I’m on the hunt for ROMS for old systems. NES, SNES, Genesis, etc.
I paid for a physical copy of Micro Mages for NES a few years back, and just recently bought the ROM for Dataman, also for NES. But I’m wondering if anyone has a source for several that fit this category.
Let me be clear, I will gladly support the developers of these games, but I have been bitten by a few stinkers. Where the trailer looked good but the game didn’t feel like it was worth the $10+ for the ROM.
One in partiular that has intrigued me is Courier. I did some searching and can’t find a demo or a ROM to try before I buy. And at $10, it’s outside of my impulse buy range, if that makes sense.

Have you tried Itch.io? They have a lot of Gameboy and NES roms that are “Name your own price.” I don’t have any recommendations - I’ve just started poking around with homebrew roms myself.
I have. it’s a solid resource. Was mostly hoping to some specific homebrew games to try before buying.
I have a bunch of old roms. PM me and I’ll see what I can do to get them to you.
I downloaded huge sets from internet archive.
Goodboy Galaxy for Gba is pretty great
Ooh, I lost track of that one. I remember seeing the trailer but it was at least a year ago and completely forgot about it. I’ll definitely check it out!
If a homebrew game is popular enough, such as Micro Mages, you can sometimes find them in romsets. Unfortunately some cartridge-only and less popular ROMs take a while to get uploaded; took me a year to find a specific Genesis ROM that was cartridge-only.
Micro Mages is so good!
