fans across the world and are actually illegal–as they are unofficial reproductions of Nintendo DS and its games.
