how did lemmy piracy suddenly turn to defending nintendo...
nintendo pulls rom sites down, sure - it's their shit (https://www.pcworld.com/article/402404/nintendo-suit-rom-emulation-game-preservation.html)
Nintendo is using roms from these sites to sell to consumers within their own "ecosystem" (https://www.eurogamer.net/did-nintendo-download-a-mario-rom-and-sell-it-back-to-us)
Not even close to all of nintendos titles are avaliable on their online stores, and the mini-snes or whatever did not have even close to all their titles.
point is. Nintendo is NOT preserving their own games. And they sue anyone doing anything like preserving it for the public.
Then please explain the Dolphin Emulator to me
what? whaddya mean? the fact that it exists?

or the fact that nintendo doesn't want it to "spread" Come here without defending big megacorpo or leave please
That literally says theory in the title
This isn't even your instance and you are telling me to leave lmao
