There’s still something about the Nintendo Entertainment System. Even all these years later when we have hyper-realistic 3D graphics running at thirty frames a second, full orchestrated soundtracks, voice acting, controllers that respond to real movement, high definition graphics… There’s still just something about those two color sprites, the blips and bloops of the music, the way the graphics would freak out and get all weird if the game was put in wrong… It was VIDEO GAMES, and it had a certain excitement that modern games rarely achieve, and that’s why these Nintendo emulater programs remain so popular…

Windows

Luckily, there are a lot of emulators on Windows that render just about every game released on the system, including some unlicensed oddities, with no noticeable problems whatsoever. It’s free, but the world of NES emulators on PC is always changing, so keep checking back.

OS X

Mac OSX is tricky for finding the best emulators, but luckily, many of the top PC emulators have been ported to the system, and work just about as well as the PC versions. Just find one you can rely on and keep it, since the world of Mac emulators isn’t quite as dynamic as the world of PC emulators.

Nintendo Wii

The best emulator on the Wii is, of course, the Virtual Console. The only problem with the Virtual Console is that Nintendo decides which games are released and which aren’t, so while all the big games are released for download sooner or later, some of your favorite cult classics might just get the cold shoulder. Find a good third party backup emulator for when Nintendo slacks off.

The Playstation Portable

PSP, while being a Sony licensed product, has a handful of great emulators with really efficient organizer systems, that play any game you want to play just fine. Look around and see which one works best.
