Rate my setup/suggestions?
I recommend modding the 3DS. Only because it adds so much features that the 3DS doesn't have now. On top of that, backing up the ROMs for your cartridges is great for long trips where you really don't want to bring every game you own, or just when you can't be bothered.

I must know, how do you emulate fire emblem on a windows laptop?
Which game do you want to emulate? If you're talking about fe7 (localized as just Fire Emblem in the west), you're gonna need a ROM which I can't link here but I can PM to you if you need it, and an emulator. I recommend Mgba (https://mgba.io/) for GBA games.

If you had to use the 4.5 navis to create a team, who would you choose?
Here's the thread for the Real Battle Network Gameplay patch, here's the English translation patch, and here's the emulator I recommend where you can just slot in the Navi of your choice to unlock them immediately. The ROM you'll have to scare up for yourself, but I'm sure you can handle it.
