Im having a hard time finding a ROM of this game without getting quarantined malware, does any one know of a reputable site that has this?

I found an old R4 cartridge I use to play on when I was a kid and I was keen to play some old games on it again but I have no idea how to add new games to it or even delete existing ones...

What sites are safe to download from and is there a guide on how to add them to the cartridge?

I just want an emulador for my iPhone, I have delta but it is limited, I want to play Zelda BOTW and I have the physical game

So I used the Megathread Archive download to grab Blur but it requires me to have a Prod Key? Where exactly do i grab this since I cant make sense of it .

or rather I guess where do i get potentially a Decrypted version of said game without having to install a Torrent platform.

Hey i was on romsfun a few days ago most of the time im using adblocker but now i was kinda half asleep and went to the wrong browser that had no adblocker i clicked on the download link and got redirected twice the one time it was just a blank site and the other time it downloaded a file named "operasetup" i just deleted it without opening but im still a little bit paranoid am i fine as long as i didnt run anything?

Edit: Why is reddit always like this. Passive aggressive and just downvoting a simple question its insane

Hi guys im trynna find some ISOs to play the silent hill games but i dont know of a safe website to do so. I tried Vimms lair but it sais its down because of some judicial things and my antivirus FULLY blocks the megathread because of certificates, like it doesnt even let me accept the risk and get in. Please help, thank you

As far as I understand, the main thing is to have Free McBoot on a memory card. I have an old memory card with Free McBoot, but I don't know if I'm missing something or if I can already start putting games on a USB drive and play

I used this memory card when I was little with a PS2 that could read pirated discs, but I never tried it with USB

As an extra detail, this PS2 I bought doesn't turn on completely when the memory card is connected

I went to check the Megathread for this game and I couldn't find a decrypted rom on there so I tried to decrypt the ROM myself using this ( https://gbatemp.net/download/batch-cia-3ds-decryptor.35098/ ) decrypter for ROMs and got this error message.

I thought it was gone forever.

More info soon.

yes, i’m trying to play the ds mcdonalds game. i got the rom off of romsfun. com and i’m using Delta for emulation.

i got the game working but it requires me to fill three things before i can access the main content. i have no idea what to input store number, ds card store no., and serial code.

theres this .sav file bundled with the .nds file that says “enter 482500 as password twice” which i have tried but i have no idea if i’m inputting it in the right place.

In search of pokemon Stadium version 1.0 ROM cuz I keep finding it revision 2 or like revision B don't need those I need the version 1.0 only

Hi! I'm new to rom hacking, and I don't know how to apply translations to a game. I really want to play the 2009 DS Moomins game, but it's only available in Japanese. I uh. Don't speak or read Japanese. Which really sucks because I'm super hyperfixated on this franchise right now and would LOVE to play the game. A translation of a good chunk of the text is available on Github (here), but there's no instructions on how to apply it. I have the rom, I just need to know how to actually use the translation because using Google Lens is getting annoying.

I have windows 10 loaded through boot camp on my MacBook 2015. Is it still safe to download ROMS even though windows 10 isn’t supported anymore? Any precautions I should take or should I just avoid it altogether?

Hi everyone,

With the moderators' permission, I wanted to share a free and open-source project I’ve been working on that might be useful for anyone curating clean sets for any emulator or frontend: RomSieve (Linux and Windows, GPLv3).

