Alright, for a while after reading their website, I thought that Atari ROMS might have possibly been made available for non-profit distribution now. However, after further research this afternoon, I have found that there are only a small handful of Atari ROMS that are freely available for non-profit distribution. Of course, any Homebrew open-license games are for the taking.....but a large majority of the original Atari games still have copyrights that are held by the original developers of the games. Therefore, because the URL you listed had copyrighted ROMS listed, I was forced to remove the link from our forums.

Feel free to continue the discussion of this Atari emulator, but Do Not Provide Links To ROMS, unless you absolutely know that the link does not contain any downloads of copyrighted ROMS. Thanks.

Any posts containing links to copyrighted ROMS will be deleted.
