A quick update has been released for Red Viper, the Virtual Boy emulator for 
Nintendo 3DS, an evolution of mrdanielps‘r 3Ddragon project, which in turn is based on 
Reality Boy and Red Dragon.

This new version fixes several issues and introduces improvements aimed at optimizing the gaming experience. Bugs have been fixed that caused the home screen in Virtual League Baseball 2 to advance immediately , enemies to disappear in Red Alarm , and the score to malfunction in Space Invaders .

Also improved the graphical behavior when exiting the pause menu in Golf and fixed some visual glitches when leveling up in Jack Bros.

The update also fixes a crash that occurred with the Abarth wireframe demo , a ROM loader crash in single-file folders, and performance losses introduced with version 1.1.0.

Finally, the anti-flicker feature has been disabled during software rendering, as it was unnecessary in these cases and caused visual problems.

Characteristics

  • All officially licensed games are playable at full speed, even on Old 3DS.
  • 3D support.
  • Support for game saves and savestates.
  • The 3DS display runs at 50Hz, like the Virtual Boy.
  • Fully customizable button mapping, including New 3DS and Circle Pad Pro controls.
  • Right virtual directional keys or A/B buttons on the touch screen.
  • Configurable color palettes.

Usage

  • Download the Red Viper emulator , which comes as a 3DSX file (which can be loaded via the Homebrew Launcher) or as a CIA file (which can be installed in the main menu via FBI).
  • ROMs can be placed anywhere on the SD card. The emulator will automatically remember the location of the last ROM loaded.
