Emulation is shit for PC poorfags that can't enjoy a console

I want to kill all wojak posters

No it's for people who don't want the games on said consoles to fail to be preserved.

I would not be able to play some of the most important games from my childhood if it weren't for emulation since they are no longer for sale and my old consoles are broken.

absolutely based

Preservation my ass, my nintendo 64 from 1999 still works.
You just want free games

ban wojak faggots

Why would I buy an old console when I can emulate all it's games on pc with minimal issues?

Do you even know what preservation is about?

You are literally retarded.

Oh I'm sorry user, I didn't realize you, a total stranger that doesn't know me, knew more about my intentions than I did. I didn't know that because your old consoles worked, mine didn't.

God, I was foolish, obviously I just wanted to steal everything instead of playing games I liked as a kid that I already owned but on modern hardware with resolution enhancements.

I'm indifferent to it. I prefer to play games in their original medium, but if people don't want to they're free to use emulators. Personally I think something intangible is lost when you use an emulator. It feels soulless.

Your still making this thread?

One more reason to build a PC

Consolewar wojakshit should be a bannable offense.

World class retard

>all of this cope because you get told to take better care of your things
Maybe stop being a beaner huemonkey chimp and wash your hands every now and then so they don't break lol

why is it always the nintendies that seethe the hardest over emulation?

>NOOOOO YOU CAN'T JUST SIMPLY MAKE FUN OF NINTENDO AND ITS BRAINDEAD BOOTLICKING FANS IT'S ONLY ALRIGHT IF WE SPAM WOJAKS

>do you want nintendo to die?
yes

Everyone hates you wojak posters

Because it exposes their consoles as cheap underpowered shit that can be emulated in seconds and Nintendo as greedy bastards who deliberately gimp their consoles for maximum profit.

It's ok to emulate anything you can't buy in a way the developers that did the game profit from it.

It wasn't my fault, my father put things into a shed against my wishes, and then like a fucking idiot, left a candle in there, I wake up to my mother screaming bloody murder in a way that I have never heard her scream before, I walk outside, and the trailer with all of my shit in it is burning in a fire bigger than any fire I have ever seen in my life. I'm still quantum mad at him for it.

>mininal issues
so you can play them with zero issues, you literal retard

ban wojak faggots

I don’t hate them.

I copy all my games and make my own ROMs. Kys

Not for free you can't.

You know what you are doing is against the law right? I sincerely hope you get arrested

Be honest. You didn't make this thread to talk about emulation did you?

He wanted to larp as a moralfag on a crusade against emulation and piracy.

I like you user, it's been a while since I've seen such biting sarcasm on this board.

I hate corporate bootlickers, and wojak faggots. Frogs are just as bad.

Spotted the tendie.

Still his point stands that others who want to experience the old consoles would benefit from emulation. Buying a rereleased n64 would just be quick cashgrab that is pointless.

What point is there in the preservation of old games if people do not play those games you absolute fucking retard?

>moralfagging on Zig Forums
ishygddt

keep dreaming and seethe baby

It's a good thing many laws are just not enforced, because it would be fucking hell if they were.
You probably would be hanged for now for having done something obscure and retarded.

>muh laws
ok megacuck don't think for yourself at all.

Only was sarcasm, was actually a true story, it sent me into a depression till I found emulators because old games were the only connection to my childhood I had left.

oh my god are you a real person? go back to drinking your onions pussyboy

>You just want free games
Yes, that's true. For argument's sake, though, cartridges can die because they have a limited life span, unlike data.

Rom dumping and specially disk dumping is a necessary evil.
Things are supposed to go to public domain, and if you don't dump em and preserve em, they disappear, turn into lost media and are never allowed to enter public domain ever.

Enjoy burning in hell forever lmao

Great for older titles and the only way to preserve vidya properly.

Shit that still gets sold tho is kinda scummy. But if my 3rd world bros can't afford it, I won't hold it against them.

Emulation is cool and good because it's some of the only dedicated archival for video games you ca find.

IMO all game devs should have to submit a copy of source code to a specific archival institution.

I would ask why Nintendies are like that, but why is when Zig Forums is presented an issue they can’t answer, they flip their shit and demand for the user posting it to be banned?

Be honest (I’ll do it for you), you don’t hate Wojaks. You hate your ideology being challenged.
If OP presented the same thread but with Wojak cropped out, you would still be flipping your shit over it, because you know he’s right and you can’t make up an excuse.
Guess what faggots?
All the crying you are doing will matter even less than before since it’s now illegal to ban users for posting something legal.

>consolecuck
>retarded
Everytime.

It should be used for preservation rather than piracy but the line is so blurred I can't possibly get upset when it's used for the latter

>entitled getting things for free
>GIMME DAT
>mental gymnastics to justify their actions
>chimp out when called out
mhh where have I seen this behaviour before?

I think emulation is great but I think you should stop being a faggot and make a different thread

i appreciate this genuine honesty from a retard

>Burning in hell for going against retarded long copyright laws

Why are Nintendofags the only retards that keep eating up shit and blindly defending all the scummy stuff Nintendo does?

You won't burn in hell for breaking a copyright law. You will burn in hell for being a terrible person.

>defending the right of megacorporations of erasing things out of existence so they can sell shittier things

I'm sure it has more to do with the fact that wojaks are spammed constantly.

Because they're all manlets

Half of these don't even work. I don't even care.

I agree user, people who copy digital files are worse than pedophiles and murderers. We should honestly have a death penalty for people who do that.

Burro!

If Nintendo just sold roms of their games that are 20 years or older and allowed for legal emulation literally none of this would be an issue.
People would buy the roms and Nintendo would continue making money. They would also be able to better see what their most popular older stuff is, which could help them get more in touch with what their consumer base wants.
>nooooo people would just pirate them and Nintendo would get nothing!!!
People already pirate, dipshit. A lot of people that play games aren't poorfags and happily shell out money for games on GOG or Steam when they could just pirate them. It's more convenient.
I pirate games when it suits me and I buy games on GOG and Steam as well.

You know what I pirate the most? Games I've already paid for but no longer own due to them breaking down or being lost. Nintendo can go fuck themselves, if I bought Mario Sunshine once physically I'll emulate it if I damn well please.

>What do you think about emulation?
I'm more nostalgic about emulation than physical consoles. I love emulation and people who shits about you need original hardware modded with rgb with expensive studio crt paying $500 to a random ebay seller for ONE game is completely RETARDED AND MUST SHUT THE FUCK UP AND KYS
