Does Citra use CIA?Ĭurrently, Citra is able to install (decrypted) CIAs easily. Is CIA better than 3DS?ģDS files are nice if you don’t want to clutter your home menu with games that you’re just trying out or don’t plan on playing very much, or if you don’t feel like waiting for a CIA to install which can take a long time for larger games. You only risk getting a virus by installing third party builds with unpublished source code, or by downloading ROMs from shady sites (something not condoned by this sub). Is Citra emulator safe?Ĭitra is open-source, anyone can inspect the code themselves to verify it isn’t a virus. For citra to include ds games, it means they would have to recode an entire ds emulator to get it to work. The 3ds literally includes the old ds hardware inside in order to play ds games (this is a simplified version of the whole picture). And your middle end Android device will not be able to play them once 3DS games are emulatable.
