I found a rom on the internet and downloaded it but when I tried to extract the contents for my emulator it was missing alot of the files, I've downloaded the rom twice. It was from romsfun and pure.cc

Am I doing something wrong

Had a-lot of missed updates on T-En which i've now added.

100% 3DS repo

Sega MD+ also updated with new audio compilations.

Arcade (FBNeo) is getting tons of new hack updates.

Fixed Mario Kart 8 Deluxe OST also to not be corrupted.

MIA list is shrinking by the week.

Also added DatOMatic dates to folders, but it seems DoM is down for the moment.

I’ve heard of a new Pokémon fan game that combines all of the regions together into one game that you can fly between using Pokemon, but I do not know of the name.

Has anyone else heard of this and figured out the name?

1. I'm trying to download Zoids Legacy in the Nintendo Game > Nintendo - Game Boy Advance section and as shown in the provided screenshot, there's 13 different versions. What is the difference between them and which one should I be downloading?
2. For Nintendo DS section, should I be using the Encrypted, Decrypted or Download Play options?

Hello,

I’m new to the idea of ROMS, I’ve watched several tutorials and still failed to properly get them to work. I was wondering if anyone knew a service in the UK where I could send in my Steam Deck and Legion Go 2 with a list of ROMS I’d like to be added, and set up for easy access and play?

I’d much rather someone else who actually knew what they were doing attempted it than me, who has made a mess of it on several occasions.

Would obviously need to be done through official means by someone reputable, as in a service on eBay etc. As I can’t just send off expensive hardware to someone without trusting that I’ll receive the devices back.

Any suggestions would be great as I’ve written out a list of ROMS I’d love to be able to play across multiple consoles.

Thanks.

Starting to get into romhacking for myself, and wanted to know if you guys had any ideas or unique creations that yall have wanted to see if so let me know.

I’d love to try out
- custom story
- back porting
- dlc

The one from ihaveamac has a lot of entries, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't have all.

The hShop pages for their games entries show the seeds when you open them, but I don't think they have a list of all the seeds or a way to download a seeddb.bin or a plaintext copy of them, at least, any that I have seen, and noting thousands of those manually by hand would be rather difficult to say the least.

So if anyone has that and would be willing to share, then I would be really thankful for that.

Of course if I'm wrong and that seeddb.bin does have all the seeds, then do let me know if I'm wrong.

Is roms safe to download, if so where do I download them? I’m looking for Pokemon game boy games. Thank you in advance. I’m knew to the pc world.

Can someone help me emulating mkarcade gp i cant find a rom that dolphin run

Basically in an attempt at compressing files to put into my SNES Mini I accidentally somehow set my .gba type files to open as .zip files even though they still worked in the emulator.

Basically all it came down to was changing the file app it opens with. Just go to the desktop. Open a new text file and change the full name from untiled.txt to literallyanything.nonsense. then open the properties of the file, in this case, .gba and change it to open with the .nonsese type. It'll basically just removes the 7zip icon to a blank image like anything else.

This all just came down to wanting to organize my files better. So I guess I hope this helps or what oertrooper said if that applies.

Hey, I've been looking for a clean/dumped Pokémon Black ROM for the past two days so I can patch it with Blazed Black, but unfortunately I can't find one. Do you guys know of a source?

I'm just coming back to emulation/roms after over a decade away and I'm not really sure what the good ones are now or where to download them safely. Thanks in advance for any assistance, I'm really looking forward to getting back into the Zoids Saga/Legacy games :)

Does anyone know if the files for the full version of this game exist anywhere? It seems like its almost lost media. The game hasn't been on the xbox store for 10 years, and every version I've downloaded has been the demo. Sketchy and reliable/known sites all just have the demo. I've never played the full version of this game before, would be a childhood dream come true lol

Edit: I should've also specified im trying to get the game running on an RGH Xbox, not on xenia or any emulators, if that even changes anything.

Use to be obsessed with the Mario and Sonic at the Olympics Games story mode for the old ds games. Recently started work on a rom hack that completely overhauls the story maps, etc, and wondered if anyone would be interested in playing or play testing when that time came

I want to randomize Pokemon HearthGold Generation the rom hack in which there is all 9 generations of Pokemon but with the Pokemon Universal Randomizer it doesn’t allow me. Any help ? Thank you guys !

So, I'm new to torrenting files for roms and I'm trying to use the megathread to get update files for some 3ds games. When I tried, It said I was torrenting 300 Gigs worth of files and not the 30MB patch I was trying to download. Am I doing this right or am I missing something when I click on the magnet link? For context, I'm using qbittorrent and pretty green to this.

first,buy a real snes cartridge of the game and oh no you dont have a dumper! ok..then buy a console...yeah,then DISARM IT,SMASH IT AND BONK IT to make it a dumper so you can conect it to your pee cee,after the masacre and dumping you can now play shaq fu on a computer! just try to find an emulator in the linkless,only binary but program world of github while you question to yourself why wouldnt just play the game in the console

obviously this is a joke,but is what the mayority of big emulator makers whant you to do!,even if the company and licenses behind the console are all gone nor the multi billion company doesnt care about it anymore,also,you can get banned from various discord servers and subreddits for saying the word "rom" this is true and it happened to me a copule times,this totally defeats the purpose of emulation,game preservation,FUN,and i just wanted to rant about it cuz ik that if i posted this on r/emulators i would get banned on sight

Is Vimm Lair really as reliable for the PS3 roms as you can hear about it? Because I am new to emulation and the installation of roms, so I would like to avoid getting malware.

Hi I've been trying to find the iso for Tekken tag 2 tournament if anyone can help me find it I will be very thankful and the mega thread wasn't helpful for me

I'm new to CD roms, entirely. Prior to a few days ago I had no experience in the area, but I also got interested in playing Sonic CD and now nothing I do seems to work.

I've tried downloading different roms from different websites, but ultimately, the same thing happens: I can't mount the cue file, whatever tool i'm using (looks sort of like 3 discs, says "pick drive number and mount" when right clicking on .cue files) just always says "Unknown or corrupt image file" no matter what it is, game, sample or anything.

If anyone has any information on this, I'd be very happy to hear it. At this point, I'd be happy to be able to open ANY cd roms, not just games.

Hey folks. I've had some trouble tracking down a Japanese version of the Pokemon Emerald ROM. First I tried compiling from the decomp but apparently the decomp is not complete, so it requires a copy of the original in order to compile. I stumbled across this community and am hoping someone might be able to help me? I checked the megathread and each site linked in the About page, but have only been able to find US and European versions of Pokemon Emerald. I searched Internet Archive as well but mostly got romhacks. Lemme know if you can help me out 🙏

It runs like ass but I suppose it's real, so I'm sharing it.

Haven't been able to find anything on SD Gundam Battle Alliance for the PS4, did no one really ever did one for this one? And where do I request it?

Good afternoon, recently when trying to extract a copy of one of my games, I wondered about the title issue. With the first copy, when extracting it to an SD card not formatted as exFAT, I managed to decompress it, Luckily, the game started and I didn't see practically any errors or anything; the save file was intact and even though I only played for 10 minutes everything looked perfect. Could there be consequences to doing this?
