The idea that somebody could program a Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) emulator completely in Javascript just blows my mind.
For those that don’t know, Javascript is a language of sorts that’s built into your browser. It’s usually used for doing such mundane tasks as button roll-overs, making simple screen transitions, verifying that you entered a valid e-mail address, etc. I don’t think that using it as a full-blown processor environment was ever part of the original conception.
You’ll want to use Google Chrome for this – competitor browsers aren’t quite fast enough to play this yet.
Yeah, there’s no sound on this emulator but for a quick arcade fix it’s pretty good. There are lots of other ways to play games like this, just use Google or Bing to find them.
