And as far as "that one site" goes, people can still get games from it, but it's a bit of hassle :creep:
It sucks that Nintendo and their legal team are fighting such a frivolous battle, but they won't win. I can promise you that.

What pisses me off is their blatant refusal to allow their customers a legal and easier method in which to purchase said games digitally. Aside from the ones that have licensing issues, there is literally nothing holding them back from allowing people to download them. Maybe that's why SNES games are supposedly next in line for Switch Online, and if they are, I would be more than happy to pay for the otherwise sub par substandard service. But until they offer SNES, N64, GBA, etc for download, Nintendo and their lawyers can suck it with their ROM site litigation.

Besides there are a lot of ROMs that are not available in any form in current media, how the fuck are we supposed to get those?

Again, I encourage everyone reading to search for full romsets of consoles and back them up in one of your drives. Most likely torrents will be the way to share ROMs in the near future.


Anyone whos interested in owning roms should have all those roms by now. I had lots of roms from 20 years ago. Nes,snes,gb,gbc,n64 dont take much space. GBA does not take much either. NDS and 3ds does. gamecube/wii and wii U will. The problem is gonna be getting the new roms. Why has nintendo not attacked that iso site is beyond me. They dont host switch roms but they do have google drive links with terabytes of roms.... Also that eye site, they have lots of roms also.
Users on this very site used to say i was a moron for archiving roms even when they cant be used yet. Then again those user cant even think ahead 1 year in their own existance...

Anyways Stay downloading my friends. Oh and dont store roms in the cloud. thats just stupid... Use High quality 25/50/100 Gig BD-r Discs for long term storage.
