I got this R4 card for my birthday. Only if I play a DS Emulator on the R4 card, the emulator is not there. I tried that with DeSmu, IDeaS and DeSmuME. So I'm wondering is an emulator needed on an R4 card? I'm using a New Nintendo 3DS XL by the way.
On the memory card must be the right one! Firmware on it. These can be found at the address on the card (if it still exists) …
This is a folder structure with div files that need to go directly into the root directory… The games are then added to the map. I mean, you can create a folder for that, to keep a little overview (should not a folder already be given for that)

Is the page with the necessary firmware and system kernel
At my R4 for the DSi that was not necessary at the time, I think that's not the case with you either.
Just download the games from the internet and play them up.
Why should you need an emulator? You put it in the right hardware…
You need the right firmware though.
