Can the Bittboy / Miyoo / Wolsen Pocket Go S30 Run Nintendo DS?

Compiled & reviewed by Urs von Gunten, HandheldWiki editorial · How we rate ·

Partly. The Bittboy / Miyoo / Wolsen Pocket Go S30 can run Nintendo DS, but expect compromises. Lighter games like New Super Mario Bros. and Pokémon Platinum are playable, while demanding titles such as The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass and Nintendogs will struggle with slowdown. Workable for a patient player, not a flawless experience.

Why Nintendo DS is the test: two screens and a touch panel — the challenge is the dual-screen layout and 3D, not raw power.
