There's no vendor that could afford license fees to copy every game, from say, the NES, SNES, Atari, Commodore, etc. The rights are either untracable, unpurchasable, or exorbitantly priced.
It's also why Ready Player One book was so awesome, and why the movie was a pale joke... Even with Spielberg as the big name directing, there was absolutely no way to afford every right mentioned in the book. - Do you think that even the 1st quest, a D&D campaign, would be licensed reasonably by WoTC/Hasbro? And, well, it wasn't.
- piperswe 5y agoAccording to the website: "Analogue Pocket does not play copyrighted rom files, it plays legacy game cartridges via the cartridge slot. To play a game in Library you will need to insert the game cartridge to play it."
- noasaservice 5y agoI do not understand why you restated what I said, as if I was somehow wrong.
- piperswe 5y agoIt appears that you're saying the Analogue is piggybacking on piracy, but from what I can tell they don't want you pirating games on their consoles.
- spicybright 5y agoA Library of Alexandria with no books due to copyright issues inside it is hardly a library lol Why couldn't this startup focus on this aspect instead of making retropi interfaces?
