Doesn't use (proven) proprietary code made by the company in question, therefore it is completely legal and obviously they used their own dumped roms :)

Fun fact unofficial emulation is completely illegal in Japan
Wyatt Rodriguez
But that's not true? Modding consoles and save editing is illegal, but emulators themselves are completely legal. They make loads for all kinds of shitty home PCs. Why would you lie user :(
Andrew Cox
it's basically illegal. True emulators themselves aren't illegal, but since console modding is illegal there is no legal way to get roms, so theres no way to actually use the emulators to emulate games.
Joshua Brown
Yo dawg! Heard you like emulators, so we put an emulator in your emulator so you can emulate while you emulate
Mason Cruz
Japan is a fucking shithole.
Thomas Evans
I can sell you a crowbar but that doesn't make it illegal because you can use it to break into a house
Jaxon Walker
You can literally copy someones unpatented software as long as you actually write the copy yourself and don't just steal their source code

>make emulator in america
checkmate, japan
Samuel Bell
u dont need to modify ur console to dump roms. wtf r u on about
Matthew Thompson
So it's not basically illegal, it's legal. Many emulators for PC can just run floppies fine, but I'm sure those don't count. Many emulators can read CDs just fine, but I'm sure those don't count. Also you don't need to mod a console to dump games, there are specific tools for that and I'm quite sure those aren't illegal (yet).

Haha no.

Stop falseflagging faggot. You do this shit everyday.

Also tapes, very common for old Japanese computers.
You can literally use a stereoset or boombox, shove a dual jack in the mic port and into your PCs aux in and record with audacity or any other similar tool. You will probably have to use an application if the emulator doesn't support .wav. There you go, legal copy for another medium that will work with your legal emulator.

I'm surprised nintendo just hasn't attacked them with their lawyers yet. Unless they have and they just told the fuck off
Jackson Wood
Sony already tried in late-90s/early-00s and lost.
Hunter Jackson
Sony tried, and gave the emulation community a universal get-out-of-jail-free card with court precedent.

Maybe that's why Nintendo's cozying up with Disney
Bentley Williams
How are they cozying up to Disney?
Ryan Stewart
I was playing Illusion of Gaia on my PSX last week. SNES games play pretty well with the PSX controller.
Charles Hernandez
I've been out of the loop for a while but weren't they making deals with disney to use their character in smash and included some disney games on switch
Dylan Roberts
If we can overturn row v wade then I'm sure we can overturn this. Video game company's need to start lobbying like crazy.

Gaming would be so much more shit than it already is if that judge got up on wrong side of the bed that morning.
Nolan Cook
They didnt get shit besides a keychain logo of mickey mouse
Jackson Perez
>SBW and by extension the mouse will be common domain by 2023-2024
It's not going to work unless they push forward "Project Babel" with its desired end goal of preventing people from meaningfully communicating independently over the internet.
As it stands any further extension of copyright protection will likely be met by organized protest.
Bentley Sullivan
this is why. Google it if you're interested, it was basically a PSX emulator for PC or, weirdly enough, dreamcast. Sony tried to shut it down in court, lost the case, then it shut down anyway because they ran out of money because of the court fees
Brody Morgan
>human rights vs gamer rights
Yeah, not happening. Gamers are society after all. Emulation will stay legal everywhere as Nintendo is powerless to stop gamers. Even game devs emulate, even NINTENDO emulates. Explain that one to the judge Nintendo.
