Whether you are at work, or just want to pass some time on your laptop while watching something on TV, there are tons of great sites out there that let you play various games on your web browser.
Game Boy Advanced, DOS, SEGA Genesis, and much more. All these sites load the games directly onto your webpage, so there is no need to download or even install anything.
GBA Fun
Like the site’s name suggests, GBA Fun is a Game Boy Color/ Game Boy Advanced emulator.
Here you will be able to play great games such as Kingdom Hearts: Re Chain of Memories, Sonic Battle, and all the other classics you remember from your childhood.
Although the site lacks any Pokemon game, probably due to copyright or license issues, it has everything else you could dream of.
LoveRoms.com
If you are looking to go even further back in time back to the good old days of NES, then Loveroms.com would be the most ideal site to do so.
The site is pretty easy to use, and does not require any sort of Java setup of the sorts.
Here you can choose what you want to play from a hundreds of available games, and then hit the play button.
There are even some really cheap knockoff games that I remember from buying those ridiculous 200-in-one package cartridges, that came with a Zelda game where you play as Pikachu.
Emulator.online
Emulator.online, has some great browser-based games, but its greatest collection has to be SNES games.
The site has hundreds of them, from Yoshi’s Island all the way to FIFA 96.
The SNES had some of the greatest games ever and was a massive influence for today’s consoles and games.
ssega.com
Before SEGA’s terrible fallout on the hardware side of gaming, its Genesis console was one of the best pieces of hardware to ever grace the gaming industry.
Games like The Addams Family, Sonic the Hedgehog, and more all made the console a must-own.
ssega.com, has all these great games available to play on your web browser with full screen support and very little bugs.
It is definitely the site you want to keep at the top of your bookmarks.
Game-oldies.com
When the original PlayStation released, it redefined gaming with its 3D capabilities and disc format. Games were bigger and better than ever.
This spawned a new generation that left the sprites behind for a world made up of 3D models.
Game-oldies is one of the few sites out there that actually run PlayStation games on your browser without any sort of Java exception nonsense.
All you need to do is find the game you want and load it. Testing out games like Crash Bandicoot 2, and Worms, they all worked like a charm.
playdosgamesonline.com
Like the title suggests, this site is all about those awesome DOS games we grew up with. Doom, Hocus Pocus, Wolfenstein and more.
The games I tested worked really well, and offered full device support from your browser. If anything, this is the best way to play DOS games nowadays, as they are no longer supported on Windows 8 and up without an emulator installed.
