Hi,

I just got an iPaq 1910 and I am downloading my ass off. I just wanted to know:

I found all of the NES and SNES emulators on the web, but I can't find ANY games for them.

Does anyone know where I can get games for them? (ie. mario bros, zelda, balloon fight, contra, etc)

THANKS!!!

1. Don't crosspost.
2. ROMs are illegal.
3. Don't go into any random forum and post because it's remotely related.
4. GO AWAY.

Chck the point is he shouldn't be asking for it in a public board, in which many many people are law-abiding, and do it in 3-4 different forums too.

just because one is "law abiding" doesn't mean that one can't point a not so law abiding person in the right direction. Information is not illegal, it is using the information to preform or acquire illegal property that is bad.

Downlolading copyrighted ROMS is illegal. It's as simple as that. You can transfer ROMs to your computer and make a back up copy from the original game cartridge/data, but you can't download/transfer or distribute ROMs. ROMs are perfectly legal, as long as you made the ROM from your own original game using special hardware to transfer the data to your computer.

hehe, try searching for Gameboy Roms in Internet Explorer, you'll reach the nintendo page that says all about it.
