> Emulator LITERALLY created to stop you from buying that console>> B-BUT WE DON'T CONDONE PIRACY OK?!!?? BUY GAMES!!Bro you're literally stealing the entire fucking console which is more expensive than any of the fucking games you stupid bitch.
>>729618556Next time don't pirate tears of the kingdom before it comes out retard
>>729618556i have all these old consoles though. so i can say you are full of shit and I prefer PC because of noise
>>729618556Consoles are sold at a loss because the games are sold at a profitIm unironically saving them money
>little guy uses legal loophole against corposWhat are some games where the protagonist uses the villain's tactics against him?
To do it you need something with at least twice the power so it’s kinda stupid from a piracy perspective
>>729618556they say this shit to avoid any potential legal issues that could come from a user, i doubt most of the dev team doesn't pirate
>>729618556I have the console and I have the games. I just want to play them at a higher resolution and framerate.
>>729618556> Emulator LITERALLY created to stop you from buying that consoleGood. Slim PS3 is dogshit, and I can't imagine how the fat was even worse than this. Snoy should have been sued not for dropping GNU+Linux, but for releasing the PS3 at all.
>>729618556>press I understand and don't bother with it againCan't you just use the emulator without being an autist and cry about anything?
>>729618556Retard.
>>729618556SARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR YOU HAVE TO BUY DE CONSOLE SARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRBUY IT NOW SAR RIGHT NOW BLOODY BITCH
>>729619317Indian hate stopped being funny weeks ago. Are you underage or just so friendless and autistic this is the only way you have of "fitting in"?
>>729618776You say that but I've actually seen bootlicking take place where the devs get all high and mighty about ethical usage of their stuff.I think the people behind the Pretendo network are like that.
>>729618718This was specially true with the PS3.Not it is no longer like that anymore, now buying a PS3 does not give sony any money, but buying their games still do.
>>729618556funny how that works
HA!I'M PIRATING THE GAME AND NOT BUYING ITHOW DOES THAT MAKE YOU FEEL EMULATOR DEVS?!?! HUH?!?! BET YOU'RE CRYING LIKE A BABY RIGHT NOW!
>>729619569Just buy the original game in a way that still gives sony profit somehow.
>>729618556It's a legal statement. We all know the vast majority of emulation is used for piracy, but that doesn't mean shouting it from the rooftops is a good idea.>>729619378Not buying your "graded" retro "investment".
>>729618556Has anyone ever actually used a legal copy of a game for these emulators?
You know exactly why it's there, what is this thread actually about?
>>729619378Shut up, pajeet.
>>729618556ok, then sell it to me?
>>729618556Emulators are not inherently created for piracy.Yuza (I think that's what it was called?) was just a unique case where the devs themselves were encouraging piracy on their own discord.
>>729619639ok how/where?
>>729619937FUCKING TEKNOPARROT.
>>729619037This.Why does /v/ make such a big deal about these literal one time pop ups or disclaimers?
>>729618556hey RETARDwhy would an emulator endorse something illegal--openly? did it ever occur that perhaps it's a legal tactictotal retard genocide line 'em up
>>729619952>Emulators are not inherently created for piracy.Yes they are.
>>729620431t.Ninendo
>>729620407How the fuck is making the emulator to begin with not illegal??
>>729620431They aren't
>>729620609Because trying to make a replication of something without using any resources that came from the source is not illegal. You are effectively creating your own product that can simply do the same thing as what another can.
>>729620609because it's technically legal to reverse engineer software, and it's legal to dump roms from discs cartridges so there is a legal market for emulationyou've just never done it so you probably have no knowledge or association with it
>>729620609Why would it be?
>>729620431They are, but they can't actually out and say it because they don't want to get lawyers sicced on them.
>>729620693> I bust my ass of making a device to run game> scumbags don't wanna buy it> make a copy of it, give it for free>> "B-but guys please don't pirate games that's illegal, even though i literally stole the console the guy made"
>>729619378No? The more I read about them the more I realize Hitler was right about a lot of things.>90 days to get the fuck back to India with government funded tickets.>India doesn’t take them or they refuse to leave for any reason? They die.
>>729620850Just press i understand and move on doing whatever the fuck you wantJesus Christ how is this so hard for you people?
>>729620850nta but they didn't steal any console. they made an alternate method of running the software with original code.
>>729620006these days you'd purchase it on PSN exclusively through a real PS3
>>729618556You know why they have it there
>>729618718>Im unironically saving them moneyYou retards have gone from using the word "unironically" meaninglesslyb to flat out using it fucking wrong. Brilliant.
