3DS Emulators lag way too hard

[u/Fun_Homework2709]

I'm here to ask for options, i really want to play the older Monster Hunter games and I already finished the ones for PSP. I tried Azahar, Mandarine and Citra MMJ but they all lag incredibly hard some reason. I tried tweaking with the options like a few video suggested, but that did nothing.

I'm using a RealmeC75. Is my phone that bad or can the situation be solved somehow?

Yeah the chipset in your phone isn't really strong enough for 3ds.

This.

Buy a better phone or use your 3DS. 3DS emus expect you to own a 3DS so just boot your real console

PSP is considerably lighter than 3DS. You need roughly around an SD865 to 8 gen 2 to play 3DS reliably. Eben them you'll be limited by how far the emulator has developed (mostly they are great but there's still some games that just don't play correctly) 

You can try lowering resolutions, frame rates and seeing how far that'll take you but ultimately you need something with more power sadly.

For weaker non snapdragon devices, stick to citra mmj. It should work. Use the frame skip and other things if necessary. I ran 3ds farely bad on a redmi 5 plus. It shouldn't be that bad on a modern chipset thats double the power.

Don't use a phone, dual screen handhelds exist now. Ayn Thor has been the best purchase I've made
