It's called a ROM, and they're illegal.

That, or you can get them from Wii's Virtual Console, or Xbox Live (then again, I know jack about Xbox Live, but I know TMNT 2...or TMNT Arcade is on it now).

i was meaning like the dos ports and stuff ect as for emulators and roms, you can leagally use them if you own the console (emulator) and you can use the rom if you either buy it or you own the original cartridge, i know these well, your talking to a romnation suscriber of 2 years lol, i pay 45 per 3 months for my roms, but my gamepad is bust and keyboard is awkward on emulators for some reason

Then I'm confused. If you asking about these roms, and your a big rom user, then shouldn't you know where to find them?
I never did understand that rule. How the hell would they know if you own the original cartridge, and how the hell would they know if you removed it before the 24 hours you downloaded the game are up if you don't own the game? Those rules never make sense. But I don't mess with roms at all. I own all the NES, SNES, SEGA, and GB games I wanted to play, thanks to a Funcoland catalog...before Funcoland went out of business or whatever. And I could care less about GB, GBC, and GBA games. Only handheld game I need is Tetris.

try the abandon ware sites.. The abadon wares sites are filled with old pc games that has stopped selling and considered not illegal anymore.
