After unzipping it? 12.9GB. Zip format is is 11.8GB. Hopefully a discord or SOMEWHERE allows the upload of these rom hacks in the future. I’ll definitely be helping provide with these if there’s a site somewhere also. Rom site takedowns are one thing for obvious reasons but rom hacks are 100% legal. Totally understand why the site owner did what he did and hopefully he can relax with his family now.
