NES games on your PS3? Yes you read correctly, there is a way to play your old Nintendo games on your next gen system, the PS3 and it doesn’t involve hacking at all. I know its amazing news, hit the jump for details.

Hackers have tried to hack the PS3 since it’s launch back in 2006 (read our console hack story). However so far hackers have failed to do so while other systems like the Xbox 360 and the Wii have been hacked out the wazoo. Beside being able to play copied games one big reason hackers want to hack game consoles is to run emulators and play old school games.

It seems like some hackers have given up on hacking the PS3 directly and have become much more deviously savvy. A Japanese programmer has released an application that takes advantage of the Blu-ray players BD-J which allows for Java applications to be run off Blu-ray movie discs.
