citra VS Skyline

Another wonderful option is to play Nintendo 3DS games with the Citra emulator. They look incredible. I would go so far as to say that if you're a fan of the console then this is the best way to experience its games, even better than on the original hardware. Again use 3840x1200 @ 60 Hz and full SBS. In Emulation -> Configure... -> Graphics -> Stereoscopy set it to "Side by Side". Also increase the renderer internal resolution to as high as your PC can handle (I used "5x Native"). We'll also have to set the display layout for our resolution and aspect ratio. Unfortunately, this has to be done manually. Browse to %APPDATA%\Citra\config and edit qt-config.ini with this in the [display] section:

After some more research, I discovered that the Citra devs discovered and fixed this issue by allowing the Back button to open the in-emulation menu. This fix was added on Jan 22 2023. When I checked the version of Citra available on the Google Play Store on my phone, it was a very old version from May 2021, which is strange because viewing the same Play Store page on my computer shows it was updated in April 2023... maybe your Play Store version is also outdated? If so, the only solution I can think of would be to install the apk from the Citra Nightly github repo.

There have been several recent changes merged for custom textures. Here is one of the pull requests for example: https://github.com/citra-emu/citra/pull/6452. The slow loading you're talking about was only an issue for me if preload custom textures was enabled.

There has been a new version posted today and doesn't seem to have the crashing issues of the older version https://github.com/citra-emu/citra/actions/runs/4933706946

I just followed the build-it-yourself instructions here https://github.com/citra-emu/citra/wiki/Building-for-macOS and it was easy-peasy.. tried a game and it works great

Just used the instructions here https://github.com/citra-emu/citra/wiki/Building-for-macOS to build it myself. I can open it but I also get the error as soon as I try to run anything.. that my system doesn't support OpenGL. Looked in the settings but there isn't any way yet to switch to Vulkan. I think Vulkan support is coming very soon but hasn't landed yet.

That's weird, since it was implemented in November 2022 (I only know this because I was looking it up yesterday for another use case)

If you want to play on PC or Android, go to https://citra-emu.org and download and install the emulator. Then go to https://www.ziperto.com/yo-kai-watch-3-english/ to download the game and launch it in Citra to play.

I knew there was at least one Switch emulator for Android because it made headlines recently, but a few seconds on Google gave me 3 separate emulators for Android : Yuzu, Egg NS and Skyline

Skyline emulator for Android: https://skyline-emu.one/

If you have Android, you would use Skyline.

Here is the exact process

You can download the emulator on their website

You can always find the latest signed apk release on https://download.skyline-emu.one/ , and you can also access builds at https://github.com/skyline-emu/skyline/actions when logged in to a github account. Another bit of confusion you mightve had, We go by Build #'s, rather than App Version, the app has been on version 0.0.3 for a year.
