Actually, I mentioned that I played Earthbound through emulator when I was younger... I don't have a SNES no do I have the money to drop $300 on a cart-only copy. As far as the ethics of emulation, I think the forum community did discuss it over here -> http://vgcollect.com/forum/index.php/topic,1341.0/topicseen.html It's true, the developer gets no money from ROMs, but that's not to say we don't want to give them money. I'm sure if they decided to republish Earthbound, we'd all be happy to give them money. |

I'd gladly give my money to the developers that are still "in the game". ;) |

I mean, having music that sounded like other people's music hasn't stopped Chrono Trigger, FF7, Donkey Kong Country 3, Mega Man X3, Mega Man 1 and all the genesis Sonic games (amongst others) from being re-released. --- End quote --- The issue with the music isn't that it "sounds like other people's music", the problem is that it actually is other people's music. I know there are a few songs that are similar to other songs, but the Runaway Five's theme is a direct copy of The Steve Miller Band's song Space Cowboy, just without words. They didn't even try to change it up a little. It's blatantly obvious to anyone who knows the song. |

And it was just a placeholder for all the words they weren't allowed to say there. |
