You have to own the originals of the games to be allowed to download roms for an emulator.
(a great rom site is <no ROM site links, please. Unless they're legal now that all IDSA roms are down? -sponge>)
Did you ever wonder if your mum gave dad a blo*jo* right before she kissed you? Good night!

If you want retail games, you're on your own there, depending on who's interpetation of the law, it might even be illegal even if you own the original game. But I'm not here to preach ethics.

Otherwise, there are large collection of freeware and public domain games, www.zophar.net springs to mind.

Ahh, I see. I guess that would explain the lack of links for emulator games when I did a search.

Thanks for the responses, and the freeware link.
