My pronouns are she/her. You can call me ScratchySoft or Scratchy. Not Soft though. That’s weird.

I’d list what accounts I have on other platforms to discourage impersonation, but the character limit is too short.

  • For me I’m just trying to find information on how to safely download games and figure out what is and isn’t a virus and how to avoid getting hit with scary letters from my ISP. I know for the latter I can use Mullvad or something, but I don’t know what kind of antivirus to use. Apparently a lot of them see a crack and go off about that rather than checking further to see if it’s actually malicious. This mainly applies to newer games that run with exe files or other executables.

    I’ve also been trying to find good sites that have games for retro systems like the NES, Genesis, and DS (yes, I’m counting the DS as retro for the purpose of this post) that aren’t just easy to find in any No-Intro, Redump, or MAME database. You can find No-Intro stuff pretty much anywhere, at least for most of the sets. Same with Redump to a lesser extent. MAME/MESS is a bit harder, but not impossible. But trying to find anything that isn’t in those is incredibly difficult. FC Gallery is alright for NES/Famicom stuff, though other than that, I’ve got nothing.
