ZX Spectrum ZX DS emulator for 3ds
ZXDS is a Sinclair ZX Spectrum emulator for Nintendo DS and 3DS, written by Patrik Rak. It precisely emulates Spectrum 48k, 128k, + 2 / + 2A / + 3, and Pentagon, and supports SNA / Z80 / SZX snapshots, TAP / TZX / PZX files, TRD / SCL / DSK files and files RZX review.
It has an ability to download all these files online via WiFi, peer-to-peer WiFi multiplayer or Kempston mouse emulation. It is available completely free of charge.
3DS users:
Unzip the downloaded archive, remove the SD card from your computer, insert it into your computer, and copy only the entire ZXDS directory (not just its contents, but the directory itself) to the root of the SD card. Make sure that even empty subdirectories are copied correctly (in particular, make sure that the / ZXDS / Saves directory is created, otherwise the save locations will not be saved permanently to your card). Then copy the ZXDS.3dsx to the / 3ds directory on your SD card (or anywhere you launch homebrew applications).
DS users:
Unzip the downloaded archive and copy only the full ZXDS directory (not just its contents, but the directory itself) to the root of any device you use to run homebrew on your DS. Make sure that even empty subdirectories are copied correctly (in particular, make sure that the / ZXDS / Saves directory is created, otherwise the save locations will not be saved permanently to your card). If you wish, you can then move the ZXDS.nds elsewhere on the map, such as at the root itself, to make it more accessible.
The binary ZXDS.nds provided is mainly intended for cards based on Slot-1 (DS slot). Most of these cards now support the automatic DLDI patch, so you probably won't have to worry about that at all.
