Windows 95 on a Nintendo 3DS is as strange as you'd think
The real challenge may be to run any meaningful software beyond the operating system. As great as it would be to run classic Windows games on a modern handheld, it could be a long, long while before you're doing much more than staring at the home screen. Even so, this because-I-can feat is pretty impressive... and it's probably the closest you'll ever get to a portable Microsoft gaming system.

The lines of code at the bottom are sure weird, but it's amazing that people can hack the device so it can run a PC Operating system

Its pretty sick how someone has managed to do it but I do not see the practicality of it.

Pretty cool to know that this is possible but other than that, it has no point of being used.

Daniel this is the most pointless thing ever !!!
Not really, just a test to show how easy Windows used to be to run.
