 <p>A non-fungible token (NFT) platform is launching a classic Nintendo emulator on Bitcoin (BTC) using BTC ordinals.</p>
 <p>In a new announcement, NFT platform Pizza Ninjas says it has successfully launched an N64 emulator on the crypto king using ordinals, which inscribe data on satoshis, the smallest unit of BTC.</p>
 <div class="code-block code-block-055f5289fd7e731bb72be7c5a19d18ed code-block-1">

 <p>Emulators allow gamers to play video game consoles on other devices without needing to own or operate the console itself.</p>
 <p>According to Pizza Ninjas, utilizing Google’s Brotli Compression method has allowed them to inscribe bigger and bigger items.</p>
 <p><em> “Inscribing a larger system like N64 and its games is more realistically feasible than before. Brotli Compression allows for file size reductions around 80%. Take for example, the iconic Goldeneye 64. It’s 12.4 MB uncompressed, but with Brotli we can get it down to 3.15 MB!</em></p>
 <p><em> This is enough to fit it inside 1 Bitcoin block (4 MB) or split across 8 transactions under 400 kb. And with network fees now the lowest we’ve seen since the start of Ordinals. Inscribing this at the current 15 sats/vbyte would only cost $6,000.</em></p>
 <p><em>Totally reasonable for a community of gamers with a vested interest in seeing these classic games preserved forever.” </em></p>
 <p>The Nintendo 64 was launched in 1996 and sold over 30 million units over its lifetime, according to data-tracking platform Statista.</p>
 <p>In January, the classic first-person shooter Doom – which pits players against demons on Mars – was also inscribed on Dogecoin (DOGE) using “doginals,” the meme asset’s own version of BTC ordinals.</p>
