I download, if only because I live where bootleg copies are the only copies out there anyway, and I carry my Clie around way more often.

I'd rather dl hand-eld console games because the Hand-eld is simply not worth my time and money.Batteries,games,saved games disapearing.It's easier to Dl it then trash it and beside I can't see why it would bankrupt the company who made the game,lot's of units are still sold and I rarely see someone bringing a laptop at different places to play hand-eld roms...

I'll buy them if I like the game, but if I can't find the game or I don't know if I'll like it I'll download them

You know, If you have a computer and internet, the best is to download, of course, original is MUCH better but so expensive.

I don't rate the games by their awesome media, I rate them by their gameplay and fun.

Real games are nice because they are portable, but I like roms because they are of course free, and you can have a lot of them

Absolutely the real ones... though mario dx (and maybe others, didn't check the other pages) had a point.

Hard choice: ROMs are free (moneywise), but can only be played on PC (if you don't have a flash card) and sometimes incomplete. Real games cost money but you can take them everywhere (even in the can!).
