Any updates on this? I can’t provide much, as Nintendo games are not something I’m interested in, but I guess I can allocate 800-1000GB or so for some time for this, if there’s an archive torrent already made
Found a comment below, but after thinking about it we’d need something a bit more “official” and “centralized”, like Vimm’s was, otherwise we’d be spreading it too thin and would end up with many different un-searchable, un-findable torrents with few seeds for the same things
At one point, I found a complete set of ROMs for every single game on retroachievements.com. It’s almost assuredly out of date by now, and I’m not saying it would have every single Vimm ROM…. But there would be a lot of overlap. If any are already wiped from Vimm and nobody has a backup, let me know and I’ll do some digging to see if I have anything comparable.
A search nonprofit. Something like Kagi but nonprofit. Publishing its index on regular basis along with its source code. Wikimedia could perhaps start something like that.
Public Libraries are struggling and looking for relevance in the modern world. Libraries brought us the Dewey Decimal System, and early attempt to “categorize all the world’s information and make it useful,” as was Google’s claimed original goal.
A coalition of public libraries and data-scientists seems like the path to me. Libraries are already in the business of categorizing and organizing information, sooooooo.
As soon as I heard about the emulator stuff I grabbed some archive torrents to seed overall more then 5 tb. All WII DS 3DS and SWITCH roms so they aren’t gone if you have the space to join seeding pm me and I’ll send you the magnet links because there are like only 5 seeder and a lot of leecher
