You forfeit the right to claim you're not making the money you deserve when you stop trying to make that money. I don't claim I should be earning a paycheck if I stop showing up at work. If you want to earn money selling something you need to sell it.

Literally what's the problem?
It's not selling anywhere so you are not getting any profit in the first place.

>implying
Amazon does horrible things to old books that would make EA blush

He was always better as a Smash character than a racer anyway.

The Internet Archive actually has a DMCA exemption allowing them to host Nintendo ROMs for all systems except the Switch and 3DS because Congress decided that they had a legal right to preserve anything published on forms of media that was no longer in production.

If Nintendo wants to stop them, they have to start factories making square grey NES and SNES carts again.

Ironically, Nintendo DID win one claim in the same lawsuit against Internet Archive; forcing them to take down their PDFs of Nintendo Power Magazine back issues - imagine how much revenue Nintendo was losing from people illegally reading Yoshi's Island tips published 25 years ago

Except Nintendo never did that you dipshit. Mario 64 is still very much available on a variety of Nintendo platforms.

Wii, PS3, and Switch are still supported and emuniggers love that shitml.

fuck me atlus is so bad for this sort of shit, just release ports of your old games on modern consoles and pc ffs

nintendo doesn't give a shit about their consumers or games, only money

>What's the problem?
>It's illegal!
Wow nice argument?

They don't seem to actually give a shit about money either, it seems more like sheer spite

>you can't download old games, that's why we have the e-shop
>you're going to put this game in the e-shop?
>no

if it goes on for longer than a decade without including said ip in any games whatsoever, no crossovers, no remakes you should have every right to do as you please.

Yes and?

I'm surprised that after the praise things like Rondo of Blood and Greylancer got for being japan-only titles released overseas at last, Nintendo's only capitalized on obscure games once in Star Fox 2. Get some localizers, send up the Detective Club games or the Custom Robo entries, for christ sake at least do something that isn't shoot-em-ups that require as little effort as possible.

Nintendo is a fucking dictator about it

Sony doesn't care too much maybe in the past with PS1 but that's about it

Microsoft embraces it from what I've seen to bring more people to buy an Xbox(BC across generations)

Nintendo by far is the greediest about it. If they still sold their old consoles in stores/online websites brand new, people would infact still buy it. It's honestly really sad how far they search on the internet to hunt down sites.

IT'S ILLEGAL THEY COPYRIGHT IF YOU PIRATE THEN THEY GO OUT OF BUISNESS HAVE A HEART BUY SPEND PURCHASE

>The Internet Archive actually has a DMCA exemption
That's not actually true. They just wouldn't answer DMCAs.

You mean $20-30

>Microsoft embraces back-compat

but the playstation store has more old titles on it's listings than Xbox?

>If Nintendo wants to stop them, they have to start factories making square grey NES and SNES carts again.
Honestly I can imagine Nintendo doing this just to spite people who "pirate" roms.

This.
We could've had RE2/RE3/Dino Crisis/DC2 on Steam by now. Hell, RE2/RE3 initially had PC ports. Fucking Sony.

That is not really BC. Just games they put on the storefront for you to buy again. I like and prefer playstation but that is not BC.

That's because the PS3 had built-in PS1 emulation and support for PS1 games even down to their discs, and a massive library they worked up. Then the PS4 tossed out support for that and the PS1 game lists as a result, and what they allowed on the PS2 front was basic, limited and ultimately low-effort. Xbox One doesn't have inherent 360 or OG support, so they have to essentially make their own emulation stuff on a per-game basis, not to mention getting licensing out of the way and approaching the idea late in the Xbone lifespan. The backwards compatibility is on hold right now because they're planning to really push it into gear for the Series X, but they'll retroactively keep expanding it for the Xbone too.

Their intellectual property lol.
