How do I play ROMs?

Emulation FAQ: ROMs
With an emulator for the system the ROM runs on. NESticle plays NES ROMs, ZSNES plays SMC(Super Nintendo) ROMs, and so forth. Usually, just open the ROM in the GUI (Load ROM) or type emulator gamename at the DOS prompt, where emulator is the name of the emulator and gamename is the name of the ROM image. See the readme.txt for more instructions.

Gametown... EMULATION SOFTWARE and ROMS FREQUENTLY ASKED QUE...
In the world of emulation, things are not perfect. Mimicking the functionings of an arcade machine or a home console is not easy, as the emulator's designer does not have access to the original information and blueprints used to design the arcade/home console s/he is trying to emulate. So, from time to time, a game ROM will not work correctly on an emulator. This applies mostly to console emulators. See similar questions...

Do you verify your ROMs? If so, how?

ROM-Burner FAQ
For the MAME™ ROMs, I use the latest version of ClrMAME Pro not only to verify the ROMs themselves but also the .zip archives that contain them. Regarding the Good and TOSEC sets, I use GoodWindows with the appropriate database for each set and TUGID for the TOSECs. All of the files for these sets have been extracted from their zipfiles, renamed/verified then zipped back up. This was the most accurate way I could think of to be sure of what I have. See similar questions...

Why do you charge to get some roms and not others?

EmuAsylum
Again it comes down to bandwidth and resources. No other sites that do not do what we do offer Sega CD and other large ISOs for this exact reason, it is just too big a drain and too costly. Charging a small one time fee prevents freeloaders from draining the server to download games they are never going to play, just so they can have it. It also gives the site the ability to upgrade to larger hard drives and more bandwidth for everyone. See similar questions...
