Just type in google or you can check on torrents as well. I know the torrent are illegal but everyone is using it so you should try it. you can find it everywhere. you can play online as well

you didn't get it right. torrents aren't illegal, it's what you're sharing that will make the difference.

you can also wait the game becoming public domain, after some more decades! ;)

Regarding the downloads, it varies from one country to another. In some counries it's not legal but laws are rarely enforced. In other countries, it may be legal if you own the actual cartridge (for backup purposes) and in some countries it's legal for evaluation puroposes and you must delete your download within 24 hours.
On the server side, it seems Sega and Tec Toy have not complained. If this was a Ni****do fan site, the site owner would have rceeived a Cease & Desist letter from Ni****do long ago :)
I don't know whether it's legal to host ROMs in general. It is illegal to bundle ROMs with emulators, though. On the other hand, copyright for the older games have expired, and I don't know of anyone who has been jailed for downloading or hosting ROMs. Just stay away from the evil N, and everything will be fine :)
