just curious to see if anyone has tried [GameTap.com](http://GameTap.com) its like $14.95 per month & they have over 300 games…old to new, like Pittfall, centipede , & Zaxxon to Sonic, RainbowSix, & Splinter cell, . i was just wondering the quality of the games & if the service was worth it.

> [@Viper8854](#): > > Hey showtime why not just just download a Snes emulator and download all the snes roms or what ever kind of roms you want easyer and cheaper i’ll have to look into that…its been a few years since i’ve played PC games…I basically just play a few PS2 games & thats it. but i’ve been getting into playing oldschool games…even picked up a few classic game packs for PS2 (midway, capcom, etc…) i just noticed this site & wondeded what it was like…i’m just not down witht eh $15 per. i found a few places that had oldschool games but they were shockwave, and/or some other web plugin & they were OK but not as good. i’ll have to try some of the emulators… any suggestions on where to get them & get the games? ---

Do a google search for Snes emulator. then to get the roms you can do a google search for (name of the game) then at the end make sure you put rom there will be a nice list or if you got kazaa or morp you can download them on there or just get ahold me of and i can zip them all up and send them to you ---

pick an snes game and I will send it to you when I am at home. any one. any language. I only have an emulator for xbox, but that should be easy to find. I have a few choice NES games as well, but not all of them. ---

> [@fshowcars](#): > > i have a b unch of nes snes [romnation.net](http://romnation.net) no bit torrent, and you can get the games and emulators straight from there. most work, the bogus ones have 5-6 copies and usually at least one will work. also, try (idk if this is right) [theoldcomputer.com](http://theoldcomputer.com) for atari and commodore64 ---