Emulators don't kill, pirates do
>>729620850Reverse engineering video game consoles is generally legal for achieving interoperability (making different programs work together) under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and for research, provided you legally own the product, don't violate copyright by copying code, and avoid breaching contracts (like EULAs) or anti-circumvention rules for distribution. Landmark cases like Sega v. Accolade established that analyzing hardware/software for compatibility (like clean-room emulation) is permissible, but you can't just copy proprietary code into your own product.
>>729621006I do what I want, fuck yourself.
>>729620546>>729620613They are you dumbasses. I'm a proud video gamer not Nintendo.>>729620797This. If you don't think 99% of people pirate literally everything they emulate you are mentally challenged. They might own the games on console but they aren't ripping that shit.
>>729618556If a console and its games are out of production who cares? The only person getting money from buy second hand is the individual (re)seller.
>>729621175well, i'm that 1% that rips my own games i rip cds, dump isos, even VHS
>>729618556Bro, they don't want to get yuzu'd
>>729621406Congratulations. A percentage of people like you also upload those things for people like me to save us the trouble.
>>729618556RPCS3 is shit though. Only good for a few games.
>>729618556I mean if I could have an emulator of a PS3 or 360 that gave me access to Sony or Microsoft services respectively and let me play the shit I bought on them or access their internet, etc etc, then whatever, I'd give them service AND not need to have to go pull my dusty, probably corrupted systems out and find their cables and shit.Oh wait, PC disc drives are a dying art even for blu-ray, Xbox 360 services are dead (not that Xenia emulation is worth a damn for anything yet anyway), and Sony keeps floating ending PS3 up to Vita permanently because piracy kicked their asses due to the massive scene around them, so that'd be pointless anyway.
>>729621537yeah, to me it's just participating in the communityseed your torrents faggot
>>729622005>seed your torrentsno way fag
>>729618556spazz its for legal protecting
>>729620406most people on 4chan have a bluetooth butt plug that tickles their prostate whenever some replies to their retarded time wasting bait thread
>>729622594I did not realize I wasn't posting on /v/ to my full potential, and I will correct this and purchase said device
>>729622381Why?
The only game i play on rpcs3 is demons souls which i dumped myself. PS3 in all seriousness has no other games worth playing.
>>729619407>This was specially true with the PS3.wasn't that shit like 800 dollars??? fucking HOW
>>729618556I'm sorry faggot what law says I have to buy your dogshit console?I don't. I can just buy the games.
>>729618748In Pong, the villain's tactics are to hit the pong ball into the player's side to score points. But the wily player can turn the tables by hitting the ball to the villain's side, thus gaining points for himself. Therefore Pong is a game where the player can use the villain's tactics against him.
>>729622647my hard drives will last longer
>>729622856hard drives?
>>729618556Whoever's in charge should update the site's rules to 'you need to be older than 20 to use this site' it seems...IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN LIKE THIS, YOU MORON! no emulator worth its salt says out loud its a tool for piracy, every single emulator site explicitely says 'we wont tell you where to get your roms, you need to provide them or buy the games'.
>>729623108Again, I think there's the "we're not going to help you pirate but use our stuff as you please" and the "our stuff will NOT be used for this purpose and anyone who does is a piece of shit, we RESPECT the people who made our games".
>>729620609My vague understanding is that right to repair laws and some other stuff have it so the disc or files are your rightful possession and they cannot force the disc or files to only go in the device it was intended for. If another device can read the disc/files then so be it.However a device that can run the disc/files may require algorithms or software that are legally protected patents or trademarks, so you might have steps like dumping your BIOS to help make sure the distributed emulator doesn't infringe
>>729622594nahnowdays most anons just get half a rupee per (you) and go up in their engagement statistics
>>729623265in no point at that statement were insulting the reader, every single emulator site says this, its common legal formalities... you are an idiot.
whats up with 4chan niggers and getting super uppity about shit like thisthere's a fag who basically doesn't allow talk of certain h-games because he's incredibly asshurt that the chingchong devs worked around age laws by putting in (everyone here is 18+ and all the animals are people in costumes) at the start for like 1 second and he's still ass ravaged by itjust skip it and press "I understand" nigger everyone knows it's bullshit to handwave legal issues
>>729623108>>729623265>>729623362just delete the roms within 24 hours and you'll be fine
>>729623445also, fucking that.
>>729623425Did you come to an emulator thread to cry about porn games and announce you're a pedo?
>>729618556But that console is no longer in the market.
>>729623508Sure, do you need a disclaimer for it?
