KiVan, do you plan making an old roms section where you keep the other 700 or so roms?
Or you don't have enough bandwidth available ?
If you could, it would be great since dgemu is now down and they had lots of broken links anyway.

i think the bandwidth would be the problem there plus the site might get too cloged cause everyone is looking for the entire rom sets arent they, except us guys who found this site some time ago hehehehe, but good idea though

It would be nice but I agree with KiVan, there'll be much complication

Besides, there's a Request forum. If anyone needs help looking for some roms, everybody can give KiVan/Alexander a hand or they can themselves fill the request for him/her

This site is great as it is

this site should be for the guys who have been from the start and have got the roms from then so they should have them all, and as they say there is a request area

I've only been here for 6 or so months and with a 56k connection, downloading an hour a day, only some days a week; well... you must be getting the picture

I found this site in gba etc forums, abut the time it started, and since then, i stopped going to dgemu, because i alredy have the best old roms anyway.
It would be nice to have the whole romset, though.

Hi.

I too have alot of Roms (Thks to Kivan site and some others) I managed to increase my collection of Roms.

Now putting up 2GB of Roms is like near crazy unless one is going to fork out the Bill not to mention the legal thing which many ISPs wont allow.

So I did was I downloaded a small yet powerful program Lite Server.
Then people contacted me for access and I gave them a Username and Password and kept the server on for a while so others can share or even Upload their Roms(not necessary though) which where missing in my collection.
Of course this could blog down ones system..
That could be one idea..

Of course this isnt like the crap one gets at Kazza where people put up GBA roms as exe format (with virus) .. and some crappy sites out there with tonnes of popups (again infected with html trojan code) which I came across in some other Forums..


Take Care

    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
