Roms, because they are free & Real games can get easily lost & sctratched, while if a ROM gets corrupt you delete then download a new one! :D

Well for me i like the console gaming more.. Its just a different experience on consoles and you bought the game, so you are encouraged to play it more :D but i recently bought a Logitech controller for my pc and it makes playing roms alot more fun.

I prefer the real thing to roms but sometimes roms are nice because you want to play the games that other countries get to play. I don't own a DS but roms make it possible for me to try the games out before I fork over $100's of my hard earned cash.

i prefer roms for the games with a lot of typing as you can increase game sped to skip them or get through them quickly, though admittedly its more fun on handheld and its harder to get rsi on one of those as opposed to brutally using a keyboard or a game like dragoin ballz or super smash.

I would have to say that real games are more fun, mostly because you have the controller and such (control is easier for some games), but on the other hand, ROMS are great if you dont have the system and still wish to play the games, and how easy it is to swap between games or even systems. Peace.

There is no better feeling that playing an actual game on a portable system or on your tv. It just feels right.

roms are a good way to play games that i wouldn't normaly go out and buy or if it's too rare to find.if the game is good, you can never beat the real thing. roms just help me figger out which gba and virtual console games to purchase.

Roms are free and with my VBA emulator i can stretch the screen to get a larger image. also, on game that have a lot of talking and walking (pokemon, for example) the throttle is useful for skipping long boring sections, although when you do use the throttle you can miss the storyline. but still, i would thinks roms are better.

Real items will give the better gamefeel but ROMS just gives you funs and no more than that. But ROMS gives the convient to us more than the real items.

The only console i have is a used ps2 i bought, and i never play it. Roms are just more entertaining to me, cause you can do it while talkin on aim

ROMS SO YOU can cheat all the time without wrecking your system, plus you don't have to own the games.
