3DS.py is a WIP port of the Python 3.6.9 interpreter to the Nintendo 3DS.

It allows you to run your Python scripts directly on the 3DS by having the interpreter embedded into a homebrew application that launches a main.py script from the same directory.

Installation

Copy the entire 3DS.py folder to the 3ds directory of your SD card and navigate into it. You should see a 3DS.py.3dsx application.

The same directory also contains the entire Python standard library and a main.py file.

To run your own projects, copy all source files into the 3DS.py directory and "start" your application from within the main.py file (this is the entry point to any Python homebrew).
