I have only two small questions:

1) What is the best free video game (NES) emulator available?

2) Where can I find free games to run on that emulator?

Thanks for your help!

1. I use PocketNES (http://pocketnes.retrogames.com/), and it works quite well. The only frustration I have is that it doesn't remember your button configuration.

2. Technically, getting NES ROMS is illegal unless you physically own the games, so I'm not sure if I'm allowed to tell you this. Maybe I can tell you to search at Google for "NES ROMS" and get the 4th entry - "ultimate NES ROMS - no bad links! (etc)". All the ROMS I've found there have worked out.

Have fun with NES - it sure helped me through a day of Driver's Ed.

Thanks, at one point I did own a great number of Nintendo games, so . . .

Spursdude: I don't have my PPC yet so I can't test them. Will these ROMs work with my PPC or is there another step? Are they specifically designed for the PPC OS?

Those ROMS work perfectly with my Pocket PC. Just dragged and dropped them onto my CF card, and everything worked fine.

Great, thanks for the help. BTW, found another awesome site for ROMs, has some that Ultimate is missing. Can't say for sure if they work. Search Google, the website is something like pocketpcfaqs.com
