Wired vs Wireless 3DS Streaming

Post by Bloxx » Fri Feb 20, 2026 12:15 am

I had another question that felt good for its own topic. I currently have a 3DS system set up to stream wirelessly (specifically a New 2DS XL) and wanted to know how that compares to wired streaming.

It most works wirelessly, but the framerate can feel a bit choppy when playing with actual 3DS titles, and even retro ones. I wanted to verify if there was a significant visual improvement going wired.

Oh wow, wild to see my video in the wild. I've been meaning to make an updated version that uses NTR-HR, as that does fix some issues I showcased in that video. Also, I recorded everything at a somewhat low bitrate, which I would like to correct. I still personally recommend a wired capture card due to the fact it doesn't need a network connection, but that's ultimately up to your preferences
