A while back, there was a thread in here and posts that mentioned something about roms not being roms.

So my question is, if I'm using the VisualBoy Emulator and playing games from the site -- DELETED --, just what are those? Also, the games and ems are on my computer.

If the moderator closes this thread, would someone please be kind and talk to me in a PM.

Please, don't mention ROM sites. Read the Forum Rules (http://forums.emulator-zone.com/rules.php) for more information.

Now, what are the format of those ROMs? I mean, file extension? Are they zipped?

Sorry About that. I can say they are in zipped files. Someone did all the leg work including programming them and eamiled them to me.
