DSi CFW Megathread
TwilightMenu++ is an application for the DS&DSLite (via the r4 flashcart) or the DSi/3DS (via CFW). When opened, it looks and functions like the DSi menu. It allows you to access and play Roms via a prettier interface. This should let you run NDS, NES, and SNES games without any additional plugins.

Creating the Ultimate Pokémon Machine, and more! (v2.0)
Alternatively, you can use TwilightMenu++, which is an application for the DS&DSLite (via the r4 flashcart) or the DSi/3DS (via CFW). When opened, it looks and functions like the DSi menu. It allows you to access and play Roms via a prettier interface. However, I don’t like using it on the 3DS. If yours is broken, try downloading it again from the Universal Updater app or try this.

Now that the 3DS shop is closed, is there a solution using Sky3DS to access Poke Transporter?
A side note: If you want to transport Pokemon from gen 5 or before and your gen 5 game is on an R4 or similar DS flashcart (or is a fake/reproduction cart from eBay), that won't work directly since Transporter only sees actual retail cartridges. There is a workaround though, you can move your ROM and sav into TwilightMenu++ on the CFW console, which plays DS games from the console's SD card. Then you can use Dream Radar Cart Redirect, which makes Dream Radar and Transporter both read sav files off the console SD instead of retail cartridges in the slot.

Why does twilight menu freeze only when playing pokemon black 2?
Also be sure to update to the latest Luma firmware as well as the latest version of TwiLight if you aren't already using them.

3DS XL flash cart recommendations?
don't use 3DS flashcarts(gateway, sky3DS), you will brick your console, install CFW( https://3ds.hacks.guide/ ) and TWiLight Menu ++ (https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/TWiLightMenu/releases)

Does GBA on 3DS just suck?
For me, I found Open AGB Firm to be the best method for playing GBA games on 3DS for now. It's still an early work, but already it has high compatibility although not completely perfect yet.

R4 3ds playing gba?
It would be better to install custom firmware (3ds.hacks.guide) and use open_agb_firm which is much better than gbarunner2, as far as I know it has perfect game compatibility

Where to get old pokemon games?
Gen 3 (GameBoy Advance games) can be played natively by using open_agb_firm if you have the .gba file (the ROM) for them.

Documentation of the .cia file format and 3DS injection
I'm not sure if there's an existing open-source tool for creating CIA files of GBA games. A lot of focus has moved to open_agb_firm, which allows running GBA ROMs directly using the native hardware support, and has many advantages over the official implementation.

Best emulators for NES, SNES, Gameboy/Color and GBA for old 3DS?
I can second the suggestions of YourPaperPal. I use bubble2k16's VirtuaNES and Snes9x for NES and SNES, GameYob for GB(C), and open_agb_firm for GBA (although the latter is not an emulator).

How can I fix this? Pls help (see here for more information about this ↓)
Or even better, install CFW and use open_agb_firm or VC Injects instead, they work much better since they can use the 3DS's native GBA hardware.

What is the best DS Flash card for DS+GBA compatibility?
Or if you're on DSi/3DS just install CFW (dsi.cfw.guide/3ds.hacks.guide) and use GBARunner2 from CFW (DSi) or open_agb_firm/VC Injects/mGBA (n3DS only) on 3DS.
What are some alternatives?
