ROM dumping... HOWTO

Hi every1

Maybe this isn´t the right place, but maybe it also is, since
the N64 uses cartridges.

I just wanted to know how ROMs are bing dumped.

I know there were devices on the black market for the Amiga that could read Gameboy cartridges in order to emulate them. They were plugged into the PCMCIA port.

Gawsh !

The purpose of it was only to understand how it works, not to do it by myself (which would be a complete waste of time anyway, since every game is avaible online already)...

Sorry if I let sound it that way...

What´s your problem anyway ?

It was just a technical interest about how roms are being dumped. I once again appologize if it sounded like I wanted to start a black market business.

I myself own a N64 and have no real interest in playing several games for free. It´s just the fun to see that something can run on another platform in bigger resolution etc.

OK, to clear things up:

1.) I did NOT have the desire to dump ROMs myself, it was only of technical interest. I probably don´t have enough background knowledge to do that anyway. The only programming lessons I had was the few Pascal lessons in school.

2.) I did NOT beg for ROMs, and am VERY WELL familiar with copyright laws, so don´t paste me statements about what´s prohibited and what not !

3.) I somehow realize that I have to precise my questions further to avoid such conflicts. I again appologize for that.

4.) "... all ROMs are avaible online..." <--- what´s so amusing about that ? I´d like to know
