I've had an idea that could possibly be the future of retro gaming!

There should be something like napster for classic games that aren't sold anymore or are legal to be emulated (Like spectrum games)so people can share them for others to use!

We'd be able to play classic games whenever we wanted and could download more if needed! I know I'd be one of the first to sign up!

But then there's the problem with people who break the copyright laws and try to give away roms for new games.
Napster are having a similar problem with the people who are copying music tracks from CD's and sticking them on napster!

Anyway it's just an idea!

The future of Retro gaming is this all classic games will be stuck into one gamecube or PS2 disc and everyone will dish out cash to play the golden oldies while companies will keep bringing back old favourites.

Do you remember an old Rare character called Sabreman well he makes an appearence in Banjo Tooie and when he finishes talking he goes to sleep and says "i think i'll have a ride on a the dolphin" hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
