    But the problem with browser emulation is the fact that how slow and laggy they are, and some of them don't have any classic games that you want to play.

    Like I said though, the purpose here is merely to try out games, so things like slow, laggy, crappy controls, etc aren't really relevant. Limited selection can be an issue, but not a particularly significant one (especially since there are many such sites to choose from. Also keep in mind that many roms sites don't carry some of the more popular games because of legal threats, and torrents are often dead or so slow as to be nearly dead).

    		 my suggestion...should have got a master system OHHHH!!!!

    But seriosuly, you really can't go wrong with anything on NES, even the bad games, if got cheaply, will give you some fun.

    But a few of my faves: Crystalis, Bubble Bobble (of coarse) Stinger, Journey to silius, Dynowarz, and if you can find it, Faria.

    		 Megaman's not so great after 3. 4 was OK, just because of the new gun but by 5 and 6 it was really tiresome. Now the second and third games, are must-haves for sure; and the first one for a big fan or if you want more challenge. But the later games I would avoid after playing the others.

    		 Definitely all three Mario games, Castlevania, Metroid, TMNT 2: The Arcade Game, and Kirby's Adventure. And if you feel like swearing and hurling things at your TV then you should get Battletoads...lol Hardest game ever, hands down.

    Never too late to enjoy some classic gaming. I've even been thinking about picking up an NES or an NES clone when my Sega Genesis collection is complete. I'm only like five games away and I haven't done too much game shopping in the last year or so.

    One thing you could do is try out some NES roms. An easy way to do that is via an online emulator such as one of these:
    http://www.virtualnes.com/index.html
    http://www.playnes.net/plug.php?e=browsegames
    http://www.nescafeplay.com/main/

    Playing those games with a keyboard, in your browser kinda sucks, but it'll let you explore various games & decide which ones you want to buy.
    There is site I go to,Nintendo8.com,where I practice for NES Games. You should check that out.

    		 Check this site out if you would like to play NES games.

    The only thing you need to do to play them is to download Java.

    		 Another question. Can you plug in a NES to a modern LCD High Definition television or do need something older? I also have a 1998 Sony 16 inch Trinitron;Does it work on that?

    		 New TVs are backwards compatible. You can play a NES on either of those. If using a widescreen set, adjust the aspect ratio correctly!

    		 As long as your TV has the normal coax connection & an analog tuner, you can use any old game system on it. If your TV lacks an analog tuner, but both it & the game have A/V jacks, you can connect it that way & play just fine.

    btw What type of NES did you get? The old frontloader, the top loader, some knockoff brand, an old famicom, ...?

    the original ''boxy'' frontloader design from 1985.

    		 My old front loader gave up the ghost nearly 20 years ago, I definitely don't miss the days of having to spit in the cartridges & hammer the reset button to get the games to load.
    I currently have a top loader that I got ages ago. It still worked well the last time I used it, I just wish it had A/V jacks.

    One accessory you should try to find is an NES advantage joystick. You can place it on a table or hold it on your lap, and it feels/works a lot like playing at an arcade. It also has independantly togglable rapidfire for the A and B buttons, plus you can adjust the speed of the rapidfire, plus it also has slowmo (which actually just pauses/unpauses the game rapidly).
    When playing a 2-player alternating game, you can plug the advantage into both ports & just pass it back & forth. If playing 2 player simultaneous you can just plug in the one cable & plug any other controller into the remaining port for player 2.
