Is it back up or not? I had an email yesterday informing me a thread I had posted in had received a reply, however, the site is still down.

It's apparently up if you use TOR, not vanilla internet.

So will we have to use TOR for the foreseeable? Never used it before to be honest.

No idea. While cs.rin.ru is struggling with their provider I'm guessing one of the staff is running it privately (and thus chose to use TOR to encrypt and obfuscate traffic).

It's pretty simple to just get a TOR-browser. I don't have the tor-address though, you'll have to ask someone else about that.

I have sorted it, as you say, very easy to use, thanks.

No, I was using it this morning. But despite what they wrote I think Nintendo hit them with C&D after they pulled of the Retro Gamer.

It's not like it is the only place to get them. That being said, I thought they only hosted GOG. Did that change? So what about Cuntendo?

They hosted regular releases from scenes and last month or so they started hosting roms including Nintendo.
And Cuntendo recently made a high scale antypiracy move, sueing LoveROMS and LoveRETRO for hundred million dollars and killing among others Emuparadise in the fallout.
Somehow GOD and emuparadise had very similar tone of farewell message, threatning messages, complains yadayada, not risking the futures of the team members.
The shutdown happened right after they started the ROM part of their site with GOG knowing of their existance for much, much longer and both parties didn't give a shit about it.

Yeah, I knew about loveroms and such. Just didn't know GOD started with ROMs as well.
Pitty, it was a nice public site for once. Never made use of it since I got my regular places but still sad to see them go.

GOD was a wonderful place to get patches or grab small releases while waiting for them to filter elsewhere. Fast, tons of mirrors, always organized (they'd remove patches no longer needed), and squeaky clean. Such a goddamned shame to see it go. Crying or Very sad

It was, I hope another site rises from the ashes. Or there is an alternative.

I used IGG before I found out GOD. Yeah the site is full of popups and java overlays but that's nothing an adblock and script wouldn't manage.
But I have never had any issue with the releases they posted there. GOD of course was better but I don't care. Never cought a virus or some malware from IGG.

IGG watermark their releases, so the files have been tampered with on that level, for a start Wink
