Alright, I got my hands on 3DS Alpha 1. I'm currently testing this on a N3DS via Ironhax (if that is of any importance). My test results are as follows:
Golden Sun: Working at a slow, but still acceptable frame rate. Audio stutters a lot. Crashes if you repeatedly press Select. It also recognized a save file created by CitrAGB.
Golden Sun - The Lost Age: Same frame rate issue. Audio also stutters a lot. Unlike the first game, it did not recognize the save file created by CitrAGB. Crashed near the beginning of the animated intro sequence.
For testing purposes, I'd like to request a visible FPS counter if possible. I'll also look into adding more games to continue testing.

I tried out WarioWare, but that crashed during the first cutscene after entering your name.

I was just trying out the 3DS port...it's got a lot of potential (I'm on a New 3DS running Ironhax over here). It's working very well for an alpha overall. A bit unstable though...it seems to randomly crash after a while. Wasn't even touching the system at the time of the crashes, so I can't really give any info to help find out the cause really. I did have Metroid: Zero Mission crash once when I pressed 'A' a whole bunch, but I don't know if it was just randomly crashing or crashing because of that.
I'm pleased that it runs both Final Fantasy Tactics Advance (is incredibly slow on CitrAGB) and Riviera: The Promised Land (doesn't load at all on CitrAGB for some reason) fairly well.

Pronouns: she/they
The crashing has been a known problem since before I released the alpha, but I've been having a lot of trouble isolating the crash, as it seems to happen randomly. It doesn't reproduce in Citra, which I use sometimes to try to isolate other crashes, so it'll take some time to track down.

Is there a way to render the emulated game on the top screen? I've been trying out Mother 3, Mario Vs. Donkey Kong, and Yoshi's Island, and all load - Yoshi's Island gives me a 'Your Save Data is corrupted' message though. However I get absolutely no sound on my 9.9. O3DS on neither of those games. Is this normal? I'm running Ironhax with the latest boot.3dsx provided by Smea, if that matters.
