![]() Of course MAME followed, and is an incredible program - FOR FREE no less! Many games are emulated near perfect. I remember years back when I first loaded Sparcade (an older emu) and was amazed to find a pixel perfect version of Galaxian. also roms are good to check out games that maybe you have never playedMame rocks! I consider the distribution of roms and the development of emulators one of the biggest things to hit this hobby. i have an xarcade right in front of my 32 inch lcd to play my favorite arcade games. Not to mention screen grabs of your fave games are great to have. but it'll never be what it was, and I think emulation is a damn good alternative to not being able to play the old arcade greats. The arcade scene I evolved with is dead, except for maybe in Japan and a few other places. I don't see anything wrong with ROMS if one isn't going to burn them onto a DVD-R and then try to profit off of them by selling something that isn't their's, and often times it's the only way to play a game. I want to invest time, money and an auction snipe on Ebay for to add into my collection of games. As for console stuff though, I use emulation/ROMS for trying out games and after about 20 minutes or so I'll decide if it's something I actually had to put away my three credit cards so I wouldn't use them and continue getting into debt the way most of America is it would seem. MarkI only collect/play ROMS for the arcade stuff, since finding every PCB I want of particular games is either damn near impossible, or excessively expensive beyond my Ca$h Money and procured Money Order means. I've found some Japanese Sega System 3 ROMS (SMS), and some for games from Brazil and Europe. Anyway, how do the rest of you feel about ROMS? I refuse to pay for them (that wouldn't even be legal, I don't think).
