In this video I show you where to get safe switch roms, and where to get all roms for Retro consoles. 

Where to get safe Switch and retro game roms

Comments

How do you search for a game on Taodung? If I try and use their search function nothing comes up. I have to go through page by page to find the game I want. I have an iMac (M3 chip) and I used your YouTube video to set up Ryujinx. I found some games through the sites you've recommended on your Patreon and I've added them. So far so good. I'm wondering though about multipart RAR files. I had read somewhere (can't remember where now) that all you needed to do was extract part 1 and them add them all to the Ryujinx game directory. That is what I did and they showed up and I was able to play them. I'm just wondering if this is wrong and I should have extracted them all. I just want to avoid problems when I'm further along the game.

This is no longer available for alot of Nintendo games

Dylan Laurain

Is there any other ps3 emulator

patrick tran

I dont use Retroarch for wii roms so im not sure honesty. Is this the only wii rom that your having issues with?

UrCasualGamer

hello so i have RetroArch, and i am trying to add Super Mario All Stars from the site you recommended. However, when i try to launch the game, i get "failed to load content" am I doing something wrong?

Wild_guy247

I'm in the US and I was having the same issue. I actually discovered it was being caused by my ad blocker.

Jeancarlos Contin

Sorry I don't have any more link's. Also where do you live because some people said they couldn't download because they didn't live in the US.

UrCasualGamer

Trying to get the Pokemon Brilliant Diamond ROM and the links are like "Not available anymore" is there another website you have?

I think I found a solution to the taodung problem! I was also having trouble accessing the website. each time I tried it was a error screen or it saying it had trouble connecting. Avast anti virus the popped up and told me it’s a dangerous website, so it had me thinking what if I disabled avast web shield to see if any change happens and taodung then worked once I disabled my webshield. The only scary thing about it is that it gives me warnings that the website is malicious and has potential malware lol

two9ts

use a VPN and connect to any US server, that was the fix for me

2Tyann

got a fix, due to me not living in the US its blocked, a VPN helped, thanks for the help!

I downloaded a rom from them earlier and it worked, and there are other sites but I couldn't get roms to download from them. Also I can't say the sites are safe.

UrCasualGamer

Glad you like it

Hey revisiting! I managed to figure everything out and taodung is fantastic for me with yuzu. About to test it on my mini pc

Scotoma

Damn! That's a shame, but I'm glad you keep persevering. You are the 1# content creator I trust with Emulation setup and with your help I was able to set up a mini PC hooked up to my tv with every emulator you had a video for on YouTube. all I need now is Nintendo Switch. I'm looking forward to the updated video! (:

Scotoma

Actually I may do that for you and everyone else that's on my Patreon. You are the first person I'm telling this to but my main channel Urcasualgamer just got a strike the other day so I can't upload there for a week, and ucg retro also has a strike that is in review. I'm starting to give up on youtube honesty but at the same time I understand there policy. May be best to just create setup videos with every detail in them and upload them here.

UrCasualGamer

Hey UCG! Thanks for the video. I've been having trouble understanding what the file format should look like after extracting a Nintendo Switch ROM from taodung.com. It's quite sketchy and slow since some 1fichier links have been taken down since this video was uploaded and I've had to try other links, but I was able to get 1 NCP and 1 XCI of Pokemon Brilliant Diamond. I have an issue with a "Bad NCA header" pop up Which after some research is related to the Prod keys/Title Key. (Could be unrelated as I was fiddling around with the emulator) What I'm asking is if could you upload a complete tutorial going over every step from installing Yuzu, grabbing keys & firmware, grabbing the ROM, and setting up the emulator? It would be outstanding

Scotoma

darn that's a shame but thank you for getting back to me so quickly! Have you ever tried softcobra? I've heard good things about it but am skeptical lol.

two9ts

Not sure haven't been on there in a while but I'm going to check it out, and sorry but I don't know of any other trusted switch rom site

UrCasualGamer

is taodung down? not working for me :/ are there any switch rom alternative websites?

two9ts

You can't. Just move it to that drive once the download is finished.

UrCasualGamer

Yo shandell how do i make it so that on vimms lair when i press download on a rom for it to download on my external hardrive?

Kronky Emu

The site I used got shut down but if you watch the video here on Patreon on how to setup the USB helper you will have your new source. That's basically what the USB helper is used for. Wii U roms

UrCasualGamer

Where do u get your wii u roms from? Vimm and taodung doesnt have wii u section

Kronky Emu

The 3ds roms on taodung only have to be extracted using 7zip and they become playable.

