If you really want to do that, make sure you use CHD and RZV to conserve as much space as possible, and maybe just stick to US (or PAL if you are European) rom sets, preferably with no duplicates, otherwise there is going to be a lot of junk. Anyway, somebody told me maybe a terabyte or two for everything up to Dreamcast. The Sony consoles are both gigantic though, PS2 even moreso than PS1

Personally I've only ever done something like this for the cartridge consoles (they're tiny), SEGA CD, and TurboGrafx-CD

>PC Enchads and Mega Chads have no beef, both are awesome consoles with awesome libraries
Can confirm, the CD add-ons are my two favorite systems

Plus I prefer chicken over beef

I'll be honest, I don't really go there often anymore. Reason being I have full romsets for all of my cartridge games, and for CD-based games I prefer CHD's as they save a ton of space, which CD Romance does not have. It's still a great site especially for pre-patched roms and translations, but otherwise there are faster and more efficient ways to collect retro games.

Hey anon what USB stick are you using, I know some TV boxes can be finicky with those, it may also be the OTG adapter itself. I had the same problem with my Fire TV Stick but eventually sort of became a non-issue when I switched to CHD's instead of bin and cue which take up more space. Possibly /g/ can help

It's fine for beginners but ultimately anon should really just get full sets and CHD's, will save a lot of time as well as space compared to .bin and .cue. They are good for rom hacks and translations though

Delete those and use Retro Game Champion rom sets instead, has US regions of every game and only the English-friendly JP titles. For CD games always go for CHD rom sets (or RVZ in the case of GameCube). SEGA CD and TurboGrafx-CD shouldn't be too huge but PS1 is going to be massive no matter what.

I switched to full rom sets about a year or two ago, way better than downloading games individually and also makes more sense considering cartridge sets are so tiny.

I like the layout and it has a nice selection, but the archive is better for a couple of reasons, mainly that it has full rom sets as well as CHD's which take up way less space. Nice for beginners and I also like that it has pre-patched hacks and translations.
