Speaking of ROMS...
I just am too afraid to use one.
I feel like using ROMS is a big slap in the face to the creators of the game.

That depends on what your emulating. If youre emulating nes/snes/gba/gamecube games then thats no propblem because Nintendo isnt offering their consumers the ability to purchase their products and theyre making no profit off of people buying them used. If youre emulating a switch game than yes your spitting in the faces of the developers

THE BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT IS THAT DESPITE POKEMON BEING AROIND SINCE 64, WE DON'T HAVE PROFESSOR POKEDEX CALLS LIKE THE CODEC CALLS

Hire me.

wish granted, it's now the rotomdex

a single finger creaks up on the monkey's paw

 

[Will]

anyway i've always wondered what kind of stirring intellectual discussions mario and kirby could have

probably something like

"bing bing wahoo!"
"poyo poy poyo poy!"
"yipeeeeee"

certainly worth the dozens of hours of extra production time to come up with 5625 unique character-on-character interactions in a cast that's 80% silent or unintelligible

hyup hoop hyah
I've seen war. How it changes people. How society has used war to make profit and reap the people themselves as your cash cow. The innocent lives that undergo so much torture without them knowing. Everything tha-

If you can't directly buy the game in stores or digitally then by all means I feel it should be ok. You'll otherwise have to resort to the secondhand market and in some cases that just costs a ludicrous amount of money. HELL no was I going to pay 100 euros for Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon. If you pirate Ike's games then it doesn't matter as Nintendo's not going to make any money off of you buying a 300 dollar secondhand copy

I understand.
It is just, I want to play Wii, N64, DS games, etc that are common ( XC1, Mario 64, etc. ). These games can be bought for ten dollars on Amazon. Well, maybe not Mario 64 and some 64 games.
I am scared Nintendo will find out if I am pirating somehow.

There would be dialogue here, but Square Enix charges by the letter.

Yeah imagine downloading a Hotel Dusk ROM and depriving Cing of their hard earned cash...

OH WAIT.
THEY'RE DEAD.

 

[Will]

Pirating games is wrong. Think about the game creators!

ROMs on your PC are pirating, technically speaking.

You could buy Nintendo's official ROMs/emulators on the e-shop

 

[redfeatherraven]

Though I was the only one who noticed how dumb that was.

Oh no.

The trash lines. They call to me.

Also that's seriously ****in cool.

wish granted, it's now the rotomdex

Real talk.

I'd be all for it.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Seriously though I've owned a PS3 for about 10 months and in a very short amount of time I have concluded Sony handles their digital market SIGNIFICANTLY better than Nintendo ever has by constantly having loads of games get discounted, not just those games you haven't heard about but **** like MGS, DMC, Resident Evil, etc. Nintendo doesn't like discounting bigger titles at all but to make things worse is that they keep dripping **** on their service. The ENTIRE NES library should have been on the NES Online service day 1 and it took them until the end of the Wii U's life cycle to add ****ing Pokemon Snap on the virtual console whem it was already on the Wii's virtual console

 

[Wademan94]

Some characters like Mario and Link I can see having spoken dialogue, others like DK or Kirby I see more just having noises and sounds but everyone is capable of understanding them regardless.

 

[Will]

There would be dialogue here, but Square Enix charges by the letter.

* noises*
Psycho Mantis?

 

[Idon]

DK

Who can not only talk, but sing, along with K Rool.

Nobody.

****ing.

Post it.

 

[Will]

Link I can see having spoken dialogue

We're not gonna bring him back no matter how much you beg.

This was embedded in the tweet I shared yesterday. Hopefully it’s easier to understand.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

they won't find out, and they don't care. They only care about the people distributing the ROMs, not the people playing them. Also keep in mind that a lot of the time when you buy old games, that money isn't actually going towards nintendo anymore.

 

[Wademan94]

I’m imagining that it’s only the case when there aren’t other beings around. Think about it, when was the last time you saw an actual human in the DKC cartoon?

 

[Schnee117]

Nobody.

****ing.

Post it.

I had a different bit in mind

 

[Deleted member]

ROMs I think are fine with things that are pretty much impossible to get otherwise or don't give the cerator any profit.
Like, literally the only way to get say, Silent Hill 4 anymore is to dump a load of cash on Ebay, none of which goes to anybody involved in the game.

Nah dont worry about that

What are you talking about? Nintendo does discount their major titles! Have you not seen these 5 cent discounts on their games?

 

[Gentlepanda]

new poll time:

• team lawful: 2 characters at e3
• team neutral: 1 character at e3
• team chaotic: no characters at e3

Geez dude, have more faith in me than that! I imagine Link talking nowadays would be treated with much more dignity.

Meanwhile all they have to do to fight piracy is actually ****ing release their games. If they announced Tellius HD on the Switch I would no longer consider pirating the Tellius games

Pffft, as if I am going to pirate.
I must respect the workers who work hard on the game by giving them my money.
It does stink that money does go to some bad workers, though.

Well Xenoblade Chronicles 1 is on the Wii U Eshop for like 20 bucks. Before you go pirating anything just look on Nintendo.com to see if they offer the game somewhere. The Wii U has N64 and DS emulation as well.

you understand that the workers stopped getting money for GBA games about 13 years ago, right

[Dyllybirdy]

Dang it, I meant pirating!
Pirating games is wrong. Think about the game creators!

Depends what game you're "pirating", really. Like, if a certain game has never been rereleased by the publisher (or can't be for legal reasons, mostly due to a developer losing the license to making games based off certain films, and such) on more modern systems, there isn't really much of another alternative. Unless you want to play the games on the original hardware that is, but these kinds of games, if they've never been rereleased, tend to become super rare and expensive...

 

[redfeatherraven]

I had a different bit in mind

Hold on.

I've got this reaction around here somewhere.

Lemme just root around for a sec-

There it is.

Pirating is stealing, and technically Nintendo could send me to juvenile if they wanted to, or file a lawsuit against my family if they find out.
I think I am exaggerating, but still.

 

[Roberk]

To be fair lots of GBA games are on the virtual console so you can still officially buy the games and support the developers.

Nintendo when drip feeding content through their poor online service and having people defend it and everyone reluctantly pays for it so they can keep playing their favourite games online

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

If they give Link A voice, I hope its Yuri Lowenthal

 

[Idon]

What? Really?

Yes really.

Where do you think your money goes when you buy off a random dude online? It isn't going into a videogame company, I'll tell you that much.
