sm64 VS sm64_3ds

Here's the Github page.

https://github.com/Hydr8gon/sm64 You'll need to compile it yourself, but with some command line knowledge it's fairly simple.

If there's any DSi emulators for Android (I think MelonDS supports DSi), you could try this SM64 (1996) port for the DSi. There's even experimental audio support that doesn't sound half bad

I compiled it from here here recently: https://gofile.io/d/waAGeX

Built from here: https://gofile.io/d/waAGeX

This is actually a native port of the game. You have to compile it yourself. Here is the GitHub link.

"This repo contains a full decompilation of Super Mario 64 (J), (U), (E), and (SH), ported to the Nintendo DSi." – https://github.com/Hydr8gon/sm64

If you want to compile it yourself, you can go to the github page here or if you'd rather use a pre-compiled binary go here

I found this thread from about a half year ago. Not sure if there been an update. You can always go to the GitHub and build it yourself with whatever options you'd like

Sprite-based games with no or few 3D elements more than likely run fine, but I'd imagine you'd care more about playing Zelda and stuff. That's a no-go, but Super Mario 64 has a native 3DS port that works flawlessly.
