   Complete roms collection with fast bandwith

   You just have to register and get full access to an exhaustive list of roms. They post a report of antivirus scan, never see that before. Only the emulators are missing.

   👍 Pros:    Full of roms|Security disclaimer and report

   👎 Cons:    Need to create an account|No emulators|Anyone can upload

• GPD Win Max 2021 just arrived - best standalone emulator for each system?

  Check out RetroBat. It uses EmulationStation as the frontend and comes pre-packaged with all kinds of emulators; kinda like RetroPie but for Windows. It uses RetroArch as well as standalone emulators. Source: over 2 years ago

• LaunchBox or Batocera for a PC emulation box?

  If you're familiar with batocera stick with it. If you're more comfortable in windows use the windows unofficial batocera (that the real batocera team tweets support for). It's called retrobat. Find it here: http://retrobat.ovh/. Source: about 3 years ago

• Help!

  I do not believe Xenia requires a BIOS, haven't messed with it in years, it was pretty terrible the last time I tried it. Short of buying a faster internet connection no. You might find the games you're looking for on theromdepot it's usually much faster than Internet Archive, but they don't have everything (requires you to make a free acc). Source: over 1 year ago

• Retro emulator console

  There's a ton of them, some easier to access than others. https://theromdepot.com/ is fast and has complete sets for NES SNES and Genesis, and allows ftp access for batch downloads, it does requires a free account though. https://vimm.net/ is slower, dosen't allow ftp access, but they have a large archive, and don't require an account. https://archive.org/ has most everything but it's a chore to sort through...

• Picked this up at a local game store today for $24 CAN. After playing PoOT I'm kinda hooked on them, gonna order FoMT off of Amazon soon

  After you have your emulator of choice installed you have to download the rom for the game you want to play. My go to site for that the last few years has been the rom depot. Source: over 2 years ago
