Minimum requirements for NES emulation?

[theg]

Hi,

Does anyone know what the minimum requirements in terms of CPU speed, RAM, etc. are for NES emulation? Not for any specific emulator, just in general.

Thanks,

I don't know the specifics, but almost any modern computer will be able to run an NES emulator.

I know, but I'm planning on writing an emulator for an ARM dev board, and would like to know which dev board to go for for such a project, so I don't waste money on extra speed or power that is unneeded :)

1GB of RAM
1GHz processor
about it really almost any on board graphics will run it but as far as main specifications go thats all you would need

I don't really know. I am new to this site and I'm pretty noobish. Sorry :/
