Nintendo Modulator

Hey Guys, i want to play old Nintendo games on my mac through a modulator and Roms (like Super Mario Bros). Does anyone have a modulator that they use and a site to get roms? Thanks.

I've used this one before and it works fairly well...

There are other to try as well. As for ROM sites - take a peek here - this site isn't too bad for ads etc...

You're right Diffkid, thanks for clearing that up. Also, since you seem to be familiar with it, i have an emulator for my chipped xbox that plays my NES games, and thats the emulator i'm looking for. The SNES is cool, but i want to play the original mario and zelda games. Do you know of an NES emulator for the Mac like the one for Xbox's or PC's. Thanks Diffkid

I just got into the same type of thing yesterday, so here is what I found....pretty sweet.

Emulator:

go down to nestopia and download it.

Roms:

over 750 games for the NES

and the best part....
a controller with USB connection...
