Recording Gameplay On 3DS

[AndroGhostX]

I'm not sure if this topic is allowed here so let me know if it isn't But does anyone know of a device or camera set up to record gameplay with good quality? I'd prefer a way where the 3DS isn't shown in the recording, and only the screen is shown. Maybe I could crop that part of the video out though, but I still want a good quality video when recording. I have looked into capture cards but they haven't been made for Mac. There might be a device for Macs and I may be unaware of it, so let me know if there is and where I could get one. :3

Well, tehre isn't much. If you use like an i phone, you can get pretty good 3DS videos.

If you don't have an iphone, then Samsung should work too.

There is someone who installs them for you

I don't think there is anything for Mac that can take good quality videos of 3DS games...

*Implying anything for Mac is quality*

Haha, aren't you cute.

Anyway, you can still get a capture board. You'll just have to run Windows in Bootcamp or on a Parallels virtual machine.

Aithycou - In my opinion, cell phone cameras aren't good devices to use.

Lopmask - What do you mean by that?

Mirukushake - What's a Parallels virtual machine? I don't want to try anything that will mess up my laptop.

It's not going to mess up your computer. It's a product used by developers, etc. to simulate Windows within the Mac operating system without having to reboot. http://parallels.com/

mirukushake - I see! Thanks for the link! I'll research on it to see if I want to give it a try~

Aithycou - I am actually interested in trying that method. :3

Seems way too complicated just to get video footage of your 3DS that's quality IMO

I know But I have a really neat idea that I want to use for my youtube channel~

Ah, well good luck with it. I tried taking quality videos of 3DS footage for my Youtube channel years ago and failed
