Which Pokémon Games Can You Play on the R36S?

Here are some of the Pokémon games you can play on the R36S, depending on the console emulator you're using:

1. Game Boy / Game Boy Color (GB/GBC)

  • Pokémon Red / Blue / Yellow
  • Pokémon Gold / Silver / Crystal
  • Pokémon Pinball

2. Game Boy Advance (GBA)

How to Play Pokémon on R36S:

  1. Obtain the ROMs: You'll need to legally download the Pokémon ROMs from a trusted source.
  2. Install an Emulator: Most R36S devices come preloaded with emulators for the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, GBA, and DS, but you can also manually install an emulator for the 3DS if it's not included (though 3DS emulation is more demanding).
  3. Load the ROMs: After obtaining the ROMs, you can load them onto your device via internal storage or SD card and run them through the emulator of your choice.

Performance Considerations:

  • Game Boy / GBA / NDS games: These games run smoothly without any issues on the R36S, as the hardware is more than capable of emulating these consoles.
  • 3DS Games: The R36S can run some 3DS games, but you might need to tweak the settings for smoother performance. The more advanced the game, the harder it may be to run perfectly.

Conclusion:

The R36S is an excellent handheld for playing Pokémon games, offering the ability to emulate multiple retro consoles. Whether you're into the classic Game Boy games, the later GBA entries, or even some Nintendo DS and 3DS titles, the R36S can handle them with ease.
