I wanna archive some older systems but don’t know what romsets are real or not, anyone know good romsets? Mainly for older systems, like SNES and earlier +GBA

    You might want to check out curated collections like Tiny Best Set. It will cut out a large amount of low-tier titles.

    If you are into reviews and box art I feel like the easiest option would be to look at ES-DE, LaunchBox, or RetroArch depending on your device.

    It seems like you are looking for some kind of middle ground between sets and individually picking ROMs so I am not sure.

    I also don’t know what you meant by “don’t know what romsets are real or not”.

        Most of the time that should be very easy to filter out. Was it not tagged with Unl (Unlicensed) or Pirate in brackets after the ROM name?

        It’s the same thing you would usually do to delete ROMs in foreign languages.

        That said there are a lot of unlicensed homebrew games out there that are genuinely great like Micro Mage for the NES
