ROMS and Emulators

Post by Avestan »

Anyone know a good place to get some ROM's? I had the itch to play some old console games and some others that I never got to play. The ones I am really interested in are:

Shining Force 2 and 3 (There may be 3 parts to 3?)
Military Madness
Final Fantasy 3
Dragon Warrior

I really wanted to try to get a hold of the shining force games, but those suckers have really high demand and all I get is porn frontends every time I try to search for ROM's.

This subject has been brought up at least two other times here in recent months. Do a search and read those threads.

I personally have found Usenet to be a good source. Which console were those you listed for?

All those are easily found at http://www.edgeemu.com/
The only rom that will be a problem is Shining Force 3. I have been unable to find that rom anywhere ( haven't tried usenet :P ). It seems like Shining force 3 is really 3 different smaller games, that were done for Game Gear before getting refreshed and united for Saturn. I did find the ones for Game gear, but I just can't play them, they make my eyes bleed.

irc is the best place to download roms. most emulator sites wont post them because they suck bandwidth and nintendo/sega go sue happy when they find rom sites.
