ok. . . run a search for an emulator. It is the program needed to run the roms (or copy of game). after you d/l the emulator you desire run a search for roms for the system you d/led the emulator for. I have an NES emulator and Gameboy Advanced one. I'm always playing either legacy of Goku or Mario Brothers 3.

yeah once you have the emulator you'll just have to open the rom with the emulator. they even have ones for systems as new as nintendo 64.

I actually built an arcade cabinet and put a old PC inside to run the ROMS. 1000s of games out there. Its nice playing the old school games.

Anyone remember the Bubble Bobble stage code? It was like BDBBDB.
