Where sharing is a priority
Thanks for using Myrient! If you like what we are doing and want to help support our cause, please make a donation!
Myrient is a video game content archive where you can download content to use in emulators and on real systems. Everything is free and no account registration is required.
Yes. Myrient was created to give users an ad-free and malware-free experience.
Myrient is a portmanteau of the words "myriad" and "entertainment", referring to the countless amount of video game content that is difficult to access or no longer available legitimately.
If you like our service, you can support us by making a donation.
We also accept missing content from users like you. More details are in our Upload page.
No-Intro, Redump, and TOSEC are groups that catalog games.
No-Intro specializes in cartridge-based games and digital content, Redump specializes in disc-based games, and TOSEC specializes in both. TOSEC-ISO and TOSEC-PIX are auxiliary sets of TOSEC.
It is important to note that they are not distributors of video game content; rather, they provide checksums and hashes to help ensure content is a 1:1 dump of the original copy. Without them, preserving content would be very difficult or impossible.
The search feature is versatile for filtering out all content except for a certain type. Here are a few usage examples:
Here is a list of applications along with their support status:
If you would like to add an application to the list, contact us.
You may use Rclone to download entire directories from Myrient. For the best experience, we recommend you add --http-no-head to your commands. Please note that Wget is not supported due to the possibility of encountering unexpected errors.
It is most likely due to high traffic or poor routing from our servers to your ISP. You may use a download manager that has the ability to download with multiple connections. A list of supported download managers is above.
Multiple Portuguese internet service providers are blocking Myrient. If you are located in Portugal and are unable to connect to Myrient, please change your DNS to Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 to bypass the block. A guide on how to do that is located here.
When compared to the 7-Zip format, ZIP archives are easier to manage and use. The ZIP format usually does not require the installation of a third-party program.
The software we use to organize files (also known as a ROM manager) compressed those files by default. Unfortunately, it is not currently possible to change the files to be decompressed without breaking all of the files' URLs.
All content can be verified by calculating the size and checksums (CRC-32, SHA-1, SHA-256, and MD5) of the file(s) inside the ZIP archive and comparing them to what is presented on No-Intro for the No-Intro collection, Redump for the Redump collection, and dats.site for the GameCube RVZ, Wii RVZ, and Wii U WUX sets. If they match, the content has not been tampered with.
All ZIP files were compressed using a standard format called TorrentZip, which helps ensure all files compressed result in identical archives. The 8 characters after "TORRENTZIPPED-" represent the CRC-32 checksum of all the files in the archive's central directory. The string does not affect the data contained within the archive in any way.
As rom hacks are continuously updated and difficult to verify, Myrient will not offer pre-patched ROMs for download.
As content in sets are always being added or updated, they naturally also have to be updated anywhere else they are available. Torrents are impossible to update without using BitTorrent v2, which has support for mutable torrents but is not widely adopted yet and has caveats. From a realistic standpoint, no one would seed the torrents and it would just be a fancy form of direct downloading but with implied risks.
The RVZ format is unconventional by Redump standards and the only format Myrient offers for GameCube and Wii to save storage and bandwidth. If you already have the beta or development version of Dolphin, skip steps 2 and 3.

The WUX format is unconventional by Redump standards and the only format Myrient offers for Wii U to save storage and bandwidth. If you already have WudCompress, skip step 2.
