Everyone has heard of an emulator at one point or another, but a lot of people are still clueless as to the potential of these great pieces of software.

Today we have lots of great options for playing N64 games. My favorite is a program called Project64, which can be downloaded from here: www.pj64.net

Once you have this great piece of software downloaded, proceed to install it.

At this point you have an N64, but no games. To get the games, first make sure you legally own them. I'm serious, the feds armed with Gamecube assault Wavebirds are going to storm your house if you don't legally own these games.

With that covered, use Google to search something along the lines of N64 rawms, except spelled correctly. You will find certain sites with these rawms, which you can download and play at incredible FPS and have better graphics than an N64.

Controls may be an issue for you; in this case simply get a gamepad or follow the XBOX controller tutorial on this site.
