OK, forgive my ignorance, but I'm pretty new to this particular emulator and I'm not a technical genius. With my Sega Genesis and Gameboy emulators, I can choose which ROM I want to load from the drop-down menu. How do I load the ROMs with the RockNES emulator?
I've downloaded quite a few games for myself and my young daughter but we can't play them!
Please help!

Thank you

1. Run the emulator.
2. From the GUI, select File, then Load:


3. Select a file from the list. All valid files have the .NES extension.

See, the problem was that none of the ROMs I downloaded were showing up in the list and I had no idea how to get them INTO the list. I stumbled across the answer (or at least AN answer) last night. When I put shortcuts for the ROMs on my Desktop, they finally showed up in the list.
Thanks, though.

You must place them in the same folder (directory) you put the emulator, or navigate through the folders and find where you put the games. Easy.
