Dolphin emulates the Wii rather nicely, which runs the Virtual Console to emulate SSB. Alternatively, you could run a homebrew N64 emulator on Dolphin and run SSB on that.oh well then nvm, just to make things clear, Dolphin uses the same emulation method as the Wii Virtual Console?
If you have a decent computer, and the appropiate controls to avoid input lag it should be okay, but I think is easier to do on console, either 64 or Wii, just start the game, plug the controllers and no issues after all. With PC you have to deal with input lag unless you have the appropiate controllers and setups to avoid that.Dolphin emulates the Wii rather nicely, which runs the Virtual Console to emulate SSB.

we've all been through this.Lol I love how you try to be my friend online, but if I beat you twice you start to curse me out, end the game, and kick me out, sounds like some one needs to grow up
I personally would prefer something along the lines of what 20XX has, where you hold A+B (this could be a different combo of buttons) during the "Game Set" screen and it resets the match instead of going to the results screen. Easy for salty runbacks without having to switch a toggle on and off each time you want to use this feature.toggle for when the last stock is taken, game is just reset with fresh starts, start+reset to actually get out
Good luck with your exams. I am really looking forward to the next update!20XX style runback is already a thing in the dev version. again, school is a thing so I'll be back later
I'll be back at it in just over two weekspm me and ill help u
btw jorgz whens the end or ur semester
Sick release a rom and we'll be impressed. Otherwise stop advertising for your project here.Hello, i want to put a video....
What the **** did I just watch? I thought you spoke Spanish. Did you take a video of someone else and then edited in emulator footage into the TV? Also, why are you using a different account? There are so many questions.Hello, i want to put a video....
No, actually I said it. But thanx for not giving me any credit, I really appreciate it...As Cyjorg stated, talking of distributing illegal roms is strictly prohibited here on the boards.

Nothing about me providing a patch to N64 ROMs is illegal. those who legally aquire a ROM can do whatever they want with it. The messages the mod removed were literally just people asking to have the ROM provided to them which is obviously not legal.No, actually I said it. But thanx for not giving me any credit, I really appreciate it...
I guess there is a threshold area about what is considered legal or ilegal, for example, 20XX provides you with the Root Files since they are literally providing you a "disassembled" iso, so you only have to rebuild it and voila. I guess that also works with the ROM, since technically no one is providing copyrighted software, well I don't even know if this should be taken into account, another thing, I think there is some sort of law (I don't really know) that states that one may have any ROM of ANY game if you own it physically. For example, should people who own the SSB64 cartridge be able to download it anywhere on the internet as long as it is only that game for "backup" purposes. Where as people who don't own the game should be discouraged to download it before they can acquire it physically. Anyways people are just plain lazy, they ask for ROMs here when there are a ton of webzitez where you can download it, but no, they have to ask for the game here because they think this is a Smash Forum it is ok. Should you make a disclaimer in the very first post so they get it clear that even asking for a ROM here can result in a ban (or whatever punishment is better fitted for this purpose)As Cyjorg stated, talking of distributing illegal roms is strictly prohibited here on the boards.

Not sure what that law is exactly regarding ROM ownership if a physical copy is owned but I would imagine the law has some writing in it that doesn't allow downloading of a ROM. I imagine the law is more that if you own a physical copy it is legal to own a ROM of that copy but the download of a copy of the ROM that isn't pulled from you physical cartridge is illegal. However I don't think there is much of a way to tell a copy of your ROM is not the one pulled from your cartridge. Imagine it like there is a law that allows you to be in possession of weed but it is illegal to buy or sell it. Obviously there is a problem as in order to become in possession you probably need to buy or sell it, but the law doesn't punish possession, it punishes the means of possession (pretty sure this drug law is true in a lot of countries). So possessing a ROM that you acquired from your own physical copy is legal, but if the means of possessing the ROM is via download of someone elses copy that means is illegal.I guess there is a threshold area about what is considered legal or ilegal, for example, 20XX provides you with the Root Files since they are literally providing you a "disassembled" iso, so you only have to rebuild it and voila.

