Yes, with minor compromises. The Anbernic RG406H handles Nintendo 3DS well — most games run at full speed, and only the heaviest titles like The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D and Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate may need light frameskip or a small resolution drop. Lighter games such as Pokémon X and Super Mario 3D Land are no trouble.

| Animal Crossing: New Leaf | Full speed |
| The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D | Minor frameskip |
| Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate | Minor frameskip |
| Fire Emblem Awakening | Minor frameskip |
Why Nintendo 3DS is the test: stereoscopic 3D plus two screens; the emulator (Citra/Lime) is heavy and the demanding titles need a fast chip.
