Play on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Windows Phone, and Android Devices. Nestopia even has its own support forum now use it if you need help with the program: f=36 This list does not include games released on Nintendos Please note that the Wii.

Nestopia is the current king of the NES emulation hill. * Support for five additional sound chips. * Transparent decompression of GZIP-compressed game files.

* Flexible video display sizes with numerous Blitter effects. * Efficient CPU usage, for improved battery life on PowerBooks.
