I don't see the point in Pc emulators. If you have a PC game, why the hell do you need to emulate it onto your PC?

Now, console emulators I can understand! And I got myself a nice big pack of them, consisting of 17 emulators, yet no roms included. Damn them!

Everytime you download a ROM, a terrorist drowns a puppy! THINK OF THE PUPPIES!

Indeed, I agree Strafio. I have, erm, a vast collection of 'games' myself.

Nintendo are so mongtarded on that side.

"We hate emulation. It's morally wrong because it threatens our 15 billion dollar industry with 10 thousands of jobs!"

What about downloading games that aren't for sale anymore and therefore cannot detract from sales anyway?

"Nooooooo! It's our intelectual properteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! It's ILLEAGAL! ILLEAGAL!"


Oh well, it's not like anyone takes any notice of them anyway...

How about....

You either buy/chip the games.

Quite simple, actually.

Hmm if ROMS are illegal why are emulators (the things that run the ROMs) not?
