Java Based NES Emulator
This post could have been a rant about Nintendo’s censoring policies of yore, focusing for example on the convenient paradigm of Maniac Mansion (for NES, apparently). Of course, it’s not.It’s a simple, albeit glorified, post about a link. A link to a Java-based NES (or Famicom, accordingly) emulator, wisely code-named Andre’s NES Emulator. Visit it and play such classics as Super Mario Bros., Donkey Kong, Punch Out, Metroid, The Legend of Zelda, Final Fantasy, Mega Man and Castlevania. Each one of them a piece of gaming history. Each one of them quite free and without the need for any downloads.
Oh – it almost slipped my mind – here’s the link. Have fun, but don’t break anything.

It is thus about computer & video games, old games, new games, indie games, adventure games, free games, board games, ludology, game creation, RPGs, books on games, games on books, and well the theory of and in games.

Mr. Elderly, thanks so much for taking care of the lair and checking out on it! Thankfully everything is allright… And from now on each and every Gnome’s Lair template will be also copied in a nice .txt file for safekeeping.
Jakanden, you are quite the lucky one… I have to live with java emus.
