I'm really starting to believe you're having a hard time understanding what I'm saying.

You mean the 3D screen on the 3DS? That actually is controlled by a completely separate part of the console. It has no impact with the ability of the 3DS to play any game. None of the SNES games on the Virtual Console for the 3DS have any type of 3D enhancements. They all run in 2D regardless of how you have your screen set.

As for SNES9X. It is being updated regularly. I provided you a list of game compatibility that actually shows the frame rate for the games as they run on the base 3DS using SNES9X. Over 85% them are emulated perfectly. That includes 60 fps.

And again, I'm not suggesting that IF it would require additonal work to get the SNES emulator to work on the base 3DS they should do that today. But you actually have no grounds claim that Nintendo's current SNES emulator for the New 3DS would not run on the base 3DS. It highly depends on how the emulator is programmed. It's entirely possible would run perfectly well on the base 3DS as is, and you would have to have intimate knowledge on how Nintendo's SNES emulator on the 3DS works to claim otherwise. You simply cannot know the things you are claiming as fact.

Over 85% mean not all and New 3ds take at least 2 year to Nintendo put SNES VC on it. I don't said fact but it is not wise to spend too much time to figure out and optimize SNES VC on 3DS while on New 3DS it is much simple and faster, they also need to advertise New 3DS ability so it is good business choice. Also, some games won't ever happen if Nintendo only have 3ds like Minecraft this year, look at Hyrule Warriors Legend 3ds vs New 3ds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2J98CvVau4

One question: Do you think psp can run emulator all GBA games? Yes or no?

Over 85% is not all, you're right. So tell me what kind of game compatibility the Nintendo developed Emulator for the N3DS has? Well it plays 100% of the games on the Virtual Console (as does the SNES 9X emulator), and you have no idea if it plays any of the other ones. So for all you know, the official N3DS has just as poor a compatibility rating.  You are assuming it plays every SNES game perfectly when you really have no idea.

Do you know Nintendo made its own emulator for the SNES Classic? Do you know the SNES Classic only plays about 80% of SNES games? Why do you think the N3DS emultor, which was developed earlier, is better than the one on the SNES classic?

Also, just because something was released two years after a console was released doesn't mean they were working on it for two years. They could have been working on it for two months for all we know. You have no idea how long it took Nintendo do develop that emulator, so please stop assuming.

And now you're going on another tangent as if I argued that the New 3DS shouldn't exist or something? This is completely nonsensical.

And what does the PSP have to do with anything? The PSP's homebrew emulator performance for GBA games has nothing to do with the 3DS's ability to emulate Super Nintendo games on a Nintendo developed emulator.
