Default Re: Freeware!

You better check with your local, state, and federal laws to be sure, but most older systems no longer in developement are, by default, considered abandonware, therefore are free. Check the disclaimers on sites offering free ROMs to find out specific information for the given ROM you are interested in to see if that one requires you to own the physical game cartridge or not. In any case, ALL ROM games are legal to have on your PC for up to 24 hours, so download, enjoy, and delete! (Hmm.. sounds like 'catch and release'... and strangely, the laws are about the same too.. lol)
