I believe they play on actual NES consoles, hooked up to CRT monitors. You can use an original NES controller or a functionally identical replica. I think they have modified ROMs with a hardcoded seed for the RNG, so that each player gets the same pieces. It can be pretty cool to how oftentimes players start out making identical moves, then slowly diverge.
