Depends on what the previous emulator was.

You can also find me on Reddit (u/Ericbazinga) and Discord (in the DraStic Discord server). You'll find me in those places almost daily and here almost never.

I assume they mean nds4droid. I don't think the savestates would be compatible. The in-game .sav files will be though (if renamed to .dsv), nds4droid is based off desmume and Drastic can read desmume formatted savefiles so I assume that at least

There's no way you'll be able to transfer savestates, no matter what the emulator used. You can transfer save game files (.dsv), you have to make an in-game save for this to work.
