That exists? I don't know why I'd be surprised since everything seems to exist these days, in one form or another, but I just never thought about online NES gaming...

It does indeed exist, I played it a long time ago with someone from NESforums.  I can't remember the program I used though so I am not much help.

yeah it's a program built in to an emulator called kaillera. The problem is that kaillera is also used to play arcade games and pretty much everyone is playing those instead of NES games. I remember playing tmnt arcade version with 3 other buddies and beating it the whole way lol you can also type messages while playing the game.

There are also NES/multi emulators that have their own networking servers.  Mednafen and FCEUltra (and variants) come to mind.
