Yeah, when I want to emulate old games, I don’t really care if it’s legal or not, especially when I’m emulating it bcz it’s not available anywhere else.
Are you emulating it because it’s not available anywhere else? Because if you’re willing to put in the effort, most games are available elsewhere. Just because it’s not at GameStop doesn’t mean it isn’t “available”.
But yeah, I don’t emulate new stuff. I emulate old stuff. And with even Nintendo’s digital stores closing down and being replaced with subscriptions, sailing the seas becomes more and more promising of a solution.
I mean, finding NES games that still play and dont require repair isn’t simple for a lot of titles. Not to mention the hardware requires modding in order to work on modern televisions.
I’d call that “not available” or if we want to split hairs “not reasonably available”.
Most games aren’t available elsewhere.
There are a good amount of retro games have rereleased, but it’s mainly the popular titles and when you look at the whole picture that is just a small percentage of retro games.
Not even all of Nintendo’s first party games are available.
