Thank you for providing the sober explanation of what really happened here, I knew there had to be more to it, but didn’t care enough to dig in.

- bakugo 3y agoThere isn't more to it, that explanation is wrong. See my other comments.
- corytheboyd 3y agoSo did they run a discord server where people shared ROMs or not? That alone is enough of a woopsie.
- fxtentacle 3y agoThey did, but indirectly by tolerating it, and some files are even still online: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39596261 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39596261
- brookst 3y agoI mean if you’re in the emulator grey area, you can position yourself as righteously enabling people who have purchased the games, or you can position yourself as a way to play the games without paying. Anything less than a zero tolerance policy for ROM trading on the corporate discord server is pretty much a declaration of the latter.
