yeah, check gog out. i just sent dragelx 3 torrents for games he requested, im just waiting to hear back from him that they are downloaded so that i can stop seeding them.
PLEASE SEE THE NOTE AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST FOR IMPORTANT FREE GOG GAME INFO!!!and if there is a console or handheld system that you like, let me know. i am going to start posting the emulators for both PC and Android.
and for each one, i will post the ENTIRE library of games from 0001 to zzzzz, with every version, hack, copy, and translation, including all translations for every game that people are currently working on, making those gems that never left japan playable in full english for us. add to that the full spanish, french, portugese, italian and many other languages that games have been translated into.
I will begin posting these soon, starting with the most requested, and moving down. Let me know if there is a system you remember and want, and I will make sure it gets posted in the first round.
So far, only the NES library has been finalized, so if you click the spoiler, you can see exactly how many and of what type of games are available in the library.

Total File Size for NES Game Library-----------704 MB
2.
SNES --(Super Nintendo Entertainment System)
----- 2,009 Games (at present)
Total File Size for SNES Game Library---------1.8 GB (approximately *1)
3.
GB & GBC --(Gameboy and Gameboy Color)
-----2,029 Games
Total File Size for GB & GBC Game Library-----570 MB
NOTES: *1- I am still adding new translations and finding new obscure and home made games for this system, so the numbers will increase before they are posted for download. Currently the game library is 1.8 GB but I have 1.15GB of translated games that I am searching through, and am still finding games that don't exist in my game library, so I expect the final total to be at or above 2 GB total for the SNES library.
Keep in mind that all these games are beyond simple to set up and play. basically you just put the games in a folder, (you can leave them zipped for most emulators)and start the emulator program. then click file or game or whatever the menu says, and select Load Game. then pick the one you want from your folder, and you are playing.
you can save anywhere, even if the game does not have a save feature. there are 10 save slots per game, and you can even save during a boss fight. the saves and loads are INSTANTANEOUS. So you have no excuse for messing up, lol. You can even set some of the emulators to auto-save every 30 seconds or whatever you type in.
Also, 90% of the Emulators have a menu for you to enter Game Genie, Pro Action Replay, Codebreaker or whatever type of codes for infinite lives, ammo, money, etc. and you can turn them off and on at will, DURING your game, and once entered, they are saved, so you only have to enter them once.
You can also use any joystick or controller or even just the keyboard and sometimes the mouse to control the games. All controls are completely customizable. If you are playing on the android, you can use a controller, a pop or slide out keyboard, if your phone has one, or just use the emulators built in controller that shows up onscreen, if you prefer. (you dont have to have the controller onscreen if you dont want it)
So, all-in-all, once I am done uploading these systems and emulators, you will all have access to nearly 1 MILLION (At least HALF a MILLION) Retail Quality Games for every system that ever was up to the point where they switched to CD format.
I will make a post just for the emulation stuff, but I just wanted to give you a preview.
And for those of you who cannot make the space available to hold the entire game libraries, I will post a link to a REPUTABLE ROM download site where you can download them one at a time, and just get the ones you like.
