ABOUT LOCKED INTERNET ARCHIVE ITEMS

Internet Archive restricts items that generate a high amount of traffic from
being able to be downloaded without an account to prevent abuse. This is shown
with a lock icon beside the file name in the item's file listing.



When accessing the file directly, the following error is shown instead.



To download locked items, register an archive.org account.


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

About "No-Intro" and "Redump"

No-Intro and Redump are groups that catalog hashes of dumped games for different
systems. If a link has "No-Intro" or "Redump" in the name, it is a collection of
the currently best-available ROMs for the system. These should be your go-to
links if what you are looking for is not in the Popular Games page.

About Internet Archive Items

Internet Archive items will have metadata files that end in extensions such as
.xml and .sqlite. These files are not important to download but are meant for
the website to know what files to display and the reviews of the item.



About Internet Archive Torrents

Some Internet Archive items will contain torrent files to provide another
download method. However, the torrent's files listing is usually incomplete
compared to what is listed on the website. For this reason, it is recommended to
use direct downloads with a download manager instead of torrents.

About Archive Files (ZIP, 7z, RAR):

These files are not ROMs themselves; to use them, you must extract them. 7-Zip
is recommended for extracting these files. Download and install it here and run
it. Then, open the archive file in 7-Zip or right click on it and go to 7-Zip ->
Extract Files.


ABOUT UBLOCK ORIGIN

While not required anymore due to megaup links being removed, uBlock Origin is
recommended when accessing certain links on this megathread and the Internet in
general. It blocks ads, trackers,and much more.

Below are links to download and install it for popular web browsers.

Store Name Links Chrome Web Store Link Firefox Add-ons Link Opera Add-ons Link

For Android: Download Firefox from the Play Store, locate the Addons menu and
select uBlock Origin. Add it to Firefox and remember to only use Firefox to
download ROMs.


HOW TO BYPASS DOWNLOAD LIMITS

Google Drive

From time to time when trying to download a file, you may see an error message
saying “Download quota exceeded, so you can’t download this file at this time”.
Here are steps to bypass the download quota limit:

 1. Log into your Google account, if you haven’t already.
 2. Open Google Drive and go to “My Drive” in the sidebar.
 3. Make a new folder in your drive. It doesn’t matter what you name it.
 4. Go to the quota'd folder, right click on whatever you want to download, and
    click “Add Shortcut to Drive”.
 5. Navigate to “My Drive” and then to the folder you made, and click “Add
    Shortcut”.
 6. Go to “My Drive” on the sidebar. Right-click the folder you made and click
    “Download”.
 7. A .zip file with the file(s) you selected will start downloading.

MEGA and 1Fichier

MEGA and 1Fichier have pretty serious data caps and unlike Google Drive, there
is no easy way to get around them. To bypass the MEGA and 1Fichier download
limits, you will need either a VPN or a list of proxies. For the VPN, connect to
it and you are good to go. For a list of proxies, you will have to use some 3rd
party tool like JDownloader2 and give it the list of proxies. Do note that this
process is fairly advanced. After that, you can start downloading by feeding
JDownloader2 links to the files you would like to download.
