I got a torrent a while back that had like 900 nes games.

I have a home theater media computer hooked up to my bigscreen in the living room, it's pretty cool with a wireless gamepad [Big Grin]

I just had my Xbox modded. It has NES, Super NES, N64, arcade, a bunch of hand held systems, Neo Geo and other old systems games on it. I have thousands of old school games to play and it was cheap to have done. If your into the old games it might be the way to go.

The emulator is the program to run the game, and the game is a rom.

I have it on my computer at home and I also have for my gameboy ds. I love that game. I've beat it so many times already. But the story rules!!

ok so RockNES works but it won't open the file i downloaded that has 600 games. Its a .torrent file? what am i doing wrong?
 
Posted by 68_428_Fastback (Member # 1482) on :
 
If any has the rom for Zelda can you please send it to me? i am having trouble here. RockNES opens and everyhting but the torrent file won't open. All i want is ZELDA!

Paper boy 1 and 2 is in it. I can't get Metroid to work, i couldn't get Ghostbusters to work either but i downloaded another file and that one does work, Jaws works, theres some other games that don't work that i want to play it says "Invalid NES Header" i don't know what that means...

Paperboy doesn't work either. Metroid works with another emulator but that emulator sucks compared to the one i am using.
