Complete rom sets thrown onto a flash card. I slowly delete the least played ones when a new game gets released. Very tedious searching title ID's in 3dsdb. I wish scene release file names were just named as the game title sometimes :(

onthe topic of piracy, if my mega account got closed for piracy, would they contact my ISP? because it did get shut down

technically yes, but thats more in the copyright holders area
and your isp would have to cooperate, so as long as your isp isnt comcast you should be fine

basically
possible but very unlikely

there is also the 3 (or 6?) strike system running which most isp's follow too

Hundreds. Full ROM sets FTW.

This. Pretty sure I DL'd good sets for SNES, Genesis, and the Turbografx/PCE all at the same time/

Before that, the most at once was probably when I bought a CD with every SNES rom on it (at the time anyway, it was well before the SNES stopped production) so I could copy them to floppies to run on my MGH and Smart Bros. I also got another one with some later games, both SNES and Genesis, but I'm not 100% sure which disc had more total on it.

Could you check with current GoodSNES of your CD, if you have it, there might be a few missing ROMs from GoodSNES, that you have...

I tend not to download a lot of games at one time, usually only 1-3 in a day, mostly because my internet is slow most of the time

Why so long as your ISP isn't Comcast? Do they bend over in fear of being sued or something?

    @Xdqwerty, To be fair, I have no idea.

    Likely because they are not as economic compared to us.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, so their only way of getting money is thru scams?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Exactly.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Why not they just mine Monero instead of scamming vulnerable people? If they have a decent machine they can hit a jackpot at any given time.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Bitcoin on the other hand, requires a very powerful mining rig and is more costly.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, different cultures so probably they have their reasons
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yes a $2,000 rig for $5 a day
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Or could be in correlation to laws.

    Technically, cryptocurrencies aren't illegal, as long as you don't use it for criminal activity. If you sign up with an exchange, and that they get a tip from law enforcement, they have the right to freeze your assets.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, Yea I heard law is vastly different there
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Nigeria's central bank did make crypto illegal before, until last year they lifted the ban. Always make sure to check before you exchange. ;)

    @SylverReZ, speaking of crypto i remember reading about a guy who spend like 10 grand bitcoin on a couple pizzas (when bitcoin wasnt as worthy as nowadays)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's mental. If he had saved up when Bitcoin sky-rocketed in price, then he might've become the next Jeff Bezos for all I know.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, he couldnt know the price was gonna skyrocket anyway
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Then it dropped sometime in 2022, 2021 was when it really went up in price.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, I also recall watching a video of some failed games with their own crypto currency or smth like that, lemme link it to you (it's in spanish tho)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, I remember that. Didn't Steam ban games with NFTs before somehow devs managed to circumvent it? Think EA tried to dabble in NFTs too.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Glad to hear people realise that NFTs aren't worth it these days. They realise that they're JPEGs hosted on a file-hosting site like AWS or Google Drive.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Atleast it has captions
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Meta also tried to create their own crypto, but that fell through.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Was called Libra, they had around 100 employees and wanted to hire more near to end of the year.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, idk why facebook tried to do that metaverse thing if mmo games already existed before
