I am well pleased to inform a new concept for Emulation, ROM and Torrent enthusiasts, if you want to see behind the scenes, join our Simplex Group!

For context, it will be a website with magnet links to download compressed ROM files through a torrent client, like a .rvz ROM file for Wii and GameCube games in the dolphin emulator and so on.
For all that have the same goal, shall unite as one.
All thanks to Peter sunde and Njalla for the domain!
Can you explain what this is? Kind of unclear from the website, feels a bit disjointed at first glance.
I just put a quick description in this post, I will add a “what” section when I can.
No worries - definitely interested! Just trying to get what 1) it is 2) I should do with it!
Shout out to Brokep, nice to see folks using Njalla.
It’s a torrent client with an integrated retroarch? I don’t get it.
No, its a website like the pirate bay, but nowhere finished atm…
RetroTorrents.net has magnet links 1 magnet = 1 Compressed ROM Use a torrent client Download compressed ROM Play the game Seed the torrent
No need to decompress a .7z or .zip file from vimm or myrient, the ROM file is already compressed and ready to play.
I am glad to see these getting moved to torrents finally. Not too long ago I heard a bunch of roms were getting removed from vimms.
Pardon my ignorance, but how it this different from vimms?
The idea is that RetroTorrents allows downloads through torrents, while Vimm doesn’t.
Super proud to see that someone has the mentality to do this!
simplex chat only works with/on a mobile phone?
Yeah, is there is a better platform perhaps?
Stumbling over SimpleX again I found now that they do provide a desktop client. It’s just not very obvious on their website/room join with QR code page.
