3DSnickerStream Wiki

Stream your Nintendo 3DS to your PC — Windows, macOS and Linux, one app.

3DSnickerStream is a modern, cross-platform remoteplay client for the 3DS (NTR CFW and HzMod), rebuilt from the ground up on Avalonia UI. It's the successor to RattletraPM's original Snickerstream, now running natively on all three desktop platforms from a single codebase.

At a glance

  • NTR & HzMod remoteplay — dual-screen NTR, or top-screen HzMod (beta).
  • Four NTR-HR compression formats — JPEG Compat, Uncompressed, and the smooth Reliable Stream / Reliable Stream Delta modes. See Compression Formats.
  • Live stream view — Stacked / Side-by-side / Top-only / Bottom-only, free rotation, per-screen zoom / gap / scale, per-screen colour adjustment, ambient glow, and a borderless clean mode.
  • Copy text from the stream (OCR) with a dedicated hex mode.
  • Find on network — scan the LAN for a 3DS, with scan-on-startup, auto-connect and auto-reconnect.
  • Quality presets, saved-IP bookmarks, remappable shortcuts and an in-app update check.

⚠️ 3DSnickerStream only displays the stream. Your 3DS needs NTR-HR or HzMod installed and running first — see Installation.
