    Firefox 3 + FireNES = Nintendo Games (At Work)

    by Chad Lakkis on June 22, 2008 at 2:55 am

    Many of us are still test driving the new Firefox 3 release by browsing the internet for cool shit, but what the latest Mozilla creation is really craving is some old school NES gaming action. Here’s how to give it what it wants.

    While we do not advise nor condone the playing of videogames through your browser while at work, we completely understand why some misguided individuals may want to do so — because being stuck at work without any videogames sucks.

    HOW TO PLAY NINTENDO GAMES IN FIREFOX 3

    1) Get Firefox 3 (if you haven’t already you should be smacked)

    2) Download the FireNES plugin.

    3) Install FireNES and restart Firefox 3.

    3b) You may get a pop up asking you if you want to disable or uninstall FireNES when Firefox 3 restarts. Do not do any of those things, simply close that pop up.

    4) Click on Tools and scroll all the way down to “FireNES”. Select FireNES and a sidebar should pop up on the left side of your browser. This bar will feature a shit ton of classic Nintendo games.

    5) To play the game of your choice, simply double click on it in the list.

    5b) If the game does not load, you may need to install the latest version of Java which only takes a few seconds to install.

    6) For instructions on which keys to press, right click on the title and select “options” from the pop up menu, then tab over to the “controls” tab.

    7) Prepare to use the key combination of “Alt + Tab” to prevent getting caught playing videogames in your browser at work. Be smart, and there is no reason that this can’t remain our little secret.

      what are the controls???? or where am i supposed to click to find them???
    • First of all, "remain our little secret" should've read "remain our dirty little secret".

      Secondly, two things in Java are needed for this game. One is the JRE (or the Java Runtime Environment) or JVM (Java Virtual Machine) specific for your kind of OS and platform, and then the Java plugin for Firefox 3.

      Lastly, you should put a disclaimer in there somewhere stating that you're not liable for us getting fired from our places of work. :P
    • Great points Bisaya. Here you go....

      This secret is dirty and Ripten will not be liable for you getting canned if caught playing this at work.

      please help me find another one, I want to play some NES games on my browser like mad =)
    • awesome :D , this is really neat, oh and just for a little hint if you have a rather slow office computer alt+tab-ing is uber slow and the contents may still appear on screen lol my buddy of mine experienced this the difficult way with his boss!

      oh yeah and thanks for this information, now I'm going to upload some NES!
