It'll be okay. I remember panicking years ago when they attacked other ROM sites. The games will go back up. Maybe in another location, but they always go back up. They cut off one head and another two grow back
Good point.
So, now I have generations 1-4 + GBA basically. Gen 5 will.be an issue because those damn filesizes.
I've done what I can
I've really wanted to one day go grab a personal collection like that for myself.
I also saw that you can download the entirety of Wikipedia, and it doesn't take up too much space either. I think it was a post made here the other day? I thought that was pretty cool. So much knowledge at ones disposal
How do I do that? It sounds like a great idea
I can't find the original post, but I did a Google search and found this.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Database_download
I haven't tried it yet, but there might be a better or easier way!