UrCasualGamer

Yeah but i havent really tried the taodung yet i would use a site called roms github megathread and when i would download 3ds roms it wouldnt let me play it on citra because it said the rom was encrypted and had to be decrypted. Does taodung have decrypted or encrypted 3ds roms?

Kronky Emu

I am making a ps2 bios vid within the next 2 days. And are you having trouble with 3DS Roms?

UrCasualGamer

Yo shandell here are some vids u should make: How to get safe ps2 bios How to decrypt 3ds roms to use on citra

Kronky Emu

Yes they do. Been using the site for years it's the best.

UrCasualGamer

Yo shandell so every all your roms that u show in ur yt videos for like dolphin and ps2 come frm vimm?

Kronky Emu

There are a few and I'm actually working on a video about this that will be uploaded to my UCG top picks channel

UrCasualGamer

Not sure where you live but I have figured out from my subscribers that outside the US its blocked in some countries.

UrCasualGamer

Im not able to access to : https://taodung.com/

Leonardo Hernández

What systems do you need to download bios for? I’m looking mainly into Nintendo system. Up to ds/GameCube.

B8ablocker

Not gonna lie I hate Mac and ios for emulation but I recommend retroarch for ios.

UrCasualGamer

What emulator do you recommend for iOS?

B8ablocker

No

UrCasualGamer

do you need to download bios for GBC and GBA roms?

B8ablocker

Are you extracting the rom using 7zip before loading it up? Also for what emulator?

UrCasualGamer

after i download and put it onto a folder it tells me the ROM format is not supported, i dont know how to make it work.

Luis P

You extract them? If so do you use 7zip or winrar, and what file type you get after?

UrCasualGamer

Hey I was watching your video about xbox 360 emulator and how the roms need to be in disc image file, I get my roms from vimm.net, but they not in disc images files, any suggestions

Michael

Thank you

UrCasualGamer

Ok thanks, love your video, keep posting

Michael

If you need to know where to get them. I use the same site as the switch roms that I showed in the video that's on here.

UrCasualGamer

Anything about 3ds

Michael

What would you like to see?

UrCasualGamer

post somthing ples

ben beasley

Yea true but it's YouTube rules and I did push the limit with giving you guys links to bios files and roms. Just glad I didn't get my channel deleted altogether. But I appreciate your support here I really do.

UrCasualGamer

It's to bad that you had to go to this channel, but what ever will work!

Michael Mundt

No problem

UrCasualGamer

Thank you for the info!

Michael Mundt

For TOTK I now see Invalid upload ID and it won't give me a download button. So I'm guessing they took it down.

UrCasualGamer

Let me know if you had the chance to check it out

Felipe Martinez

I don't and Discord is next on my list to do. I am unsure of why you are getting those types of folders. Haven't downloaded a 360 rom in a while from vimm but I recall only getting one zipped or packed file.

UrCasualGamer

do you have a Discord server I can join?

Dr0n3Xx

Ok when I download the games it gives me two folders Audio_TS and Video_TS both in Winrar and 7zip

Dr0n3Xx

Try 7zip and let me know if the file type looks different then winrar for you.

UrCasualGamer

I get my games from my Xbox 360, but the only game I don't have that I want to play is Red Dead Redemption.

Dr0n3Xx

I usually use winrar but i have 7zip installed too

Dr0n3Xx

Also 7zip may extract your 360 roms into a folder titled the name of the game. Inside that folder you will find your disc image file and a DVD file. The disc image file will load your game

UrCasualGamer

I use 7zip to extract them and it gives me a disc image file type that is playable. What do you use to extract your roms?

UrCasualGamer

Hey, can you help me so I always use Vimm.net to download ROMs. The only problem I'm having when I try to download Xbox 360 games I don't know how to get them to work on Xenia emulator can you give me some advice on how to? Thank you and I appreciate it if you can help!!

Dr0n3Xx

I think the problem might be ublock origin but not sure.

Felipe Martinez

Yea must be im going to try it out for myself in a few.

UrCasualGamer

Other games work. Must only be TOTK

Felipe Martinez

I haven't seen that message before but I downloaded it a week ago. So it's possible that notice could be true if your not seeing it for any other games.

UrCasualGamer

I'm trying to get TOTK but when I make it to the 1fichier page it gives me this message "The requested file has been deleted following an abuse request." Is there something else I should try?
