I was debating buying one of those mini itx motherboards shelling out an old NES and using it as a case and interfacing the controllers with the computer.  I think it'd be real exciting to have a real NES and real joysticks to play any NES game. 

SirPoonga:

I don't have the link off hand but this has been done.

Scott84:

If you search the console forums. You will find a much easier and cheaper alternative. Put a Dreamcast in the NES Shell and you got perfect NES goodness. You can even hook up original controllers to it!

search the console forums for the topic.

Stingray:

I agree that the Dreamcast option is the better of the two. Easier, cheaper, & cleaner. NES games run like a dream on a DC. I haven't built one yet, but I do have all the parts. he DC guts fit inside the NES toaster like they were made to go in there.
