Super Mario Bros. FDS ROM

[Doc]

why I hate roms:


because I can just buy the real thing and have something more valuable

Dude, it's not like you can just go on any street corner and buy a Recca cart.

because it is stealing

How is it stealing when the games are NES/Famicom games which Nintendo can't even make a profit on anymore?

because i like the real deal

So do we all. But there are situations where the games we want to play aren't available on eBay. When was the last time you saw a copy of Puyo Puyo, Navy Blue, or Donald Land on eBay?

because I am a collector

And so are we.

[snowbored]

okay i guess that means nobody has it.

[snowbored]

what do i do for a living ? well im 17 so i guess not much. iv been looking for a job but its kinda hard in such a small town. i use roms for an alternative

Seriously, I agree with kite200 on most of these things, but I think snowbored just wants to play the game & doesn't seriously want to own it.

Let me guess, is it about the Minus World?  I know someone has it, because we had a link to a bunch of FDS roms & I was able to play it.  Sorry, I didn't keep it, though.

Ok, im 14, I have no job, and i still can afford this shit. also jl, this thread isnt really about recca, so that isnt really valid, smb is a 20 dollar game at best, so its pretty cheap. nintendo is still turning a profit on nes games thru wii. and i saw a copy of puyo puyo on ebay 2 months ago

[snowbored]

okay. i assure you man. i would be buying more games if i had money. i dont really like roms too but that is whats avaliable so i take advantage of that. 

and yes its because of minus world. i wanted to fool around with it in a different version.

Do you pay the for the groceries, electric, water, telephone bills?

also jl, this thread isnt really about recca, so that isnt really valid,

What's your point? I was arguing against your point, so how is it not valid?

smb is a 20 dollar game at best, so its pretty cheap.

Maybe cheap by your standards...but that's pretty expensive for me.

nintendo is still turning a profit on nes games thru wii.

Dude, that's REALLY streching it...It's not like the FDS version of Super Mario Bros., a Week of Garfield, Rock Board, or Dirty Pair: Project Eden are coming to the Wii anytime soon.

and i saw a copy of puyo puyo on ebay 2 months ago

ONE copy. TWO months ago. Before that, how often did you find it?

I rest my case.

[kite200]

It's not valid because you are talking about a 400 dollar game. That maybe you can dl a rom for, but 20 dollar smb is a joke compared to 400 bucks

So? Both are expensive to me...

Some people aren't wealthy man, you're lucky. We have bills to pay, which mysteriously rise every year...

[Jedi Master Baiter]

We have bills to pay, which mysteriously rise every year...

Yeah, why can't my salary do that?

Maybe it has something to do with not holding a job for a little bit more than a year...

Be a teacher like me. You get more cash the longer you stay, so the money is good when you're like 50, though.

[snowbored]

yeah. looks like money grows on trees for kite or something. only if it was like that for the rest of us. should i just give up ?

I THINK there's a ROM out there, but it's very hard to find. One day you'll find it.

[snowbored]

haha alright. sounds good. ill run into it one of these days.

In the meanwhile, why not stick around on the forums anyway?
