Frequently Asked Question
Q: What is Emulation all about?

A: The kind of emulation this site is about, is the practice of playing old, or new, console games on your computer!!! It allows you to re-live the classics. Like Mario Brothers, Missile Command, Donkey Kong, Pong,  in the arcades, and play them on your computer using a "Emulator".
Q: What are ROMs?
A: ROM stands for "Read Only Memory". 
Which basically means you can't delete it,
or modify it. A Rom is, (Usually), a exact
copy of a game that was once on a cartridge,
and put into a computer. EG: Super Mario
Brothers was on a cartridge for the Nintendo.
Q: What is a Emulator?
A: Emulators are programs that people make
for your computer, that will load, and play
the Roms you download. ON YOUR
COMPUTER!!!! Wh00p!
Q: Are Emulators free?
A: Most of them are. In fact, almost all
emulators are free. To my knowledge, there
are only a few Emulators that cost money. 
Like bleem!, a Playstation emulator that costs
30 dollars. Another commercial emulator is
the Magic Engine, it is a emulator for the a
system made by NEC, called the Turbo Grafix,
and  that emulator costs somewhere around 35
dollars. I know there is also and emulator for
the Gameboy, and another Playstation
emulator for the MAC.
Q: Is Emulation legal?
A: In one word, Yes. Emulation is legal as long
as you only download the ROMs you own. For
example, if you own Zelda for Nintendo, you are
allowed by law to have a backup copy of it. So
you may download Zelda, and play it to your
hearts content. :)
Q: Where can I download all this cool stuff?
A: Well, there are a lot of places actually. People
put them up on web sites, chat rooms, FTP
servers, newsgroups, bulletin boards. If you spent
a little time, I'm sure you could find ROM for that
game you had long long ago.
