Oki, thank you.
I used to use vimm but Nintendo happened :c
Vimm's Lair? I just checked and the site is up
A good chunk of ROMs are ubdiwnloadable
I was just poking around on there and couldn't find any that I couldn't download. Do you have a specific game?
Try nes punch out. Or anything by Nintendo,
i am able to view and download without issues. I am located in the US if that matters.
Pretty sure it was Nintendo of america that did it, good to see vimm retrun :D
Yeah i use vimm a lot, hopefully it stays up! Fuck nintendo!
After some looking, now the box art is gone :c
Mainly for Mario and stuff. Also zelda
Only effects earlier gen consoles
That's horrible
Yea
I know. I used Vimm too, and still do for very certain stuff. Being in emulation scene since over ~~15~~ 20 years and only discovered Vimm last year, lol. This wouldn't be the first major site we lose. Whatever happens, there will always be such sites. So don't worry, Nintendo can't fight entire world, nor want they.
I know, I'm just pisses cos vimm had the best ui.
Sure, they only had up to 5th-6th gen devices but their ui was fucking excellent
Good riddance to that one txt file with all their Roms tho
