If you actually own the games, you can extract them from your game carts for personal use. Downloading games that you already own is considered by many to be "fair use" (especially by those who lack the resources to extract firmware images from a game cartridge).

If you read the MAME forums, you will see that a LOT of games are "abandonware" (created by long-defunct companies), and downloading them is generally considered as "fair use" as well.

Here is one of many such sites for game ROM downloading:

Be sure to download ROMs responsibly (such as games that you already own). Do not download games that have existing owners of their intellectual property, without permission from the IP owner.
