    Hi friends! We were out for the last 2 hours and apparently the world has now fully caught ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ˜ฌ For the record, the recent legal shenanigans do not affect our 3DS emulator. We'll continue to monitor the situation, but for now... It's time to shine?

    Finally, the last piece for system version 9.0.0 is in place: All apps are now detected and shown in the HOME Menu as expected ๐Ÿฅณ

    A screenshot of the HOME Menu emulated in a development version of Mikage. The gamecard slot shows a heavily glitched game icon. The game title (normally just a couple of words across 1-2 lines of text) spans 6 lines and is mostly boxed question mark characters interspersed with seemingly random unicode characters. Somewhere in the middle of this title block, there is the phrase "Homebrew".

    The 3DS eShop is closing down on March 27, but there's a way to save it! Today, we're releasing saveShop, a tool for creating your own personal eShop archive ๐Ÿ™Œ

    Our 3DS emulator now runs on macOS ๐Ÿฅณ Watch this, the title bar APIs are so cool! (tap to enhance since Twitter cuts off the top!)
    Screenshot of our 3DS emulator running on macOS. It shows the first-time setup dialog.
    Screenshot of the emulator's game list window. The title bar embeds a search function, a mode selector, and a "Launch HOME Menu" button. This is typical for macOS applications and gives the application a modern look.
    The search field dynamically expands when selected. The mode selector makes room by morphing into a combo box.

    Turning on your virtual 3DS for the first time ๐Ÿ™Œ
    Running Mikage on a freshly created virtual 3DS. Logos are displayed just like on a real 3DS that you just bought!
    Image of the testing screen for the 3D effect.
    Configuring your profile user name in Mikage. Top screen is tinted blue due to a color conversion bug.
    Initial system setup complete! Press HOME button to switch to the Home Menu.

    No, the new App Store policies won't get us emulators on iOS. Sadly this has been grossly misreported by basically everyone. The platform continues to be as unattractive for community emulators as ever. ๐Ÿงต

    The best way to compliment an emulator ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ
    Two tweets in reply to a screenshot taken in a 3DS emulator. The first tweet says "I don't see a difference?". In the second tweet, the author realizes "oh. it's an emulator".
    A tweet in reply to a screenshot taken in a 3DS emulator. The tweet says "is that a 3ds emulator or a capture card?"
    A tweet in reply to a screenshot taken in a 3DS emulator. The tweet says "The way I didn't even process this was an emulator", followed by two ๐Ÿ’€ emojis.
