I didn't even have issues finding ROMs before the 2000s... Maybe patched/translated ones yeah, but bare ROMs... I don't think so.

There was just less stuff in general on the internet back then, so it was more a case of less places to find them.

Super rare games or imports were sometimes hard to find that early in the game. It wasn't even just the age of the internet, but the age of the emu scene too.
