Mozilla released an experimental project, a SWF runtime implemented in JavaScript. Try out the racing game demo. Flash has taken some hits. Apple won’t support it on iOS. It’s not in Android 4. And Chrome provides its own runtime to replace the buggy version offered by Adobe. Shumway works well in Chrome but not IE9. Still, the actual use cases for this might be rare. If it’s something worthwhile, you probably will want to remake it in HTML5 anyway. Maybe if you had some SWF content and none of the source files, it could get you by for a short time.
