About stuff for improve the image quality, I am fine with it but some of these mods are really pricey, like the HDMi N64 one for example. --- End quote --- O yea definitely especially mario kart wii online is awesome in the current era pretty active still. |

If its legal emulation/ROMs or its something intended to be distributed by it's creator, sure, I'm fine with it. I'm also okay with having back-ups of owned games, that's understandable with the way old hardware and even old games break or corrupt. But I feel theft is still theft and not okay if you're just looking to get free games; and I completely understand that's not a popular opinion. But I stick to my morals and beliefs. |

Unless you really love to play games with guides or not understanding what one has to do. not really being able to fully enjoy the game unless you go for those fan translations piracy roms. The developers never have any intention to make any money from the west if you go that route. |

Lame to do with recent games, especially AAA games. If it's anything before gen 8 I honestly don't mind. I emulate wii games on my computer and have homebrew for the Wii, gamecube, and DS. When the technology is new it's actually harming the companies, but Nintendo isn't going to see a cent of a $200 Pokemon HeartGold DS cartridge sold at Gamestop. Go ahead and emulate it in a way higher resolution and a higher framerate. Still applies to crap like NSO. We already bought all those games probably physically AND on the wii's virtual console. Between a physical copy, virtual console and 3D all stars you've spent $100 on the same game of Mario 64... When Nintendo does sleezy stuff like this, I have no problem emulating, or better yet, running the unofficial PC Port of Super Mario 64 with ray tracing. They can pry the port from my cold dead hands. Looking forward to the potential OOT PC port! It's all decompiled! |

Wether Nintendo or any other company offers old games as online downloads it's only on current gen console, They will never give the service to let one experience it on og hardware. Or ofcourse in Nintendo's case no option to play it on pc or with your controller of choice. plus the emulation can be allot worse than the og I don't feel online downloads for old games count. |
