Realy cool roms at *****************

but.....You may download a game ROM ONLY if you can do so legally. This means you must own the actual cartridge (or other media the ROM was distributed on) of the ROM you are downloading. Under the copyright laws of the U.S., you are entitled to own a backup of any software you have paid for. Since ROMS cannot be backedup without expensive machines that not everyone has access to, the ROM images here are provided to the public as a service. You will NEVER sell these ROMS for profit. Most game companies don't mind the distribution of their game's ROMS because they no longer exist, but they WILL mind if someone sells them. You will NOT distribute ROMS together with emulators as a package. This is VERY important. Packaging a ROM and an emulator together could get the authors of the emulators into trouble, which would result in no updates to the emulators. You will NEVER hold anyone at *********** (including its webmasters and other staff, or anyone else related to this website) or our webhosts responsible for any damage caused to your system, or for any legal actions taken against you for not obeying the above stated rules, or for any other reason. YOU are solely responsible for any and all consequences. **********'s sole purpose is to provide a service to those who don't have access to a ROM backup machine, but would like to preserve their games and investments in these now out-dated video games and machines. No harm is being done to game companies, as the ROMS on this website are of games that are no longer for sale, from which game companies can no longer profit.

Admin Edit: Sorry, sites holding rom files which are not Public Domain are banned

We have no problems with you posting links to free legal games.

What would you rather have?

a) AAS forums like they are now, with the no-warez policy, but with many developers on board, sharing their new programs with us, and helping us with our problems.

or

b) AAS forums with warez, where the place just becomes full of illegal activities, with no developers coming on board, no experts to help each other, and no great community we have here.

I know which one I'd choose, and it aint choice B.

Cheers

j2k,i agree with you,i also choose A)type of forum,like ours is.ALSO DO you remember,my post about SMARTLAUNCHER kills N3650,so i got CRACKED SMArt launcher from forum with type b),and my 3650 died,BUT I DONE so that MY N3650 is ALIVE.

AAAA the maximalism of youth. Jimmy everything in life has disadvantages my friend. Let's say our forums have a competitive advantage chosen for their target audience.
