Matt Young 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2008 My 360 red ringed on me and I'll be sending it in whenever the coffin arrives. All the games I have for older systems have been played to death. I figured I would enjoy some Super NES ROMs while my 360 is out of commission. I downloaded the zSNES emulator, but here's the problem- every site I go to, when i try to download a ROM, it says the site cannot offer a download because the games are ESA protected. Okay, then why have the fucking site in the first place? Does anyone know where I can download some games? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2008 Matt, I would assume you're looking for titles like Super Mario World, Super Metroid, Zelda 3, etc.? I know those are all ESA protected. I'll try to remember to hook you up when I get home today...shoot me a PM if I aven't done it by tomorrow. Tell me what you need and I'll see if I have it.

Golgo 13 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2008 Everything I have bookmarked. coolrom.com romhustler.net emuv2.com emuhustle.net rombomb.com snesorama.us Or just say fuck it and grab a torrent. Take a look here if you're looking for a smaller batch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tekcop 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2008 I use Edgeemu.com. They require registration, but I have a shitty email for stuff like that anyways. The only problem is that when you go to download, say, Super Mario World, you get a .rar file with every version, traslation, and/or hack made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2008 I downloaded a torrent with every SNES rom ever in it. Just do that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Young 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2008 I'm no good with torrents. But yes, I've been trying to download mainly first party Nintendo games like Mario. Some of the links posted, I have been to, but quite a few, I have not. Thanks for posting them. I'll check 'em out. And Lushus, thanks for the offer. I'm looking forward to that.

Matt Young 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2008 Anyone know how can use my wired 360 controller for zSNES? I used to have an adapter for a PS1 controller that worked fine, but it's gone. The PC detects the 360 controller, but won't let me use it for the emulator. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2008 unless they update zSNES (and who knows, they might have, I haven't checked), I don't think you can use the 360 controller. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Young 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2008 Thanks. Geedorah. It's working now. So basically, most of the good games are ESA protected. I sent messages to Black Lushus, but since I keep finding more missing from the list, here's a running tally of what I'm looking for: All Mario games- All Stars, World, Paint, Kart, RPG, etc. Legend of Zelda Super Metroid Kirby Final Fantasy III Earthbound Super Punch-Out!!!

AntiLeaf33 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2008 I have Super Metroid and Mario RPG for zSNES. I'm at work now, but I got them at 3roms.com Mario RPG has froze up on me once, but I was playing Super Metroid for a good 3 hours last night without a hitch.

Kristianna 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2008 I'd try RomNation.net if I were you. That's where I get all my NES, Genesis and SNES games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2008 the problem is, most Nintendo first party games are under that ESA deal no matter where you look. I'm almost positive RomNation has the same thing going on. I usuallyy use them or CoolRoms.com. Kristi, did you recently use RomNation? Again, I haven't DLed a ROM in at least a year so things may have changed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Young 0 Report post Posted February 15, 2008 Apparently, Killer Instinct and Spider-Man/Venom: Maximum Carnage are protected as well. Wha determines which games are protected? Anyway, Lushus, I will be home all night. I'm not sure what you and the wife have planned, but assuming you are available, how should we go about doing this? I'd imagine it wouldn't take long since the files are small. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-DeN- 0 Report post Posted February 15, 2008 I agree with the posters up above--gaffling a "full" (relative term) set is alot easier and less time-consuming than hunting around for individual files, but you can try this: http://roms.theoland.net/index.php I have no idea what it is or where it came from, so I'm not vouching for it--but it's massive. Did a quick test and it's up and running, though a cursory glance at the SNES section reveals a fucking mess. There's like every version of every game ever made--all unzipped, and it's a pain to navigate. But if you want some shit it's probably there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
