Nintendo continues its fight against gamers

[CodySP]

I wonder if it could have anything to do with the rumor that Nintendo will be porting lots of old games to the Nintendo Switch.

I sincerely hope it's this. Because as it stands, Emulators and ROM sites are quite literally a huge piece of pop culture history.

The files they provide, under ordinary circumstances, are archaic files that run on obsolete technology that are completely impossible to obtain or put to use without the use of extensive emulation software (Which is no easy feat to make) Which means that while we're certainly allowed to remember those games, we are completely robbed of playing them to revisit those memories. Despite the fact that emulating retro games does nothing to effect the modern day game market, as these games are no longer supported, referenced or cataloged unless kept in a read-only archive.

Obviously, my position here definitely marks me in the moral grey area when it comes to games and their distribution. Despite that and speaking only as a fact driven individual, I think it's ridiculous that these attacks have been so rampant and overzealous, especially if they still have no intention to support these games in the future. At least of they ported these old games, the actions would be justified.
