1. The games are substantially larger than NES files, and would take quite a bit of server space.
2. It would be near impossible to write a Java applet that would emulate an N64 game, making it illegal.
3. The controls would be difficult to use.
4. no u

Well, we can't use anything beyone NES for a VERY, VERY obvious reason:
THE FILE SIZES ARE TOO LARGE.

1. The games are substantially larger than NES files, and would take quite a bit of server space. Just what I said.
2. It would be near impossible to write a Java applet that would emulate an N64 game, making it illegal. GASP!  IT'D BE ILLEGAL!  You guys know your stuff...
3. The controls would be difficult to use. Ooh, good point.
4. no u

And emulating NES isn't? Please explain.

The larger the game, the harder it is to put in a Java applet.

As Silverhawk mentioned, it would take a very large amount of server space.  A computerized file of an NES file is around 59 kb, while a Nintendo 64 one is appx. 8.5mb. Remember, I'm not counting these as Java applications either. ;)  Nor do any of us even have the knowledge on how to make a Nintendo 64 game a Java application. And who would want to play a game using 16+ keys on their keyboard. :P

With that out of the way, I apologize, but I must lock this thread as emulation discussion is not allowed. ;)
