i think i found this site when i first got my R4. I had no idea on how to use it so I looked at YouTube videos. Some vid has probably led me to this site.

A long long time ago when gba emulation was still in it's infancy . This was the place for fzero (jap) etc.. At the time I was a mod over at emuxhaven and was looking for the next best thing.. Gba was it got heavy into the irc and the rest is long in the past

i needed some help with a GBA game back in 2006, found the site. Lurked for about a year, made an account. Then for some reason stopped using the site, came back in 2008 only to realise i forgot my login info, so went and made this account :3

Found it back in 2007 with my good old R4.

Can't remember if I've posted here already, but I needed MKWii hacking help, and everyone here knew the answers to my questions. I browsed the forums for a couple of weeks before signing up. I'm anticipating 1,000 posts before summer starts.

Don't really remember when and how I found the site, but I think I joined when I wanted to ask for some in help in ROM hacking.

I was researching on DS since February (I think) and found this site on one of my Google sessions. When I finally decided to buy my DSi, I made an account.

Bought my first flashcart a few months after.

=snippy= anybody?

ain't there anyone who found gbaTemp by snip!? (errr.sorry I didnt read the whole topic and comments) - (Im gonna read now)

You can't talk about rom sites, neither post their names. We can talk about ROM emulation though.

I needed help with savsender and I had been lurking here for a few days before that.

I actually found it in 2006. Then I wanted to find out whats wrong with my flashcart (it was a crappy clone

) and I decided to make an account in 2011. Man I used to be such a troll and n00b...

 

[Frogman]

first off Im sorry :S didn't know that. second r*m* WAS a rom site.it no longer gives out r*ms anymore so it can't be considered a rom site I think.(but now come to think of it , it does includes some gba roms ...only some though) anyway. thanks for the warning. Ill edit my post

it took down plenty of Nintendo (and all DS) ROMs, but still have Nintendo 64, Playstation, GameCube, Dreamcast, Sega Saturn, and retro ROMs and ISOs.

If my memory serves me correctly, I joined around the time Waninkoko's first Wii backup loader came out. I was a regular visitor to TehSkeen (best homebrew news website.... R.I.P.) and I belive they linked to here in one of their posts. I followed that link to see if I could get help making it work since I was having some issues with it.

Even with the crap speed, long load times and poor compatibility, I'll never forget the joy I had the day my PAL copy of Mario Kart showed up flickering and in black and white on my NTSC Wii

Moved to here from QJ a few years ago at the same time as another bunch of members of that site.

Lurked for a while and was then convinced to actually join by Urza.

Found it a long time ago through general searchings on the internet I think. Probably due to my frustrations as a mod for mxemu (a fork of gbxemu). That must've been '05-ish because most of my posts on mxemu were resounding 'NO's to noobs asking if there was a DS emulator.

I didn't become a member until brakken went nuts and tehskeen started to die (only stayed for the GC-scene anyhow).

I didn't start posting until recently when N-philes stopped being interesting.
