NES honestly has the best games of all time. Flashy graphics are nice (I own a PS2, GameCube, and Dreamcast), but they are no substitute for truely ace gameplay. NES had to make due with what little power it had, and some of the developers did a MARVELOUS job cramming an enormous ammount of gameplay into relatively few pixels.

I too, am a BIG TIME newbie when it comes to playing games, let alone on my PPC. So, here is my question: Is there an application that will allow me to play a game like Super Mario Brothers that has *really nice graphics* by todays standards? If so, what is the app, and how do I install it and get games for it? Thanks!

Hi,

Where can I find these games ???

Thx

With great power comes great responsibility.

 

Good graphics by today's standards? LOL Nope.

Links to rom sites are not allowed on the board, so just use a google search.
