Yup, that's always been my focus.  While I understand that there are people out there who simply want to download every ROM so they can display them like some sort of trophy, that has never been my intent.  While I can't force people from doing that, it doesn't mean I have to encourage it.  So I don't, plain and simple, and I discourage it wherever possible.  In fact, many such people despise my site with a passion because of that, and I'm perfectly happy with that.

So if you want to download every ROM at once you'll have to go somewhere else, and a BitTorrent site is probably a good place to start.  I couldn't tell you where to look because honestly, I couldn't care less about them.  If you're just looking for some good old-fashioned nostalgia though, everything you need is right here.

"Preserving the classics since 1997.

Welcome to Vimm's Lair! This site is dedicated to nostalgia for two of the greatest systems ever made, the Nintendo and Super Nintendo Entertainment System (NES and SNES). Inside you'll find detailed info on thousands of games, user ratings and reviews, original full-color manuals, new and used games, consoles, and accessories, and much more! Whether you're looking for some nostalgia or you're just curious, you're sure to find everything you need!"

The recurring theme in the introduction is nostalgia. This site is about reliving games from your childhood, not about having every ROM dump out there. If that's what you're after, I'm not the only person here who will say that you're at the wrong place.

If you want full ROMsets, look on BitTorrent sites.
