A very early experimental version of DSVita, a DS console emulator, has been released for ARM32/PSVita. Although it is capable of running some DS games, it is still in a very preliminary stage with many missing features and significant limitations.
Installation/Setup
- Grab the latest vpk from releases
- Install
libshacccg.suprx, follow this guide - It's recommend overclock your vita, by default they are unchanged
- Create the folder ux0:dsvita and put your roms there
Known limitations and issues
- No 3D support:
- Games that rely on 3D rendering (such as Pokémon Diamond ) freeze at the splash screen because 3D states are not implemented.
- No save game support:
- Currently, the emulator does not support saving game progress.
- Incomplete 2D rendering:
- 2D graphical representation is not fully implemented, causing potential visual problems in games.
- No Alpha Blending:
- Transparency effects do not work, which may affect the visual appearance of some games.
- Crash on unimplemented drawing modes:
- The emulator may crash if you try to use unsupported drawing modes.
- ARM7 HLE (High-Level Emulation) limited:
- Most games do not work properly with ARM7 HLE emulation. It is recommended to disable it if certain games do not launch correctly.
