Most of the sites in the NES rom topic will also carry SNES roms:

Personally I like www.rom-world.com , but it's their policy to not carry roms of the most popular games so you'll have to look elsewhere if you want Mario, Zelda, etc.

Damn rom-world! :wink:
They list all the cool roms (even hacks) and then you can't download them.
Then just try the sites listed in the NES emulation forum. Usually you find it somewhere there.

:?: What couldn't you download? The hacks are my favourite part of the site. I've downloaded loads of the SMB ones no problems.

To Manuel:

I haven't had any problems with downloading from there, either. You have to make sure to do the two votes, dude.... maybe you're skipping over that?

It's not that bad, because you only have to do it once per day.

I've never voted on any of those sites... a big hassle when there is a nice list of others right on this forum.

You don't have to vote at rom-world, it just asks you to.

Gonna have to quit voting since the voting places are such questionable places! :)

Sorry, my bad. It wasn't romworld I was complaining about. :oops:

That's romnation!

Telling me "This rom is not available for download. It is protected by the IDSA." blah blah...

I've heard you complain about this before... what ROMs are you trying to get? I've never had any problems there, either...

It must just be that ROM. There may even be a couple of others like that. Anyway, I guess there's not much you can do about it. They really should just tear down the link, or give a link to another site...

Yes, it's not a big problem, though.
You can get everything you want from other sites.

In the past few days I've been downloading a lot of Genesis and SNES ROM files and I've used emuasylum.com for all of em. That site is really good. I suggest it to anyone.

That site looks good. :D

And they have masses of romsm, but it seems that you have to make a donation to download... they allow you a 120mb for free, as far as I understood...

you could download just about every NES game ever in 120 MB... it's only when you get to more recent consoles that you get big ROMs, like the 8MB Star Ocean for the SNES

I'm not going to count CD images, since they're mostly just packed with garbage, and not really a ROM in my opinion, for it to be a ROM it has to have been dumped from a cartridge. since that's why the name ROM came to be. They were a dump of the data contained on the ROM chips inside the cart.

But isn't a copied Saturn CD a rom, too? At least it's a CD-ROM.

Doesn't matter.
I just wanted to say that they also have Saturn games for download.
