JSNES running Super Mario Brothers

I always thought that JavaScript puts the zing to client-side web development. With the help of JavaScript frameworks and libraries such as jQuery, Prototype, ExtJS and the like, adding a interactive effects or using AJAX becomes so easy that almost anyone could do it. And now that Canvas HTML element is getting more and more support from major browsers, I imagine things would get a lot more interesting!

Now enters JSNES, a JavaScript and Canvas based NES (Nintendo Entertainment System) emulator project of Ben Firshman. Playing it is just pure ecstatic and the possibilities just went through the roof! You should use Google Chrome though since it’s currently the only browser with the most optimized Canvas implementation but JSNES should run on Firefox 3.5 and Safari 4.
