These can be shared between devices and are recommended for general use, as they do not corrupt as easily.\nSave states, on the other hand, save Citra's entire emulation state. This includes Citra's configuration, a game's RNG seed, as well as any faults in the emulation at the time of saving. This makes them very useful as a tool for practicing in-game tricks, or for usage in shiny hunting and other RNG related trigger events. However they're not suitable as replacements for in-game save files as the faults in the emulation state would keep building up until the emulation state is too unstable to load properly. They're also ***non-transferable*** because they are made with one setup and only one."}, + "states": {"reply": "Save states save the entirety of Citra's emulation state. As a result of this, Citra updates that add new things to serialize in the emulation state will break the loading of existing save states that were created on prior Citra versions. Additionally, saving upon save state created progress will make the emulation state gradually more unstable, since the emulation state never gets to clear out emulation bugs with a proper shut down.\nThis is why in-game save files should be used most of all when saving and loading your progress. Save states should only be used within single gaming sessions, not beyond them.\nLastly, save states cannot be transferred between different Citra installations. They may load, but they'll break the virtual file system."}, "folder": {"reply": "When you open the game directory selector, you need to choose the folder your games are in, not the games themselves.
