I’ve generally stayed away from Nintendo DS and 3DS emulation on smartphones over the years. The main reason is that I generally found it to be a cramped experience. After all, most smartphone screens don’t comfortably show both DS and 3DS displays on-screen at once.

My outlook changed in a big way after using the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 for a few weeks. In fact, I may have come frustratingly and tantalizingly close to finding the perfect phone for Nintendo DS and 3DS emulation.
