Quick Getting Started Guide

When you start the emulator for the first time, you probably just want to play a certain game. You can do this by going to 'File' in the menu, and selecting 'Open Rom'. This will open up a n explorer window, within which you can browse to the rom (nds file) that you wish to play. Once the game has finished loading (and this should only take a few seconds at most), your game will automatically start running.

Menu Layout

The rest of this manual will be spend on explaining all the other options in the menu.


File Menu

File | Open Rom

This option is for loading games. A game is typically called a rom file. Just use the explorer window to browse to the file, and click on open. The game should just load and start. The desmume windows port is also able to load some compressed formats, like zip, rar, and 7-zip. Just as long as there is a valid game (rom) file in the compressed archive ending with an .nds extension, it should load fine.
