MetraByte has successfully run Windows 95 on the Nintendo 3DS using DOSBox, but faced significant challenges such as slow boot times and performance issues. Initial attempts to run applications like Paint were frustrating, leading him to abandon plans for music creation. Each installation attempt took around 30 minutes, with a final successful installation taking over two hours, often resulting in Blue Screen of Death errors and driver issues. The experiment illustrates the nostalgic appeal of older operating systems, despite the difficulties encountered in retro computing.
