melonDS Emulator Setup Tutorial 2023 - Nintendo DS on Windows PC!

Hey y'all here's another emulation tutorial video. This one is about the melonDS emulator, which I absolutely adore. It truly feels like a labor of love. It also runs DS games flawlessly! Get to playing Pokemon or Mario 64

For anyone that is having issues that you cannot save state or that your settings in general do not save, when you launch melonDS (for the first time i believe) run it as administator and it will create an .ini file where your settings will be saved for the future.

I want to Thank You so much! I was thinking of getting the cartridges because things seemed complicated but your video was so easy to follow (granted, it did take me 40 minutes because I was a little confused at some point but I'm way past that). Currently downloading my favorite games, I'm so glad to have a piece of my childhood back

As of version 0.9.4, BIOS and firmware files are not required for DS mode.

[jack-the-threader]

Oh this fixed my problem!!!! I was originally under the impression bios was optional, thank you so much

I’m currently downloading every ds game I can find online, I’ve found some collections but they’re not quite complete, so I’m going to add my own collection online. If you’re wondering, I’m at about 3.5Tb of NDS games so far.

When I click the link in the description to download the BIOS & Firmware files, it's not downloading a zip file it's downloading the NDS Firmware & BIOs
.7z file and I can't find the two bios files and firnware files anymore, am I doing something wrong?
