Hi guys, I was wondering, how many NES roms & games actually exist, some guy I know says he has all of them (4352). Is 4352 the real total of existing roms?

How many NES games/roms exist?
Size matters not. Judge me by my size, do you? Hmmm...and well you should not! For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter! You must feel the Force around you, here; between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere!...yes, even between the land and the ship.

I think I know.
I think so if you mean all the (U) NES games/roms. 'Cause all the (U) and (J) and other types NES games/roms together are over 8000 NES games/roms
. To be exact I think there are 8357 games/roms 'cause I used GoodWindows to see how many NES games/roms there are 
.

****** excludes the bad and hacked dumps from their collection..
and rom linking, or speaking of places to get roms, will not be tolerated.

I didn't mention an address or anything. I didn't even hint at an address. So it's even against the rules to mention the NAME of a place? Geez...

The 'new junk' they create is known as Public Domain roms usually, they also help to keep a system like the nes alive in ways.
I'm sure there are still a heap of bootleg games that havent been dumped so you can use them under emulators, and a lot of them never will be, which is sad because the carts dont last for ever
