Guide_3DS VS snes9x_3ds

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.

Homebrew your 3ds and put cfw on it (if you want to have an easy time rng abusing) Download Pcalc Download PKSM Inject the Zeraora event into your savefile with PKSM Download 3dsrngtool on your PC Watch the tutorial from Im a Blisy about wondercard rng

have you been following 3ds.hacks.guide?

You can homebrew your 3DS, it's surprisingly easy.

Restart the process following 3ds.hacks.guide instead

Snes9X for 3DS by bubble2k16 is an option.

Yeah, people got it to work without fitting it in

Using a different emulator is definitely an option. I use SNES9x for romhacks/randomizers because they seem to not work half the time when injected. Not every build works for super metroid link to the past randomizer, but I can confirm this one does (direct link to the zip)

https://github.com/bubble2k16/snes9x_3ds this is the one I use :)

It can be done. Have you already followed the 3ds hacking guide to install Luma3ds? If so, I believe you can simply just use a homebrew emulator for Mother 1 and 2 (Virtuanes and Snes9x3ds). You can also use NSUI to essentially install them as games to the home screen. Ask r/3dshacks if you need help or have any questions.
