Re: Random: Nintendo's Museum Might Be Emulating SNES Games On Windows PC

Trikeboy

Nintendo has a problem with people distributing their ROMs, not the fact that ROMs exist. Stopping free distribution is about as far as they will go for most sites. They only go after people in court when they get financial gain from making their games available. Or, in the case of the Switch, that is current hardware and emulating it is costing them financially since they are currently making money from hardware and software sales.

Nintendo have been using emulators for years. The GBA Classic NES series was basically a cart with an emulator playing a NES ROM.

-leaks unrevealed information from Nintendo-

Mike: "I won't get in trouble for this"

-Gets fired for leaking unrevealed information-

Mike: -surprised Pikachu face-

Nintendo probably told Gamespot they will no longer provide any special editions or advanced knowledge of upcoming releases which would hurt Gamestop's bottom line.

Good to see the insecure men crying like Baby Mario over this. She lives in the Mushroom Kingdom and Mario has only been there for a day or two. Who else is going to train Mario how to survive in the Mushroom Kingdom. Also, Princess Peach hasn't always just been a damsel in distress. She has been a playable character that can hold her own in SMB games since 1988.

Ocarina of Time, I couldn't figure out how to get the Goron tunic. The door to the shop wasn't open and the shop owner doesn't sell the tunic to Child Link. I had no idea. I had to go get a strategy guide, which in the mid 90s meant I had to leave my house and go find the guide in a local store. I slapped my head when I read how to get it from the Prima Guide. Oh, and the universe punished me for looking at a guide. I opened the book right on the page where it reveals who Sheik is.
