Hello everyone!

I'm looking for an option to play 3DS games on a Steam Deck.

I'm using RetroArch for SNES and N64, but I'm lacking a core for 3DS. Guides I found online are all pointing to dead or old sources.

Any suggestions or ideas? Ideally something that integrates with RetroArch (not a must tho)?

I am not very familiar with how stuff works under Linux, so I'd need a bit of hand holding unfortunately.

Thanks in advance!

Last time I tempered with something outside of Steam on the Deck, I had my storage filled and had to wipe... ๐Ÿ˜‰
