and I'll add this to the list of troll replies, cutting off at the first line, typical troll behavior too.
this is an emulation site, arguing flat-out legality is trolling, because the majority here recognize that the law(s) are broken.
my point was more that Nintendo would be better acknowledging the same and looking at a more careful approach like most of the others because following the letter of the law isn't even necessarily of benefit to them either, and that their actions could quite easily be costing them income by forcing people down other more expensive avenues.
if there's one thing they don't seem to be touching it's the big money commercial piracy, there are still bootleg multi-games in expensive modern cabinets full of Nintendo stuff all over the place, bootleg NES based stuff in brand-name shops etc. and repro (bootleg) carts going for more than the original retail prices for some of the uncommon games too. Some tiny rom site basically nobody had ever even heard of until this came up isn't significant, heck even the places offering switch and wii u rips have been left entirely alone, when those likely are bringing in a lot of money.
