"Stop fighting your tools. Start playing your games."
OpenROM is a desktop app that converts ROM files between formats — no terminal, no googling command syntax, no headaches.
You drag a file in. You pick where you want it to go. You click Convert.
That's it.
If you've ever tried to convert a PS1 BIN to CHD, you've probably been here:
chdman createcd -i "game.cue" -o "game.chd"
And then you forgot the flags. Or the CUE was missing. Or you had 40 games to convert and wanted to cry.
OpenROM fixes all of that — batch processing, auto CUE generation, live progress, one click.
| You have | You want | OpenROM handles it |
|---|---|---|
| PS1 BIN/CUE | CHD | ✅ |
| PS2 ISO | CHD or CSO | ✅ |
| GameCube ISO | CHD | ✅ |
| Xbox ISO | XISO | ✅ |
| ECM file | ISO or BIN | ✅ |
| CHD | back to ISO/BIN | ✅ |
| CSO/ZSO | back to ISO | ✅ |
