it was sarcasm,
however,
yes you and every other person can download classic games on thier currant console,
as for those who like to emulate,
theres torrent sites that provide hundereds of roms at once,
in one easy download, instead of looking for harvest moon for a few hours till you find a decent rom site.
theres usb copier's, which simplify the whole cart copying process so those who are new to it,
don't have to ask for help in these forums.
add to this the rise of social networking and the like,
forums should be dead... right?
especially the ones dedicated to the dying art of emulation?
well i hope not,
because:
say for example you bought it when it came out way back when,
it was what £30? (not sure...rough guess)
then you bought it on the gameboy advance,(cus u wanted it everywhere you went)
another £15
you've bought the ipad version, because the GBA just aint cool,(no idea of price)
then gone and paid £30 for the all new DS pretty version
why should have buy the wii version?
why not just emulate it on your pc??
you've spent near enough £85 on the game...
then in a few years time your probably going to buy another copy of the same game, on a newer console, why? because your wii is going to end up in the attic with all the other old consoles.
social networking sites are just full of unfiltered crap,
"i have a bad tummy" yadda yadda,
its just a torrent of uncontrolled crap,
where at least here you have moderaters and the like,
who ban the constant "i'm in love with", my tummy hurts", "work was shit", "peters pis are the best" status posts which dominate status feeds.
but hey who cares 'cus you can play super mario bros on ya wii
[edit] sorry i don't mean to seem like i'm kicking off at you,
im not promoting pirecy,
i don't buy pre-owned games due to the lack of money being given to the devoloper,
i just hate the way they are trying to make you pay for the same thing over and over
