Q: Is there no hope for Java?

I currently went to play some NES games online and I couldn't get any to load. After trying different websites, several told me I needed Java or to update my Java.

The newest version (7) is said to only be available for Lion (I obviously have OS X 10.5 Leopard). When I did a Software Update to update whatever latest version of Java I could get, no updates were found. I then searched for the newest version available for 10.5 (which I downloaded from Apple), installed it. Installation complete and these sites are still telling me I need Java or to update my Java. I've restarted. Even checked out my Java settings to enable plug in's? as one website suggested, but that wasn't even an option.

 

Bottom line, am I doomed to not be able to play these games that require Java because I don't have Lion?

 

Thanks and take care.
