OOjs UI icon information-warning.svg The guides below can't be used to stream DS games and DSiWare. You will need a capture card to do that.

This page will show you how to stream your 3DS' screens to your computer over WiFi. For both methods, keep the following things in mind;

  • 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.
  • While you shouldn't stream from an Old 3DS console due to the very low frames you will get, the section is still here as a 'proof of concept' thing that you can mess around with. It is not intended for practical use.

Finding your 3DS' IP

Streaming with NTR+Snickerstream (recommended)

OOjs UI icon information-destructive.svg This method is not possible with Old 3DS models. You will need to follow the HzMod guide below.

What You Need

Streaming with HzMod+Snickerstream

OOjs UI icon information-destructive.svg This method is only favorable for Old 3DS models, and even then it does not perform very well. Do not use this method if you are using a New 3DS.

What You Need

Section I: Prep Work

  1. Ensure that your console and your computer are on the same network
  2. Download and extract the latest Snickerstream .zip file
  3. Download and extract the HzMod .zip file
  4. Take the SD card out of your console and put it into your computer
  5. Copy the HorizonM.cia and HzLoad.cia files from where you extracted the HzMod .zip file to your SD card
    • You may put these files anywhere where you can easily access them
    • If you plan on streaming extended memory games, Copy the HzLoad_HIMEM.cia file to your SD card as well
  6. Put your SD card back into your console

Section II: Installing CIAs

  1. Power on your console if it is not already on
  2. Open FBI
  3. Press A on SD at the top of your bottom screen
  4. Find the .cia files that you copied, press A on each one and select Install and delete CIA
    • Once you are done, press START to exit FBI

Section III: Streaming

  1. Open the Snickerstream .exe file from where you extracted it
  2. On your console, open all the gifts that appeared on your HOME menu and open HorizonM Loader
    • If you plan on streaming extended memory games, open HorizonM HIMEM Loader instead
    • Your notification LED should now turn cyan, meaning it's ready for streaming
