What "No-Intro" does is fill some .dat files, to be used with
ROM-Managers, with information about the known ROMS released. Often
there are more versions of the same ROM dump, but most of them are
garbage, some examples may include: bad dumps, hacks, fakes, overdumps,
underdumps, and so on. "No-Intro" lists only the best available ROM; it
must be a full dump with no faults and no changes to the file, basically
just the ROMS that are the closest as possible to the original licensed
cartridges.
This contains all of the publicly available ROMS in
all of the No-Intro sets except for the "Nintendo - Nintendo 3DS",
"Nintendo - Nintendo 3DS (DLC)", and "Nintendo - Nintendo DS" sets as of
2016-01-03.

Please ignore the message about it not working, every file works just fine. Message was sent by a bot and it contains malicious link.

Oh my god. To think that I've been downloading games individually off of shoddy rom websites for most of the time I've been emulating. This contains nearly everything. I got a few updated collections to replace what wasn't already here, but this contains basically everything.
One question, though. The real No-Intro collection is a data file for rom managers. How did you get and assemble this collection, as the No-Intro team directly stated themselves that they did not support downloading roms? An answer would be greatly appreciated.

UNLOCK THE FILES YOU MORONS. What possible reason could you have for locking these files down? If you're going to do that, REMOVE THE LIST FROM THE WEBSITE.
Having a useless list/link sort of goes against the entire purpose of this website. FIX THIS NOW.

I know that the files are down right now, but if you can find the torrent floating around the internet, you can still download the ROMs!

Subject: Mother 1+2 Missing?
Apologies to be a bother... Doesn't seem like I should be putting this in the reviews section but I'm not sure how else to bring this to the attention of the folks who put this lovely package together.
It seems as though Mother 1+2 are absent from this collection. I triple checked to make sure. The folder, when downloaded, is completely empty. I'm not sure why this would be. Every other ROM I've ever gotten from this collection has been perfect, but this one just... Isn't there at all.
Just to be 100% clear, I am speaking of the Mother 1+2 Japanese release, for the Game Boy Advance. If anyone else could verify my claims by checking, that would be appreciated.

This Rom seems to be corrupt. The second level has severe graphical glitches when run on both the Nestopia emulator and an NES mini.

Subject: No-Intro Collection 2016-01-03 Fixed
I really appreciate all the work that has gone into the No-intro sets. IMHO No-intro is a huge improvement over the "Good" sets. Using DAT files, Romcenter, and Goodsets I created my own No-Intro sets back in 2013, and did not update them until here recently, thanks to these uploaded on Archive.org, which put a smile on my face, just to see them here. Anyway for those concerned, I downloaded the zip files, and tested them with 7-zip, and it's all good. Thank you for preserving not just games, but what has become part of pop culture for future generations. Right on!

Subject: Torrent missing many items
SNES for example is missing from torrent, but is in the zip downloads.
Suggestion: redo the torrent properly.
[Edit] +OnLegality:
In the Nordics (also in EU?) one is legally allowed to copy a computer game for backup purposes and maybe share it with friends (slightly unclear on that), but only if one owns said game. Downloading a backup is/might be acceptable.

Subject: Problems With The Torrent File
The torrent file is missing some things that there are zip downloads for. Also, the trackers are saying that "the requested download is not authorized for use with this tracker".
