Technically, you’re allowed to make copies for personal use unless doing so requires bypassing DRM, encryption, or some other lockout mechanism.
Emulation is still not piracy and neither is making a personal backup, but if making that backup requires anything more than a standard disc drive or a cart reader then it is a DMCA violation.
lets say you have spend 10 years making a game. and you put it on steam for $10. but wait. you are making $0 dollars because everyone is just pirating it, and then demanding you make a second one.
The reality is that Nintendo removed your ability to buy those old games for $10, because they’d rather rent you those games forever on their subscription service. If they were on Steam for $10, I’d have bought those old ROMs.
Just FYI. Make sure that any link to GitHub is saved locally OR there is a mirror available. GH is going after emulators quite a bit, especially forks! This is coming from one that helps out from time to time in the software.
If only there was some sort of berg of code that happenes to have the forks available. Too bad there isnt such a website ;)
Thanks again making these posts! I learned quite a few new projects to throw on my SD.
I really liked this game, but I used all my unlock points on the wrong squads and couldn’t progress any further to get new ones. I wish they hadn’t bound the unlock currency to getting achievements with each squad. It made it so if I bought one I ended up hating there was no shot of getting any money back. Otherwise it’s a great game though.
First of all, thank you for doing these, more original content is always welcome and appreciated! I really like your writing style and that the subjects you cover are just things you find interesting, whether they're related or not. Like you said, it's more of a old gaming blog style, which is cool.
I also played the shit out of Abuse back in the day but never finished it, so thanks for the excuse to give it another go. Although I did find the 15 fps limit added to the charm of the game, so to speak. But I'll try this new version.
I need to fix the desktop side of my switch so I can install decky and all the other cool add-ons. Dunno what happened but the password set on the konsole doesn’t work and I have to reset something.
