I legit have never run into this problem, so I am just going to keep with skill issue. Seriously, it’s not hard to find ROMs.

Yeah, that was a benefit of Vimm’s but it is a skill issue to not find clean roms outside of Vimm’s. There are literally hundreds if not thousands of ROM sites out there. It’s not like there’s only 10 or something. If one sucks, go to another
Honestly, in my opinion, clean ROMs do exist. The No-Intro collection is quite good.

I did know vimms lair before and I get some most of games but not all of them. How sad they went down. Do not worry about it. Most dead games will re-uploaded again on underground, graveyard, horror, gothic, immortal, etc websites (dark sides only like on black social media, forums, etc) will be extreme hardest to take games off far away somewhere around in Europe, Asia, south countries where Nintendo company will do nothing to them. Where DMCA are not there and it are bulletproof like immune to all laws will do nothing to them. :(

This is exactly why sites like Vimm's receiving takedowns, frankly, isn't that big of a deal. I genuinely don't see why people act like the sky's falling when ROM sites that get popular receive DMCAs, when at any given moment there are probably dozens of other places to get ROMs if you just look a bit.
The reason this is being treated as a big deal is becuase Nintendo (Of America obviously, why wouldn't be the other regional divisions.) took down another rom site that was beloved. All they're doing is fucking with pirates and the opposition cries crocodile tears and swearing they will never buy from the corporation anymore (only to do so the very next day) every single time.


Once again, I must stress to anyone getting into emulation, you should NEVER, NEVER EVER, EVER put all your eggs on one single ROM Site (and also why you should NOT be promoting these sites on Tik Tok or YouTube) becuase the more awareness you bring to them, the sooner they get killed off by the Nintendo or Disney's of the world.

    I think the cross gen console thing has killed playing cod, bf, pubg on consoles. Cheaters on pc has made them horrible to play on consoles.
