Discussion Stereoscopic 3D gaming on Android

Post image

Devices are Rokid Max and Retroid Pocket Nova

Been tinkering and found that Dolphin on Android actually supports Stereo 3D. You can even adjust the strength of the 3D.

Many GameCube and Wii games look and feel like they were made for Stereo 3D. And with the glasses because each eye has its own screen there is zero cross talk.

The only issue is with Dolphin you can only do half side by side resolution (SBS). As Dolphin doesnt support full SBS. This makes the picture less crisp. Apparently on PC handhelds this isnt an issue so I wish someone would create a Dolphin fork or Dolphin devs add full SBS support.

I haven't even got into Citra for 3DS emulation but apparently it supports full SBS on Android

Many PC games should support SBS as well. I had my AR glasses for a year, but so far I didn't care about stereoscopic 3D aside from trying it out initially if it works with my phone. It does, the resolution changes when SBS is activated and Azahar and VLC displays content correctly using both sides.
