With this announcement, you could play them on a brand-new, super-fast system called Hydra.
Charles has big plans. He’s working to put a Nintendo emulator on Hydra so fans can play games on Cardano’s network. Pretty cool, right?
Hydra Enhances Cardano for Fast, Affordable Nintendo Gaming
Hydra is like a big “family” of layer 2 technologies that help make Cardano faster and easier to use. In simple terms, think of layer 2 as extra lanes on a highway. Adding more lanes can help with traffic, just like Hydra helps Cardano handle more transactions quickly. This means that lots of people could play games or make transactions on the Cardano network without it getting slow or expensive.
Hydra is a family of layer 2 protocols designed to make #Cardano more scalable and adaptable for various use cases that require fast and cheap transactions. The first Hydra head recently opened on mainnet.

The idea of using Hydra to play Nintendo games is pretty exciting. Charles wants to create a way to play regular Nintendo and Super Nintendo games right on Cardano. By using an emulator, people would be able to play these games without needing the original consoles. An emulator is like a digital version of the old Nintendo system – it copies the way the games run so you can play them on different devices.
More About Hydra & Videogames
One of the coolest things about Hydra is that it’s “decentralized.” Unlike traditional gaming systems that are controlled by one company, Hydra doesn’t have a single owner. The network is shared and spread out among users, which means no one can decide to shut it down. This makes it a unique place for people to play games.
🚨BREAKING: @IOHK_Charles is putting an #Nintendo emulator on #Hydra so you can play ANY regular/super Nintendo off of the decentralized network 🤯
Mega nerds all around the world will be going crazy for #Cardano 🫡
How cool is that?
