But I'm not an expert, I usually just go to thrift stores and hope they have something cool laying around.

Admit it OP, you just made this thread because you were bored.

This especially since they give you all kinds of goodies along with the dos roms

None, unless you don't mind paying massively inflated prices.

Otherwise your best bet is to hit up yard sales big time. Get out early and hit as many as you can. Even if you don't see games for sale, ask if they have any inside that they would sell you. You wouldn't believe how many grandmas have their kids' old game collection somewhere in the storage room, covered in dust and waiting for a lucky buyer like you.

You can also try flea markets but in my experience you'll be beaten to the punch by resellers. They walk around the market before it opens to the public and buy up any expensive games to resell at their own booth for eBay prices.

The lengths you tards will go to just to use emuparadise. There are MANY alternatives out there for both full sets and individual downloads. Emuparadise is also rife with 20 year old disc rips and bad dumps.

He was referring to that the IP is still accessible if you redirect it in your hosts file. Thats also worthless now since on top of not paying the providers bill, the SSL is fucked now too so you can't go on.

The only thing that should be preserved from there was all the dreamcast homebrew. A lot if it has disappeared from the internet now. Someone should archive them but not me, I'm too retarded to figure out that script workaround thing.
