Gaming Rapidshare blocking ROM downloads?

[Raestloz]

Trust me, saying those things might lit up flamethrowers

 

[Mentz]

FileFactory,RapidShare and Megaupload has deleted a lot of roms 'couse they are illegal...
They improved some app to find illegal and legal stuff uploaded...

 

[JPdensetsu]

lol...

I don't have any trouble finding other places to download the roms, I'd just never seen them blocked before

I see it somethimes

500 POSTS

Can someone ban this cretin? All I've seen him do is post on threads to say he's trying to get 500 posts. He's a complete waste of bandwidth.

At a glance I thought Mentz was me

I need to change my avatar pretty soon........

I know the site you're running over to to use that has that nice spreadsheet like setup where it expands and gives the info, general details, and the three links to RS, FF, and MU and it's fantastic most the time.

Sadly a few times wankers will rat out the links which sucks, but it tends to be the popular new stuff to be jerky. Not exactly sure how the hell I found it but it's bookmarked. I used to be well connected and had FTP access to a couple places in the pre-DS days and I miss that.

The site I use has FileFactory, Qshare, and UploadedTo, and i havent come across a game yet that has been blocked on any of them.

Meh....there are many different places to get ROMs, let Rapidshare do whatever they want.....doesn't slow me down one bit.

So, although we all know many places to get ROMs from, all our flashcards contain is homebrew, and backups of games we actually own, right guys?

Naturally! We only know about these websites because we hunt them down like digital vigilantes. We're like Batman, collectively.

And we occasionally use them because we're too lazy to copy the numerous carts we have purchased with our money (and therefore legally own) by hand.

Rapidshare isn't good anyway because of their weird security questions and limits.

My fav rom site is colourful and all. Has a nice interface and all.

But hell, google is your friend eh. Type game name, add the word torrents and your off and going.

If you can't actually find something that is clearly new and popular you have my sympathies for your single digit IQ

The only thing I have never been able to locate online, is my virginity. But it was never of any real use to me anyway

That happened with TWEWY, so when I had to re-download all my games, I had to get it off an alternative website. ROM websites are so easy to find. The one I use has an orange theme and has uploads to RapidShare, Mega Upload and File Factory. It's much better because they're as quick to upload games as GBAtemp is to mention it.

There is nothing to worry about people. Someone mentioned it earlier, but it is so easy to pirate nowadays compared to 10 years ago, back in the days of downloading SNES games one at a time and such and such. Now, we have games on (or before) release day, most of the time, there are multiple sources and dear lord of pircay, thank you for torrents.

It's actually harder to find stuff that is slightly older, example, I have never been able to find the last KOF game for Xbox because it's not so popular, also, I don't know much about Japanese pirate sites, but the DS scene has nothing to fear.

of course! *bursts out laughing*

 

[Raestloz]

Seems like you guys had trouble with TWEWY, I'm glad I didn't

What can be very difficult to find, are Japanese games for the original Xbox. It was a largely forgotten console there. So few people share its games.

that -GENERIC ROM HOSTING SITE'S- roms are sometimes compressed with like 10 ZIP files and crap. >->

Hmmm..... XBOX is not as popular as PS2 in Japan, too. Maybe because XBOX is American?
