Re: Wii Legend of Zelda £19.99
 

Hi Gareth,

Just wondering if you would know where to get old saga games? Also old arcade games like phoneix, 1944 (battlefield), ku-fu master and mr do's castle? :tu:

Re: Where to get old games?
 

newguy, I've split this from the "Wii Legend of Zelda £19.99" thread, as it's nothing to do with that.


If you have a Wii, you can download old Nintendo, SEGA, & PC Engine (TurboGrafx) games for the Wii Virtual Console.


You can get free emulation software for Windows etc., to run SEGA games, Nintendo games, Amiga games, arcade games, and so on.

However, it's copyright theft to download the game ROM images etc. unless you still own the original.

So no links to ROM downloads etc. please.

Re: Where to get old games?
 

Like Matt says, there's the copyright to think of, but I'll just say that I've heard that if you search the bit torrent and newsgroup sites for MAME you'll get arcade and Sega ROMs too.

Not that I'd know cause I don't do that sort of thing :angel:

Re: Where to get old games?
 

Thanks Matt D for the advice and I was looking to pay rather than download for free. I have found one place where you pay $50 and get a cd sent with 3500 old arcade games. I'm just going to check it properly from work before i send off the postal order. Thanks again. :tu:

For $50 I'm guessing this might be a non-official CD.

Re: Where to get old games?
 

Are you wanting the old SEGA games for the PC?

Re: Where to get old games?
 

I'll be checking that out via work next time I'm in and I'll get back to you. It looks official but then again maybe it's a con. :confused:

I don't think I can get them on the pc as there are old arcade type games. Except for the saga game I'm trying to hunt down as I just forget the name of it which I played years ago. Fantastic game which you played as an egg which collected various tools and swapped items to complete a mission.
I have found a place in the US where you send $50 away and get a cd when them on (old arcade games) - but I need to check if it's a con or not 1st before sending off the postal order.:tu:
