DualScreen Emulator for Android
I have been looking for a DS emulator that runs on my galaxy s5. Nds4droid and pretendo both got around 30-23 fps and after playing the drastic demo I got around 60fps. However, I didn't have $6 to blow on an emulator so I tried this one. I get around 46-53fps on this and I think it's great for a free emulator. If you can get it going a little faster and add cheats I will most likely keep using it. It's the best free alternative to drastic on the play store recommend it to everyone with a fast enough phone
Aug/8/16 I loved this emulator because it worked perfectly fine with my droid RAZR Maxx. However I upgraded to a droid ultra and I can't access the options menu. The RAZR has a physical "options button" or what ever you would call it but the Ultra does not. This makes it impossible to turn sound on or off speed things up or chose to skip frames. This makes it functionally useless to me. I hope the devs add an on screen menu button soon or I might have to move to a new emulator.
Theres one problem why its not 5 stars its because its very laggy so please fix the lag so i wanna p,ay my tmnt game and leonardo jumps like hes ont he moon with 0gravity
When I tried to get on, but it went to a weird looking screen for two seconds and brought me into a screen full of weird things and I did not know what it was so I backed up and it took me to a black screen and about 5 seconds later, the controls popped up with it still the black screen with DS controls...plz help me with it And I will give a 5 star rating.
Yes, the app itself is very enjoyable being able to play DS games for those who no longer have one. But,there is one problem after a while of playing it would crash meaning almost every second I'd save the game and it's rather annoying.
It has potential! Really, it does. Its laggy though. I mean, I expect there to be lag, but not as much as I'm experiencing. But I can't complain too much, because it works pretty well, considering that it's free. Just needs a few tweaks, I guess
No matter what this happens as soon as I load it up. Tried to open 10 or more times, uninstall and reinstall, restarted my phone. None to any avail... I will give 5 stars once I get help with this.
App wouldnt even open and before you say oh it is just your phone and it is old and weak... im on a brand new Samsung Galaxy J7 and ive seen people using the app on s5's
I finished install it and when I'm open it there's always 'DS emulator has stopped'. my phone is lenovo vibe & I still have 20gb free space storage left also 3gb ram so I don't think the problem coming from my phone
The speed is just like other DS emulators (DraStic is an exception). I hope in your next update, you can improve the speed of your app. Also, a fast-forward button and a easier access to other features like save, load, fast forward will be much appreciated. Hope you can add this in your next update. Thanks!
The emulator works fine for me of course there's lag but it's manageable (even helps me out sometimes ;) ) I've been using it for my Zelda binge and was curious, does this emulator have a fold screen function? There's a specific puzzle which required you to actually close and reopen the DS to stamp an important image onto your map. I haven't been able to figure out if this emulator can do this. Help would be appreciated.
I installed it but when I went into it it took me to my storage, is it supposed to do that? If so, what do I do, I only installed this app so i could play the games shown in the pictures (Pokemon) I need help
I play ace attorney with this emulator and its work perfectly for me. Its a bit slow, but its not that slow that i cant playing it at all. The only thing i didnt like is the position of the touch button. Its kinda bothering me when i must touch something there. Maybe, there should be an option to move it or move it to the edge?
The games worked just fine yet even with the auto save and saving on the rom game file itself it refuses to load anything and recognize that I even have a file saved. I am forced to start all over again. If someone has advice on saving and retrieving plz help. If not I will be uninstalling.
I give this 4 stars, because it's really good and fast, but the problem is this: I can't touch and press a button at the same time, even with always touch on. Please fix this :) A game example would be Picross 3D where you have to hold key and touch at the same time.
Unfortunately ds emulator has stopped. Wont launch. Galaxy note 4, so no reason for it to not work :/. Fix it and ill update my rating and review.
