Hey guys, I have been making a gameboy emulator for my college project, and i was wondering what the legality around cartriges are.
If i buy a cartrige and dump it, i can legally use it.
But what if i have a cartrige but no dumper, can i just downlaod a rom online and since i have the game its fine?
This emulator will only be used personally and wont be distributed, and the game roms are purely to show the funcionality lf the emulator.

P.S.
Yes, I know there are other roms for testing like Blargggs but i also wanted to show that it can actually run a game yk?

Thanks guys any help would be appreciated
