Re: Soapbox: Nintendo's Maddening Stance On Retro Gaming Is Driving Me To Piracy

The current sytem sucks. It just does. Nintendo had a chance, a REAL CHANCE, to be awesome. Instead, they're giving us 20 warmed over, stale NES games, that virtually no one is excited for, with 3 more a month (yippee...) and not a WORD about SNES, GCN, GB, GBC, GBA, N64, Wii, DS...

Nintendo knows we want Mother 3, for instance. Imagine if they'd opened NSO with MOTHER 3, some SNES titles, the best NES titles, and, GASP, GAMECUBE! There would be no complaints.

All you guys saying the SNES Mini is a good substitute can suck it. Until it is READILY available everywhere, it is NOT a substitute.

Pirating roms is stealing? No s***, Sherlock. Nobody cares. Give it up already. Some games are literally impossible to play without pirating a rom.

I see the Nintendo Moral Guardians are out in force.
Yes, ROMs are technically illegal. Nintendo has the legal right to do this, but it does not have the moral right.

I want to play Mother 3, but I can't read Japanese. A ROM is a perfectly reasonable solution until Nintendo gets its head out of its butt and releases it here in America (which is obviously NEVER going to happen at this point).
Satellaview games would be lost forever without emulation. Why is letting good games get lost forever seen as acceptable and right?

Re: Soapbox: I'm Secretly Terrified Of An All-Digital Gaming Future

I am ambivalent toward digital. I've gotten a lot of digital games on my 3DS, but I much prefer physical.

Digital only does bother me because where I live we have truly crappy internet. It can take hours to download games digitally. I don't have patience for that [removed].
