[QUOTE="PoopaPapaPalps, post: 5269168, member: 18033"] Emulation is so proliferated at this point, you couldn't stop it if you tried. In fact, it's the only thing keeping many of these games' legacy alive. Many publishers and studios see video games as disposable so they do (and have done) the least amount of effort in preserving their titles. People who play them and those dedicated enough to work on emulations on their own time are preserving the history of the medium as much as "ripping it off." I'm all for emulation, even if big corpo' calls it piracy. It's better than being scammed through a pay-wall to play "legal" emulations which are just worse ports of fan preservation efforts that are already freely available---and better!
