...playing online NES. Keep in mind that you need a fast PC for it to be smooth.

Playing these are giving me flashbacks. This was the best time of year because it meant school was out for 3 months, no job, so all NES all the time....now I'm sad.

I'm on a P4 1.8ghz (yes at work) and it's slower than frozen dogshlt.


ok, if you hit + a few times, it works better.

I tried 1942... but let me try another....

[edit]
Tecmo Super Bowl
Skate or Die!
Excitebike
Contra

...all slow!

Didn't the NES have a 8-bit processor? Much more powerful than what I'm running now... ;)

F*CK. I have a p3 450 with 256 ram and win2k. I swear to God that after clicking that link it took me 3 minutes to close that POS. My computer slowed to a crawl. It took me 3 min to even open up task manager to close this. People, unless you have a fast comp, don't even bother.

WOW! That even slowed down my system. I think I'll just use JNES, it has better graphics and sound, not to mention it uses only 10% of my CPU.
