Nintendo 3DS

This page contains all the information you need to get ScummVM up and running on a Nintendo
3DS.

16.1 What you’ll need

• A Nintendo 3DS with a Homebrew Launcher or custom firmware. How to enable homebrew
is outside the scope of this documentation.

16.2 Installing ScummVM

Download the Nintendo 3DS package from the ScummVM Downloads page. Extract the archive.
There are two ways to install ScummVM: using the 3DSX format, or the CIA format.

16.2.1 Using the 3DSX format

Copy the extracted files to your SD card into the /3ds/scummvm directory.
Launch ScummVM using the Homebrew Launcher.

16.2.2 Using the CIA format

Use any CIA installation software to install the scummvm.cia file.


The CIA format requires a DSP binary dump saved on your SD card as /3ds/dspfirm.cdc. This is
not an optional step, because without this you will not have proper audio support. Documenting
this process is outside the scope of this documentation.
