3DS:Wireless streaming

This page will show you how to stream your New 3DS console's screens to your computer over WiFi.


 * Your console and your computer need to be on the same network.
 * Streaming audio over WiFi currently isn't possible, you will need to use an AUX cable and a device with Line In to receive audio.
 * If you have a poor connection, you may not get the best results. The receiving computer should be connected to the network via ethernet or a 5 GHz connection.
