Re: Nintendo Lawsuit
When it was time to add Super Mario Bros. for the NES to the Virtual Console Nintendo had lost all copies of the original ROM so they downloaded an SMB ROM from the Internet and added it to the VC.
SMB is one of the most popular and profitable games of all time and if we had left it up to Nintendo to archive it, it would be lost. If that could have happened to SMB, think of the chances of less popular games surviving without emulation and ROM archiving.
They have a legitimate complaint about Love Retro but they are missing the point when they create a blanket statement that all emulation is bad or that all emulation hurts them.