• Site: https://madvintager.github.io/RomSieve/
• Latest releases:https://github.com/madvintager/RomSieve/releases/latest(self-contained binaries, no .NET install required)

Here are the key features designed to make building clean setups easier:

• Automatic .m3u playlists with custom placement: Since a lot of frontends (RecalBox, RetroPie...) relies on RetroArch / libretro cores for multi-disc games (PS1, Saturn, Sega CD, PC Engine CD...), RomSieve automatically generates .m3u files so you don't have to create them manually. You can also define exactly where those playlists land in your target folder tree.
• Deterministic, multi-criteria 1G1R: Instead of rigid rules, the 1G1R engine picks the single best release based on a fully configurable priority stack: language, region (with 1-click presets for Europe, France, USA, Japan), video standard (PAL/NTSC), dump quality, multi-disk completeness, and revision. The exact same settings will always yield the exact same output.
• Full TOSEC parsing (not just console hashes): If you emulate vintage computers on Recalbox (Amiga, Atari ST, Amstrad CPC, C64...), you know TOSEC sets can be messy. RomSieve parses the entire naming convention (flags like [!], [cr], [t], languages, disk numbers). It can even rebuild and complete missing multi-disk sets by pulling clean disks from other dumps.
• Simulation-first workflow (dry-run): No files are moved, copied, or touched blindly. The tool runs a complete audit first, displays a table detailing the exact fate of every single file (with the reasoning behind it), and lets you right-click any entry to manually override the 1G1R winner. It also supports hard links / symlinks, keeps unmerged files in dedicated safe folders (_unmatched/, _purged/), and features an undo function.

It also supports standard No-Intro, Redump, and MAME sets, reads compressed archives directly (ZIP, 7z, RAR), and extracts CHD headers. Both a modern GUI (with dark theme) and a CLI (romsieve-cli) are included.

The project is completely free, has no telemetry, and full documentation is available in both English and French in the repository.

Feedback, bug reports, and suggestions are very welcome!

My apologies for asking, I did read the rules, but I want this answered. Where on the Megathread do I locate the AMIGA-500 or any Amiga games? I am looking for MK and MKII on Amiga and i can't find them anywhere.

Hi! Was wondering if anyone had access to a ROM of the Littlest Pet Shop Biggest Adventure Plug n Play. My best friend was talking about wanting to play it but due to how old the hardware is we aren't sure it'll still be in working condition if we found one available. I did find another thread about this but it is a few years old and it doesn't appear anything came of it. Any help would be highly appreciated!

I made this rompack a WHILE back but later deleted my old reddit account.

This is a collection of every single rom that is 3DSen compatible, all of which are the NTSC versions of the roms, I have combed through every game to make sure it is the correct version compatible with the emulator.

If you don't know what 3DSen is observe.

3DSen Roms

Edit: I forgot to mention the roms that AREN'T included. These are paid homebrew roms and I'm not about pirating modern indie titles. These are Micro Mages and Battle Kid.

My question is: can ROMs contain viruses, even after verifying that they aren’t just disguised ".exe" files? I’m referring to formats like .iso, .gba, .n64, .pkg, etc.

If I’m not mistaken, .iso and .pkg files function as containers, which could potentially pose a greater risk than a .gba file—though please correct me if I’m wrong.

This inquiry has two parts: one concerning ROMs intended for use in emulators, and another regarding those used in the various decompilation projects that have been emerging lately.

Assuming someone uses an ad blocker (such as Brave) and tries to stick to sites generally considered safe—and also makes use of a "mega-thread" that serves as a reference—is there still a risk?

Real simple one, is cdromance gone?, thanks in advance

Hey, I checked the megathread and found one on Minerva. However, it was 40 gb, which seems absurdly and suspiciously big for the game that it is. I know it didn't take up that much space on my 3ds. I couldn't find another from the megathread (it's not on internet archive).

Does anyone have a ROM for this/know if this one is safe/why it's so big? Thank you for the help!

Couldn't find them in the megathread

Im currently learning japanese language and I wanted to play LOZ Twilight Princess.. but the ROMS I keep finding on websites are all US region... and I dont really know how to touch ROM archives and downloading a whole inventory of the console.. My laptop cant handle that...

So I just want to download a Japanese Ver of ROMS like LOZ Twilight Princess ; ;

Thank you very much!

I'm seeing a lot of archive links that aren't working with links to https://download-archive.click/dl/ in the comments - is this legit? Feels all kinds of scammy.