I cant even get in the game, i just get in and there is a file list i press "back" and then there is nothing i pressed back again and the screen show me the control buttons but the other part is pit black so if you can fix it i'll give a 5 star
I didn't even have it for 5 minutes and I tried opening it several times. Everytime I clicked on the app it pulled up an immediate "ds emulator has stopped working" and forced me to close it.
I was able to play at first, but after, it just kept freezing my phone and I had to restart it every time. So if you can fix this, I will give more stars
Tried to play pokemon gold for DS, and it ran sooooo slow. It took 2 min to get past the main menu. If it was much faster I would use it but until then no don't get this.
I give this 4 stars, because it's really good and fast, but the problem is this: I can't touch and press a button at the same time, even with always touch on. Please fix this :) A game example would be Picross 3D where you have to hold key and touch at the same time.
But Can you teach me how to load a game game i extracted my beyblade file and still brings me to a black and white screen then brings me home help plz
There's quite a few ganes that aren't in english and requre a patch, hiwever we can't apply them with this emulator.
I wish the lagging would stop and the games would preform at normal speed and have perfect sound with no repeats in its sentences or lag, I hope you guys could fix this real soon
It keeps crashing. Fix it and you get 5 stars.
It works but games lag so much that I can't even play them, and that's surprising considering how the Nintendo DS had 4 mb of RAM!
Had to restart 4th pokemon gym and 3rd because it auto saved on Title screen (pokemon platinum) should have the option to look through previous auto saved or just saved and the game has glitches permanent glitches like how someone's poketch can disappear after receiving thw dowsing machine
Reset my phone and uninstalled app and still had roms but they weren't downloaded or working
Nice!As in nice
Love game but I have mario and luigi dream team and I downloaded it so make a 3DS Emulator
This emulator is awesome but the lag ruins almost all the fun in the game! I appreciate your efforts in making the game so please kick the lag out of our game (or emulator hehehe... )
When I downloaded it then I opened it nothing happens so I thought if you should check if theres any problem with your app.
Nevermind the reviews made before this. Yes, standard fps is below 30, meaning gameplay IS slow. That's because it IS an emulator. It emulates games, which of course relies solely on how your device performs. Everything about this app is well done, it auto-detects roms on your device, user interface is good, although the button sprites are rough but it doesnt affect your game. Overall, it's probably the best free one here. If your looking for fast and accurate gameplay, buy a better smart phone.
This emulator is great for being on a phone honestly. My one complaint it that the game does not save a save file so the ds often loses your memory. Please fix this so I can continue to play games without worry of losing my memory
And hey madness u can try download drastick but it cost dollars thats what i download when i started pokemon X Y and Pokemon Back/white 2......... And hey admin of the app make the textures more awsome or smooth k thx for making this app....... And chris did u buy drastick next time try buying drastick then youl like it like me i buy it and it move smoooooooothlyyyyyy
This stupid dumb worthless app wouldn't let me play. Took 98% of my data, and I had to keep choosing files, and said that I'm dumb. Won't let me uninstall it. Don't waste your time. Stupid app. WHOEVER LIKES IT DONT KNOW WHAT JURK THIS IS.
My guess is that this app is a VIRUS. Because everytime I download something, it always say insufficient storage at the end of the downloading. But this app got downloaded normally... I can't download anything but this trash.. :(
I downloaded this thinking I could actually play the games I wanted. At first it wasn't that bad, the graphics were awesome on my phone. I didn't enable the sound so I don't know if it needs work or not, but the main issue is it runs SO SLOW!!! I tried to play pokemon diamond and my person looked like they were walking in slow motion, that's how slow the emulator ran.
How do you guys make it work ?? I want to play pokemon black and white, but its not opening it only keeps loading then crashes out...

OK, looking at the other reviews it looks like it would be good. WOULD be good, but it won't start. Every time time I try to open the app it closes with the message 'Unfortunately DS Emulator has stopped.' IMMEDIATELY. But either way, I'll put three stars because it's probably just something wrong with my phone. Anyway, enjoy, *happy* customers!
