Play Nintendo video games on your web browser for free

If like me, you were also born in the early 90s or the late 80s, you sure must be familiar with Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) or "video game" as we used to call it. If you are not, Nintendo Entertainment System or video game is a TV game console which was popular in the 90s. It contained a central box connected with two (or more) joysticks, a virtual gun and a printed circuit board (cassette) which contained the data of the games. In India, NES was popular with the names, "video game", "cassette game", "TV game", "8-bit game" etc.. Companies like Nintendo, Samurai, Media etc. were the leading manufacturers of this gaming system. A picture of NES taken from Google images is featured below.



The popular games people used to play on NES were "Super Mario", "Donkey Kong", "Super Contra",  "Duck Hunt", "Tetris" and many more. A screenshot from Super Mario is featured below.


I myself was a hard core NES gamer. I played almost every game I got till the last stage of it, defeated the boss and win the game. I left gaming when I was 13 or 14 maybe as all three of my NES crashed, and new ones were not available as NES was replaced by new technology gaming. I also played on gameboy and MS-DOS but I never enjoyed them as much as I enjoyed NES. I always wanted to play those games again.

One fine day, I found vNES (virtual NES) while browsing the Internet. vNES is a virtual game console which runs on java on web browsers.
