You'll also need to install the Android NDK for compiling native code. To compile for Android, the easiest way would be to use Android Studio. You can then run make -f Makefile.vita in the project root directory to compile. To compile for the Vita, you'll need to install Vita SDK. You can then run make -f Makefile.switch in the project root directory to compile. To compile for the Switch, you'll need to install devkitPro and the switch-dev package. After that, you can simply run make in the project root directory to compile. It might also be a good idea to run pacman -Syu to ensure everything is up to date.
Once you have that set up and running, you can install all of the packages you'll need by running pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64- make.
To compile on Windows, you'll need to install MSYS2. The command will look something like apt install libwxgtk3.0-dev portaudio19-dev (Ubuntu) or brew install wxmac portaudio (macOS). You can use Homebrew on macOS, since there is no package manager provided by default. To compile on Linux or macOS, you'll need to install wxWidgets and PortAudio using your favourite package manager. This information can be difficult to find, so it's easier if you have working save files already present. If you load a new game and saving doesn't work, you'll have to manually change the save type. It has basic save type detection, but can easily be wrong. The file paths can be configured in the settings. NooDS doesn't provide high-level emulation of the BIOS yet, so you'll need to provide BIOS and firmware files dumped from your physical DS. Automatic builds are provided via GitHub Actions you can download them from the releases page. NooDS is available for Linux, macOS, Windows, Switch, Vita, and Android. If not, that's fine too like I said, I'm just having fun! Downloads It may not be a worthy competitor for the other DS emulators just yet, but I believe that I can get it there someday. It even supports GBA backwards compatability! I'm doing this for fun and as a learning experience, and also because I'm a huge fan of the DS. It's not quite there speed-wise, but it does offer most other features that you might expect from a DS emulator.
