How do i move the menu button (middle bottom button) using DraStic DS Emulator
I'm not sure it's possible. I had the same problem. You can only hide it completely or change position to the top. but without a gamepad you can't Access settings in-game. If it really bothers you, you can change to MelonDS which is free. (Last updated July https://github.com/rafaelvcaetano/melonDS-android/releases ) I think Drastic developer kind of abandoned the project, since he haven't updated it for 8 months now (I paid for it as well).

any one know how to emulate a dsi game
Ah, you're using the Android version of melonDS? Yeah, the latest version allows managing DSi titles. The PlayStore seems to have it updated already, or you can just grab the .apk from the GitHub page. However, you may not need it.

Which emulators support RetroAchievements??
And to add MelonDS android also supports Retroachievements
-
Is there any way to emulate DsiWare?
I haven't tried it but MelonDS can apparently run DSiWare.
-
Hardcore achievements now supported on android melonds standalone.
You can download it from here... Its in the artifacts at the bottom of the page https://github.com/rafaelvcaetano/melonDS-android/actions/runs/4864538207

RetroAchievements/NDS solution?
You're in luck! I recently did this for my Surface Duo. There's a nightly build of MelonDS you can build and install which has RA support. Works very well! https://github.com/rafaelvcaetano/melonDS-android/actions/workflows/main.yaml

Galaxy S10 - advice on compatible emulators?
Drastic https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dsemu.drastic is the best choice for DS emulation. It's paid but it genuinely is worth the money. There is also MelonDS https://github.com/rafaelvcaetano/melonDS-android but it's not quite as good but can play DSi games where Drastic cannot.

I can't use Drastic anymore thanks to scoped storage.
There's a standalone app for MelonDS.

- It should be possible to run DS games integer-scaled like this on steam deck (hybrid 3:2, or 4:1 would work too). Anyone know how to do it?

Change rom language
So I was wrong about that, RA language was indeed supposed to change the DS language with melonDS! But it wasn't working properly and I just fixed it: https://github.com/libretro/melonDS/pull/170 , so it should be fixed in the next version of the core (it might take a few hours before it's available from the online updater).

MelonDS performance went from perfect to unplayable on Android
Hmm, no commits since July, only a few since March: https://github.com/libretro/melonDS/commits/master
- change emulator language
- Looking for good DS and GBA emulators (preferably open source)

MelonDS doesn't save option configuration on exit
It's because it crashes on exit or close content. The crash is already known: https://github.com/libretro/melonDS/issues/98
-
Problems with desmume core.
No, it's been updated pretty frequently after a new dev took it over. A bunch of core options were added months ago to bring it closer to Desmume feature wise too. But there are some crashing issues after the latest 0.9.1 update that haven't been fixed yet: https://github.com/libretro/melonDS/issues/98

Core options not saving (Android)
Best workaround I found is what I did for the OP, create the .opt file on a device where it works (although for melonDS it's not that simple...), change the values and put the modified file on your other device. Clearly not ideal nor user friendly, but I can't think of anything else until the crashes on close are fixed.
