Just passed 100GB of roms

Postby Hot Trout » Sun May 09, 2010 10:18 am

Last nights updates of the latest new section (which by the way is the Apple Pippin Section) has taken the new site total to over 104GB of roms, 164,000+ for 234 different systems. :shock: :shock: :shock:

I just thought it was worth mentioning. :mrgreen: 8-)

nicemo. Can't possibly be beaten on the number of roms any single site has for download (or at least not that I've found...)

I bet there are only emulators for half the systems with roms on the site... And I'm sure I'm overshooting with that guess!

You are right, there are only emulators for 10% of systems but that is simply because I have not started to work on the emulators section just yet. I am still working on the roms database, ratings, comments, reviews and pictures sections. This should be finished within the next week or so.

I can assure you all that once work starts on the emulators section, it will be the biggest, ever. ;)

Well, I look forward to it. Just try to includ Linux Native Emulators too please, I am not running windows so I can't play the damned games if there aren't any emulators for me... Oh, and I REFUSE to run WINE simply because my SELinux keeps going nuts with it on my lappy here, so I don't want to take any chances... and believe me, I need a new windows system quick simply because I have World of Warcraft to get back to...

I wish you would put up some complete sections for one-click downloading. I'm talking about the sections that have a lot of ROMs, but are still quite small, file size wise.

But single rom downloading is convenient too, in a different way.

This is just not possible unless people are prepared to pay for it due to the bandwidth use. I would love to offer this but simply cant.
