Hi, creator here.
This is a tribute to the old times, when iframes was the new big thing and JavaScript wasn't widely used.
I wanted to investigate how hard it would be to implement a
-compatible nes emulator that could be played together with other people in realtime. A stretch goal was to make it work in browsers from the late 90's.Ironically, everything is written in JavaScript on the server using Node.js. :D
If the game seems to be frozen, someone has probably hit select which pauses the game.
And oh, I confirmed that it works on Internet Explorer 6 and Netscape 6 if you feel like playing on your old computer.
Hey Pierre!
This is awesome. Could you explain how this use of iframe works to some of the new kids on the block?
Nice idea! Will write a blog post shortly about this implementation. Will let you know. :)
Right on!
