That's the reason that site for ROM downloads wasn't immediately nuked.Yeah pretty much, since you can theoretically make your own ROM without much of an issue playing a ROM of a game you already own is fine.I used to play pokemon emulators when I'd lost the cartridges, I could have easily downloaded the ROMs for the most recent 3DS games at the time too, but I don't think that's right (nor is it legal) given that I didn't own them myself. Now that I do, I could but I'd rather play them on the 3DS anyway <.<But yeah, emulators aren't inherently wrong at all.If you are using them to avoid paying for content, then yeah that's obviously bad.Unfortunately, due to Nintendo policy, it's still a big fat no no.From Nintendo's corporate information page:SpoilerThere is a good deal of misinformation on the Internet regarding the backup/archival copy exception. It is not a "second copy" rule and is often mistakenly cited for the proposition that if you have one lawful copy of a copyrighted work, you are entitled to have a second copy of the copyrighted work even if that second copy is an infringing copy. The backup/archival copy exception is a very narrow limitation relating to a copy being made by the rightful owner of an authentic game to ensure he or she has one in the event of damage or destruction of the authentic. Therefore, whether you have an authentic game or not, or whether you have possession of a Nintendo ROM for a limited amount of time, i.e. 24 hours, it is illegal to download and play a Nintendo ROM from the Internet. So no, it is still very much illegal to own and use Nintendo ROMs. Emulators themselves are a grey area, and you won't get in trouble for having them. But ROMs are clearly labeled within copyrighted domain.

Thats probably why he can't wrap his head around mods.
you know what i use to "pack files"my fucking harddrive.i don't need "winrar"incan is an idiot
am i being tricked right nowis this serious or not i can't tell
Quote from: Incan on August 16, 2015, 11:31:23 PMam i being tricked right nowis this serious or not i can't tellyou still haven't explained how you shouldn't be able to just double click on an icon to immediately play the gamewhy do you have to download five thousand fucking programs, and why is that better than playing on the original, real deviceyes, anything more than A SINGLE BUTTON PRESS is an overcomplication--it shouldn't take any extra downloads at allthe fact that you can't understand this is pathetic
you download 3 things, one is commonly used (win rar)
It's all super, super simple to use.

All I'm getting from this is that Verb wants life to be a perfect cake walk where his every want is delivered instantly. are you saying you wouldn't want that?
