Free games? impossible! no?

It seems to me that alot of people are still unaware of what a rom is!

well, heres the news....

a ROM is an image of a game, be it a cartridge, or a disk. usually found online. roms can be for any system. my personal favorites are sega, snes, game boy advance and nintendo ds.

what good are they? well.... if you have whats called an emulator, you can play these games on your pc! (i got myself a gamepad to play with)

check it out






well, anyway... in order to play it youll need 2 things, roms and an emulator, heres what i use...

sega (gamegear, 32x, genesis) = kega fusion
snes = snes9x or zsnes
nds = no$gba
gba, gb, gbc = visualboy advance
nes = rocknes
n64 = project64

there are more of course, one for every system including the latest generation, a good source of older roms is www.romhustler.net

for anything else youll have to google it ;]

of course, every system from atari to ps3 has an emulator, the iso ones are harder to run though because they usually require alot more downloading, and searching for bios files.

I only have the SNES9X and about 3 games for it lol, but that's cuz I used to have a TON of roms and emulators on my old computer but it gave me so many viruses and my computer died because of it >_> So I stick to mostly buying new games and new systems and the occasional rom >_

lol, roms dont give you viruses, but fake roms doo. theres alot of myths about viruses that arent true, like, you can only get a virus from a file ending in html, js, vbs, exe, bat, or com, realistically. that means no roms, or mp3 or anythign of the sort. i used to program them when i was bored