Wouldn't this fall under similar copyright law when talking about making backup copies of software and media for personal use or backup? Which is legal, but circumventing any copy protection on said media is illegal.Lol the copyright myth is still alive in 2016? At least with Nintendo, that is far from the truth. It doesn't matter if you own a copy of the original game. It's illegal. They have a FAQ of this on their site.
I'm assuming you're responding to GamingMaster who said it's legal if you back it up yourself, and he's not wrong. It's not a myth, and reading over their FAQ, it supports this fact (even though it's some tricky word play). Nintendo is obviously against roms and emulation, so of course they're going to do their best to make it SEEM illegal when it's not. Here's a breakdown of their FAQ to show the misleading word play. (Long post)It doesn't matter if you own a copy of the original game. It's illegal. They have a FAQ of this on their site.
The question asked here is if you can download a Nintendo ROM from the internet, even if you own the authentic game. Key word "Download" not "Own".Nintendo's FAQ said:Can I Download a Nintendo ROM from the Internet if I Already Own the Authentic Game?
Here they are saying that the backup/archival copy EXCEPTION is not valid when you simply take copyrighted work from somebody else, such as the internet, even if you have a copy of your own. It's already been stated in the thread that it's illegal to download a ROM, but simply owning one is not illegal if you have an authentic copy.Nintendo's FAQ said:There is a good deal of misinformation on the Internet regarding the backup/archival copy exception. It is not a "second copy" rule and is often mistakenly cited for the proposition that if you have one lawful copy of a copyrighted work, you are entitled to have a second copy of the copyrighted work even if that second copy is an infringing copy.
Here, they are going into further detail regarding the EXCEPTION to the rule. They use the words "very narrow limitation" to avoid saying HOW you can go about this and to further discourage it, but they acknowledge that the rightful owner of an authentic game does have the right to a copy to in the event of damage or destruction of the authentic.Nintendo's FAQ said:The backup/archival copy exception is a very narrow limitation relating to a copy being made by the rightful owner of an authentic game to ensure he or she has one in the event of damage or destruction of the authentic.
Again, they are answering the question. "Can I DOWNLOAD a Nintendo Rom from the Internet if I already own the authentic game myself?". Nothing is being said about your own personal backup.Nintendo's FAQ said:Therefore, whether you have an authentic game or not, or whether you have possession of a Nintendo ROM for a limited amount of time, i.e. 24 hours, it is illegal to download and play a Nintendo ROM from the Internet.
Fancy wording here, but quite misleading. Lets break it down and take a closer look.Nintendo's FAQ said:Are Game Copying Devices Illegal?
Yes. Game copiers enable users to illegally copy video game software onto floppy disks, writeable compact disks or the hard drive of a personal computer. They enable the user to make, play and distribute illegal copies of video game software which violates Nintendo's copyrights and trademarks. These devices also allow for the uploading and downloading of ROMs to and from the Internet. Based upon the functions of these devices, they are illegal.
Yes, they hold the potential to copy an illegal copy (your friend's) of your game, but they also have the ability to legal copy a game (your authentic copy). This isn't technically wrong, just misleading.Nintendo's FAQ said:Game copiers enable users to illegally copy video game software onto floppy disks, writeable compact disks or the hard drive of a personal computer.
Their definition of "game copiers" do ALL of the things they listed. They even clarify in the end "Based upon the functions of these devices, they are illegal." So, if your "game copier" does ALL of these things, then of course it is illegal. BUT, your traditional "game copiers" does not do these things, and using them legally (backing up your legal and authentic games) is perfectly legal. See court cases like Sony vs Connectix or Sony vs Universal.Nintendo's FAQ said:They enable the user to make, play and distribute illegal copies of video game software which violates Nintendo's copyrights and trademarks.

Now, there is something else further down the FAQ that reads:

Either way, we should stop talking about the legality and get this discussion back to focusing on the topic of the project.
Doesn't work on PJ64 anyways so were back to the drawing board. Again.I'll be willing to help pm me and I'll test asap
