Roms Site - Plz help answer a question.

[Clod14]

My Brother Made a Rom's Site (im also involved in it) and no its not illegal.

I was wondering if Zombie Murder was able to add him as an "Affiliate" as he needs some people to come. (he will also add [ZM-SG] as an "Affiliate" of course.

if you dont know what a Rom site is; it is a site that has Tons of classic games

for example. Super nintendo, Nintendo 64, Sega, Mame, and MUCH more. hes done a lot. im just asking for people to come check out the site. Probably comment on some stuff aswell

 

(yes these games are playable on the computer)

 

you will get the idea there. :] Please answer back with a reply. and sorry if i posted this in the wrong section. (said "Offtopic")

 

 

Even if hes not able to become an affiliate. can people please visit the site just to check it out?

Ummm... there's loads of other ROM sites? why do you want to set this one up in particular? And no ROMS aren't illegal. That is, the unhacked ROMS. As long as you DO NOT distribute them, as in selling them, you will not be in trouble.

 

Just remember, they are free to download, so keep it that way.

For anyone who don't know what roms are, they are basically game files, for games based on classic consoles, such as the Atari, SNES, NES, Sega, Nintendo 64 etc. Basically you can play those games on your computer with an emulator.

 

Now personally I find nothing wrong with using emulators - it's only purpose for me is to be able to play classic games that are no longer available commercially.

 

Edit: I saw the PSP emulators, I recommend due to legal issues with sony, you do not put that on your site.

roms are not illegal as long you own the original game, i think.

PSP Emulators. are just to play

Clasic Games (as u stated) just on ur psp. :]

 

I added those btw. for example.

u can play Super nintendo on your PSP

or Sega

or Nintendo 64 (although slow)

or Nintendo and so on. ;]

 

(would that be considered illegal if u can play classic games through ur PSP?)

I dont think it would....?

i dont think that is illegal, because its just emulating the original console on another computer (psp, 360,, ps3, PC etc).
