    Looking for particular emulator firmwares

    I can't find them anywhere. I'm looking for files named data.rom and rtc.ram which higan-based emulators need. Anyone know where to find them?

    It was said already that it was to prolong gameplay or poor design. So the good games that were hard were on purpose to prolong gameplay. The bad ones were just bad design.

    I know about the start menu. But whatever favorites you add are still boxes. There is no way around it. W10, like 8, caters to touch screens. That looks terrible on desktop screens, esp. when there...

    Windows 10's new browser is Chrome???

    That is not a scientific test, as I stated above. So unless your mp3s are encoded in low bitrate and/or bad quality, you are not really noticing any difference, but instead it's all in your head.

    Which mp3 player is it? How often have you changed the battery? Because if it's so old that it can't play a better format than mp3, it must be really old.

    Why are people still using MP3?

    Talk about a dinosaur codec. Rippers should use a better codec if they're going to release lossy soundtracks. Vorbis, opus or even AAC with a high quality encoder like qaac.
