What's your favorite rom site /vr/?
Emuparadise here.

I like that they provide premade eboots

>> No.2764961

Archive is the only choice for me.

I got a lot of mine of limewire back in the day. More recently when upgrading my collection and getting games for more systems I've just downloaded torrents of completed rom sets. Going through individually is a pain and why not just get everything?

I I've used emuparadise for CD based games like Sega CD a few times though and it was decent.

>> No.2764973

Premade eboots are always a plus. I also use theisozone. Not as user friendly as emuparadise and you can't even search through the address bar, which annoys me.

Also, there was once a side called superromworld but now it down. I loved that side.

My old favorite was a place called "SNESORAMA" they got scared or some shit about one of the CISPA bills passing or something and wiped their forum.

Fucking retards.

Emuparadise and the archive.

>>2764983
I remember that place. It's up again, but since they fucking wiped everything, nobody has came back and nobody contributes either. If they weren't so fucking retarded, that wouldn't have been an issue given that a lot of shit that's hard to find use to be on there pretty easily.

Do you guys mean the internet archive?
How do they get away with that anyway? Arent they like a non profit organization? Do companies really not care about them sharing all their shit?

They have a cable that goes from their router through a bunch of time portals that lead to the past and are connected to their servers, so you're actually accessing the internet from the past.

If anything, I hate premade eboots because I'm anal about the consistency of XMB icons and backgrounds.

RIP undergroundgamer

I usually just torrent a full rom-set of whatever platform I wanna play. If they're larger files (e.g., PS1 games) I use the partial download feature in torrent client to quickly and easily get the ones I want. Way better than fucking around with xXx-Emulator-Base-xXx and typing in a bunch of captchas or w/e

I got my rompacks from emuparadise and internet archive. as far as I know, those are the best sources right now.

theromdepot has a decent collection but it's not comprehensive. I like that there's manuals though.

>> No.2765138

Never fucked with rom sites in the 2000s. I just pirated collections and never really emulated any cd based games.

These days emuparadise is the best selection and user experience I've found. And the eboot selection is beyond awesome. Always the first site I check..

What I do now, Is I have eboot editor homebrew on my psp, and I just edit out all the shit I don't care for. I usually create my own icons if I plan on having the game on my psp for a long time.

I love Emuparadise too but fuck, i wish their MAME roms worked.

Then again, i am too stupid to setup mame so i can't play anything that goes after 1999
