Homebrew Apparently Nintendo is removing Games off of ROM websites

[Vieela]

I just searched for Leaf Green and Advance Wars and found quite a few places on the first page that still have them for download, though one site wanted to install a firefox extension but worked fine when I refused to allow it.

Same here. I downloaded some, but some came with errors. I don't know if it was because the VC Injection was bad, or if i did something wrong, or if the rom was faily. But it was a bit hard to find.

iirc, the GBA ROMset had a modified Pokemon Emerald with a custom intro

yeah that's kinda shitty...
usually there are "newer" versions (like a clean version) and romsets get kinda outdated.. with either missing some rare titles..

we at gbatemp (maybe on our kinda abandoned wikitemp) should create a page with lists of roms of every old console with their titles, checksums version and misc info...
we can't be "pwoned" by distribution or something like that..
why i am asking this.. as a way to thoose who own roms and sets and stuff, can verify they own the real deal..
the problem with storage is getting stuff corrupted and broken...
and would made easier to translators and romhack makers..
since i found out about checksums i really love to use them when i can.. i use emulators, flashcarts etc.. and when things are not working instead of downloading the file again and copy it again, i can checksum it and verify it's a bad download or bad copy etc (and when trying to troubleshoot i can rage at thoose guys who reply it's a corrupted file or something)

Try running it in a PC gba emulator or two first. Also, try verifying the checksum is of a proper release. Windows users can use this to add a checksum tag to the right click menu. (the contextconsole shell extension from the same site is also handy as it adds options to open a command prompt/elevated command prompt in explorer without having to hold down shift)

that's what i mean with my previous post..
we should have a list of info about the roms, checksums and whatnot..
theese roms will be harder to find, and we need to make sure when "our friends" try to get them, they can verify they got exactly what they did try to find...
i hate thoose custom intro roms or modified ones (there was a modified fire red that the boat dude told the player to buy the game or die, and everyone thought it was AP)

not enough storage

not enough storage

You should contact Linus about that PB...

not enough storage

You should upload those roms when the nintendogedden takes place.

Hell has broken loose.

WE NEED TO BUILD A WALL AROUND THE ROMS!

EDIT:
I'm sorry for that sucky joke.

Welp, glad I downloaded all of the Good sets when I had the chance.

Seriously guys, this is good for Big N. Luckily I got MH XX earlier.

Seriously guys, go out and buy the game yourself. Luckily I got MH XX earlier.

I edited my post. I don't support piracy, but I support keeping backups on the Web.
