For gamepad support I suggest something like joy2key. :) <br /><br />I'll start auditioning level sets for it soon.

I use VirtualBox with Windows 7 + 2D and 3D accelerations + the lowest possible resolution on the Host (640x480). With this I can run the game in fullscreen with virtually no slow down (there are occasional ones but they are rare and don't last long). :-) :-) :-)<br /><br />The last thing I need is gamepad support but I'm sure I find a way.A-Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03506796545253306605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6460902389414233291.post-50914322284913947302015-08-12T03:16:56.017-07:002015-08-12T03:16:56.017-07:00Reposted without so many typos: It seems Wine does...Reposted without so many typos: It seems Wine does not support Java.

But I say we just play the one I linked originally, Mario NES Builder is an actual game which is supposed to have multiplatform support because it is coded in Java. Then you just download the level files from the server and you have tons of levels to play. <br /><br />I'll spend some time over the next week checking out level sets for it and try to pick one that is good quality and challenging but not too insanely hard. :) organic iohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13159435687504488354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6460902389414233291.post-15206967615678998822015-08-11T22:47:01.246-07:002015-08-11T22:47:01.246-07:00I also tried SMB Game Master but it runs incredibl...I also tried SMB Game Master but it runs incredibly slowly.
