I realise this thread might not last long, but can someone mail me a big bunch of mame romz. I've been looking around and it seems tons of hassle to just download 1 or 2!!!

time to spill the beans - it's kazaa - I downloaded 2 60 meg rom collections this morning and am now downloading a 2 and a 300 meg collection.

Lots of overlap I imagine, but hey, I should get some more.

Brings back fantastic memories.

I have every MAME rom for MAME 0.62.
That's all the 3,596 to date. Not bad for an ISDN line (and a 'little help' from tombstones mame site). Nice people indeed - RIP their glorious service

Bear in mind that half the fun is in the collecting!!!

Getting hold of those older roms is not generally a problem. As has been said earlier, kazaa is a good source.

Many of the newer, and bigger, sometimes MUCH bigger, roms are more difficult to find as someone's got to pay for the hosting and bandwidth consumed. I found http://www.romnation.net to be good for many roms.

Ive got a zip with 767 of the smaller ROMs I can put somewhere (for a limited time) for people to d/l. Size is 111MB.

Cheers
