No. First because the Vita is unhacked. Second, the 3DS remains unhacked. Third, it would be very, very hard.

not sure about this, assume PSVITA and 3DS has already fully hacked, 3DS has dual core while Vita has only quad core same 32bit. i think, it needs 4 times or more speed of processor to run a good emu, so this will make it not possible.

But both run on ARM, so most usercode does not need to be recompiled or interpreted. Obviously, you need to emulate the syscalls and hardware.

However, before you can even think about this, there needs to be a 3ds emulator working on pc. And the vita needs to be hacked. At best this would be in 5 years.

Yes, you can. No, it won't happen any time soon.

Assuming that somehow someone manages to code an emulator, you will also need a hard-mod to get the 3D screen emulated.

Actually, I think that the 3d screen can be software emulated given enough resources and a proper algorithm to simulate super-imposed screen :geek:

But I wasn't talking about how the two screens will be distributed. I was talking about how the stereoscopic 3D will be emulated on the upper half of the screen.
