How To Play Nintendo (3)DS Games On PC?

[MisterIceTeaPeach]

I'd like to play 3DS games on my PC, but unfortunately I don't know how to do it since a 3DS has no output for a capture card (unless I missed something).

Is there any non complicated and expensive way to do it?

 

For any answer I thank in advance!

From what I've heard Capture Cards are hardware modified into the 3DSs which have capture cards, so that would be the main way. If there's another method, I wouldn't know.

I don't know who's doing it currently, I know one of the guys who was doing for years stopped a good while back.

Were they sold as an exclusively modified model, or had the 3DS been sent to these specialists to let them modify the console?

 

Though even if modified 3DS are offered, I really don't want to know their price.

I guess my plan has been smashed either way.

I think both have been done, though I think it was primarily you'd order for a modded 3DS rather than sending it in.

There's this link, Apparently these guys are currently doing it as well, there's also this if you're willing to go the CFW route and have the appropriate versions (RIP the one I wanted to CFW for me), just for some samples.

Thanks!

I watched a video in which I saw that apparently three guys from US, Germany and Japan build a capture card in, but I have no source if they still do it today. Though I'll check out the twitter link, even if I highly doubt that I will take this offer, furthermore since my 3DS isn't completely intact anymore. Also I have an old 3DS XL, so no way for CFW.
