This is very educational, thank you. Just out of curiosity, what has Nintendo done with the 64dd? I thought they had forgotten about it
I have just pulled it up, I haven't even pressed play yet. 1 hour and 20 minutes? Fucking really? 40 minutes of ads in a 2 hour show. Absolute fucking insanity. I might be misremembering, but I swear it isn't this bad for SmackDown and NXT
They've never sued anyone for playing an emulated game. They have (most likely wrongly) threatened emulator developers over circumventing copyright and encryption. I don't like it anymore than anybody else, but are we actually mad at a company for preserving their games? You can hate them for what they are doing to others while still being ok with their own emulation
You are right. Sorry for being so snarky. The modding community for the SNES Classic mostly preferred Nintendo's own emulator, Canoe. I just assumed Nintendo would continue to use it
All we can do is speculate for now. They will never see another dime from me personally. I just don't see why we are persecuting them for emulation of all things. Be mad they are fucking over other emulator developers, but a company emulating their own games isn't anything new
Alright. Let me make sure I understand. Since Nintendo protects its IP, it isn't allowed to use its own IP?
Like, fuck Nintendo, but that doesn't even make sense
So you have access to the PC in the museum?
They really should have used their own PC OS
They have literally had their own emulators for so long. At least since the SNES Classic released. It is called Canoe
Are they? They aren't using Canoe and their own files?
I'm not saying they haven't used others work in the past, but they do have their own emulators and ROMs. They have for a long time. They are still terrible, but this just doesn't seem like a big deal to me
Edit: Also, whose lives have they ruined aside from those profiting off of distributing copyrighted material? Taking down a fan game doesn't sound life ruining
They are at least Nintendo's own in-house emulators. I don't recall the situation with the Classic systems ROMs, but Animal Crossing had the release group signatures if I'm not mistaken. They've been pulling this garbage for a long time
This really isn't that surprising. They used ROMs for the classic games in Animal Crossing. They even had evidence it was from a release group, and not Nintendo's own copies
I really don't understand why this is embarrassing. I don't know the exact setup they have going on. Is it like a kiosk where people can play classic games, or is it a monitor just displaying them? They have their own emulator, Canoe, that they used for the SNES Classic. I don't remember the name of the NES one
Weren't at least some of the games in the Super Mario Collection ROMs? I guess I can see why people would expect a direct port from the company that created it, or original hardware running the original games, but it isn't like Nintendo doesn't already have a track record for this sort of thing
Let's fucking go! I thought for sure this would have Denuvo. FighterZ did for a long time unless I am misremembering. I can't get my computer set back up fast enough
Good. Like I said, the guy finally got me to enjoy him on my screen after all these years. I'd hate for him to just screw it up as he is known to do
I thought I remembered that, I just wasn't sure enough to bring it up. I hope for everyone's sake he plays nice and doesn't implode again
I can't blame you for that. I really feel like he enjoys helping out with NXT though. Maybe he will stay on as a trainer or something when he is done in the ring
Like I said, I never cared for him before, so I don't have any stakes in this. It's just the feeling I get. I know putting faith in him is about as smart as putting faith in Jeff Hardy, but what can I say, I'm a glutton for punishment
I know WWE doesn't have a say. It was more about AEW not wanting a TNA star having their belt after that relationship soured and TNA are now in bed with AEW's biggest competition
Not a Punk fan? I hated him until this most recent run with WWE, and I can't help but enjoy him now
There's a chance something is going on behind the scenes. I don't know Josh's contract status, but I just can't see AEW and TNA playing nice with the NXT deal. I'm happy to be proven wrong, or corrected on anything I don't fully understand
