don't you need like an emulator or stuff like that? but most console games are not for PC, and there's a reason for that, just stick with your PC games, there're plenty to go around

You can play console games on the PC* using emulators, though it is illegal unless you have the game itself.

I've downloaded many emulators and none of them worked. Recently got one that works from a friend, though I still didn't play it. :/
Now for the games.. I'm sure I have some left from my PS1 era.

Right now i have NES, SNES and N64 emu, they all work fine for me.
