To those who said it was frames per minute. Here you have it. Still needs a bit more of optimisations but already works kinda well

Hello, you may remember me from my previous post. I had modded citra and pokemon omega ruby to run on the r36s, and it was pretty bad. People wanted me to share the source so they could do it as well. Unfortunately it seemed that my mod wasn't exactly compatible with anything other than ORAS, so I turned it into a fork of Zakuro. That actually made things perform a lot better, I have ORAS running at 60fps in some places! But now that all of the optimizations I made for ORAS have blanket compatibility, I was able to try more games, and unfortunately they're not quite so easy to run, but they're super playable after the int on and off certain settings.

With the issues that comes with blanket changes to cpu, GPU, and memory operations and pipelines, I made each of my changes toggleable, and I've found most games improve the more you experiment, and so far I've only gotten 4 games to run, Mario kart 7, legend of Zelda a link between worlds, and animal crossing new leaf. But that's only because it takes hours to troubleshoot each game (which is why anyone can add configurations to the GitHub to save the next person some time)

Now I will preface this by saying I wasn't going to release this due to my own concerns of how much I used AI for this project, originally it had done most of my troubleshooting and wrote at least a third of my code. To get this to run on multiple games I had to rely on it a bit more, especially when translating the existing work into the new version that is a fork of zakuro. And in setting up the toggles. That being said it's fully open source and I hope you guys go crazy with it

So without further preamble, behold Pocket native, the open source 3ds to r36s conversion tool!

https://github.com/whovian64/pocket-native

You must supply your own games, and the conversion must happen on a PC then the player must be sent to your r36, as well as the converted rom

Ps. I was playing those games one handed, I swear I'm better at them than what is implied by the video 😅

Testei o Farming simulater 14, gostei bastante apesar de ter tido que trocar de sistema (coloquei o DarkosRE)

Hi everyone!

as you’ve seen from u/djparent 's post,mcpelauncher has been added to dArkOsen!

And with that, I’ve brought some news:

-The feature to import your own skins directly into the game has been added; simply place a compatible skin into the "Import Skins" folder, enter the game, and go to the "Import Skin" option. A window resembling a nether portal will appear, from which you can select your skins.

-You can now update the port directly from the menu!

I got the idea from u/djparent, who would otherwise have to re-enter the updated port every time DArkOsen gets an update.

It’s more convenient for everyone, so you don’t have to go to GitHub for every update.

Then I fixed some bugs:

-architecture detection on an Os like MuOs

-screen upside down on some consoles.

-added compatibility with more recent versions

here is the link:

Changing the subject, I’ve started working on a port of Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3; thanks to the code that has been decompiled, i m attempting to bring one of my all-time favorite games to these consoles.

It’s still under development, but I’ve managed to launch the game and get into a match. The frame rate is still low, but im trying to optimize it as much as possible.

There’s still quite a bit of work to do, but I hope to release it as soon as possible!

Asphalt 7 Heat version 1.1.2h (Android), provide your own legal copy of the game (based on latest version released), tested on R36S and RG351P.

I used opus 5.5 to make a steam grid database scraper for the r36s, requires network connection but it’s super easy to run lmk if anyone would be interested in SH File i use it for ports only. (Requires API from steamgriddb) super easy to use.

I spent a few days trying to find this port... Well, I found it.

Currently porting the dungeon clawler game and i got around the touch by adding a custom mouse pointer which can be simulate the touch behavior. Also, mapped the analog keys to move the clawler. Currently in early stage test, soon I will update the port once I am ready.

thanks

Testei e funcionou, não é perfeito mas está jogável

Hi all, I havent been using my r36s for a few months, but tend to keep an eye on this sub. It seems like there's been a LOT of big advancements and I wanted to know

- what is the best OS right now?

- what are some good new ports? I swear I've seen some cool ones popping up here lately

Happy to do some sifting through old posts if this is annoying, but thought I'd ask anyway.

i just got one of the clones just for the lulz and i think i found a new variant probably, not sure if its already been posted or not but it's so much clone even the cpu got rebadged, the rockchip is not what it is, it's an all winner or whatever from me digging around, just an heads up

So I ordered a peculiar red R36S device on a local online storefront, and what arrived was a device which, by the sticker pad keeping the battery in place, I already suspected was one of those GB350 clones.

When I opened it though, I saw a serial number which, at least by my checking on both Reddit and the Handhelds Wiki, is as of yet undocumented: it says R36S-v3.0(2026.07.20). Does anyone else have a device with this serial?

I already backed up an image of the SD card, and repaired the partition table using TestDisk (thanks to the video by Sjsltech).

I'm of course already filing this for returns. I think it only has 256 MB of RAM?

Hello there

I'm looking to upgrade from the r36s but I am overwhelmed with options. I mostly want built in WiFi for multiplayer with my girlfriend and Bluetooth for my ear buds. I'm not married to the vertical layout. The clicky clacky r36 buttons are annoying me and that's my main gripe. I am, however, absolutely wracked with analysis paralysis. Similar performance is fine, there is a lot of good things on portmaster that I would be sad to lose lm

Any recommendation. Help me reddit, you're my only hope.

EDIT: I'm just going to keep track of the recommendations here for future reddit wanders and Google searches.

Hi, bought a cheap R36S on amazon and I want to have access to the SDcard files. My pc just want to format the sdcard when I insert it. I can back up it just fine with software but how do I move the roms out of there?

How do I install arkos4clones to a new sd card and partition that SD card as well for the games? As I'm planning to only keep a single SD card . Please help

My wifi on my device shows connected BUT, never actually allows me to do anything. is there something I'm doing wrong here? on a good sd card. darkosen(09302026)

Hola, chicos estoy pesando en compra alguno de estos medelos. No se cual conviene.

Experimental Android port: https://github.com/Player124413/Looking-Glass-android-edition

Requires game assets from remastered PC version (2011).

I have a new reliable card running DarkOS all fine.

But I've got the stock card just sat there doing nothing. Any reason why I can't use it just for movies? When it dies, that's fine I've got backups.

Any reason why swapping my game SD card and my movie SD card around could cause problems?

Kann mir jemand helfen? Der Akku meines Gerätes klebt irgendwie fest so das ich nicht feststellen kann um was es sich wirklich handelt! Ob Klon oder echt
