I've heard this is possible, among other things on the DS, so I researched it, and came up with this page: http://www.cs.utah.edu/~tew/nesDS/

All it has is a ZIP file with some executables and BIN files.

Point is, does anybody have any clue as how to go about doing this? Let's say I have some NES Roms on my computer...how would I port them to my DS and play them that way?

Man I feel like such a n00b at these things. I may as well put my DS to good use.

I got a DS and I would LOVE this, its probably a 3rd party device needed, but because of wifi and shit, it might be possible without it, I'll look into it more.

Yeah, I vaguely understand the Readme.txt file in the ZIP file on that page I linked to. It mentions the WiFi link, but it's confusing. :(

I think you need a special cart and the cart reads the games Via Wifi

You need something like the M3, a G6, or similar. There are tons of them.

You're not exactly gonna get a cheaper way.

Or you can get a PSP, a memory card, and work that way.
