desmume VS rpcs3

citra is for 3ds games. while it should be compatible with ds games since the physical consoles are, this isn't true of the emulators. http://desmume.org/ has what you need.

Did you get it from the project's GitHub or official website? The emulator is known, so unless you got it from an unknown source, it should be fine. If you're still worried, you can run a virus scan at any time. If you want to ask more about it, ask in more relevant subreddits, i.e. r/EmulationOnPC.

Are you using the latest stable build, 0.9.13? You can also try melonDS instead.

You should probably emulate the games, your 3DS is unlikely to be found Here is an Emulator r/roms is a good resource for ROMs

DesMuMe (DS emulator for Mac and Windows): DesMuMe Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky ROM: PMD:EoS

RetroArch - pcsxr - stella - nestopia - DeSmuME - OpenEmu

The emulator: https://rpcs3.net/ The rom: https://vimm.net/vault/24833 I forget if you need anything else but finding a video on YouTube is not very hard for rpcs3, a bit complicated, sorry I can't remember how to do it all, it's been a while.

What you'll need: A PC with a decent CPU (RPCS3 tierlist of CPUs), a legally obtained copy of Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time (eBay link for physical; getting your own digital copies of PS3 games is a bit more complex and requires jailbreaking your PS3, I recommend MrMario2011's channel for any PS3 jailbreaking you need to do... or Google), and a PS3 emulator for PC (RPCS3 is the only one you should look at). Note that you can also run RPCS3 on Linux and macOS but I have no experience with that so any system requirements will have to be found by you). You also need a DualShock 4 (PlayStation Store link), a DualSense (PlayStation Store link), or another controller that has gyro functionality. There are other methods for bypassing gyro, such as emulating gyro (GitHub link for DualShock 4 emulator) or modifying your saves to skip past mandatory gyro sections of the game (PasteBin link for a tutorial). Also check out the RPCS3 wiki page for the game for any potential fixes.

RPCS3 (PlayStation 3) Emulator: https://rpcs3.net/

it's the same issue as here: https://github.com/RPCS3/rpcs3/issues/13031

Finally, there is a sizeable catalog of PlayStation 3 games that support 3D, which you can output in SBS using the RPCS3 emulator. Their resolution is quite low but the stereo effect can still be impressive. Note that normally only half SBS is supported, but some games might have a community patch for widescreen resolutions, in which case full SBS might be possible. Make sure to set Configuration -> GPU -> 3D to "Side-by-side" before starting a game. This will tell the game that you are connected to a 3D display, in which case it would have an in-game option to enable stereoscopic 3D. You might also need to set the aspect ratio to 4:3. I can confirm that Prince of Persia Trilogy 3D works nicely. Note that you need a fairly beefy gaming rig to emulate PlayStation 3 well!
