FireNES = Love

July 30, 2008

I will not be first, and won’t be the last, to say how awesome FireNES is. FireNES allows you to play almost any NES game you can think of through Firefox. This rocks harder than anything that has rocked before.

FireNES
Isn’t Bionic Commando one of the best games ever?

The Pros:

  • If you can think of a game, FireNES has it.
  • Works on just about any computer

The Cons:

  • Doesn’t work on the Mac Mini at work. (Even though it works on other Macs)
  • Some games run a little choppy.
  • Can’t change the keyboard layout.
  • Can’t use a joypad.

Yes, There are more Cons than Pros on my list, but observe this Enjoyment Vs. Time chart. As one can see, the excitement stays high, even though I got my ass kicked several times.
