AtariMan1976 Posted July 15, 2007 Author Share Posted July 15, 2007 Will these always be readily available? Also, your using the actual roms that were never released right? Yes they will probably be available, drop me an e-mail if there are any problems. Prototype reproductions use the actual prototype rom images, conversions are games created from their 8-bit computer counterparts. Steve THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for saying ROM images instead of just roms. Yes, I know it's stupid, but abuse of "rom" drives me nuts. geez, sorry. how is it abuse? at least he knew what i meant. It's an irrational peeve of mine. ROMs = actual physical chips. ROM images = files containing the same data as the ROMs they're dumped from. Somewhere along the line, the emulation community managed to abbreviate ROM image to ROM. And then the next generation began applying ROM to any and all pirated software, often while failing to capitalize it. And when I started seeing people asking for "playstation roms" and "the rom version of Quake 3" I sorta lost all rationality about the issue.

I picked up a almost mint expansion-port 7800 this weekend from a tagsale. When I paid the lady she said 'do you have tapes for that?". I hadn't heard that in years. It made me laugh.

Allan Of course, when you make a backup of an Atari tape, it's referred to as a TROM. -Bry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
