    Default WTB Nintendo

    I've been looking for an old Nintendo (1st one made). Haven't had any luck finding one. If you have a working one that you want to sell and if you have any games for it let me know. Thanks!

    Go to Ebay & search "USB SNES". You will find USB a game pad to plug into your computer for about $20.

    Emulators 4 (NES + SNES) = PARTY TIME... on your computer.

    A pretty basic computer\laptop can run NES & SNES Emulators. I was running 100% of NES ROMS & 99% of SNES ROMS smoothly and without any problems about 8 years ago on a crappy P3 600MHz Laptop with 64MB of RAM. Those are almost considered throw away computers now. You could probably find one for less than $50. If you ever get serious about getting into emulators let me know. I'm sure I can point you in the right direction to hundreds of hours of play time. Or you can continue your quest on finding a vintage NES Console...

    i have an old compaq computer that i am selling for $20 that would be perfect for game emulation. you could run mame (runs old arcade games like galaga), atari, snes, and any other emulator you want. i can probably even find those emulators and roms for you online and put them on the computer.....
