Right now I'm downloading Chu Chu Rocket and it has 2 Megaupload links? I know I download both of them. And then I put in the code for each. But which one do I extract the files so I can get the CDI thing, so I can put it in Discjuggler?

When u burn the game it will fit in a cd. That's just the image size. Don't worry. Only a few games are meant for 99 min cd's and almost all of them work just as fine on a plain old CD-r. It is supposed to be that big. It will work.

From what I can see everything is going great. I'm on snesorama just downloading everything I see basically. So I just need to go and buy like a 100 pack of cd-r's and I should be fine. Thanks for your guys help. I really appreciate it.

Yea I'm trying to download those ones. But not every game that I wan't has the DCRes. Does it really matter? I mean all you really get getter faster load times and less noise right? I mean those are the ones that I'm trying to download..

Well some games aren't in DCRES, such as:

4x4 Evolution

The Rule of thumb is:

If Theres a DCRES Release use it, if not use whatever you want.
