So, apparently vim went down partially cos Nintendo shit. Where do I get romsets for older systems for archival purposes?
Download, box art, and screen shots unavailable at the request of Nintendo of America
Well that’s annoying.
That said you can find lots of archives here

I’ve been using a wonderful internet archival service, never fails, always has all the romsets.
Which one, and which sets?
I used internet archive and nearly poisoned my batocsra drive with bootlegs
I typically grab the 1g1r (1 game 1 rom) sets. There’s a really good collection there.
I have the feeling you are going through all steps of an emulation person. :D I’ve seen your previous posts, its kinda funny. (No bad faith by me, just thinking back to my days…)
I didn’t know links to Rom sites is allowed here. You can search for results of archive.org like with
mario site:archive.org
. But there are really amazing Rom sites, some of my favorites:Oki, thank you.
I used to use vimm but Nintendo happened :c
Vimm’s Lair? I just checked and the site is up
A good chunk of ROMs are ubdiwnloadable
I was just poking around on there and couldn’t find any that I couldn’t download. Do you have a specific game?
Try nes punch out. Or anything by Nintendo,
i am able to view and download without issues. I am located in the US if that matters.
Pretty sure it was Nintendo of america that did it, good to see vimm retrun :D
That’s horrible
I know. I used Vimm too, and still do for very certain stuff. Being in emulation scene since over
1520 years and only discovered Vimm last year, lol. This wouldn’t be the first major site we lose. Whatever happens, there will always be such sites. So don’t worry, Nintendo can’t fight entire world, nor want they.I know, I’m just pisses cos vimm had the best ui.
Sure, they only had up to 5th-6th gen devices but their ui was fucking excellent
Good riddance to that one txt file with all their Roms tho
