The ips, The rom, and the eulaitor!

[Moppy]

If any of you use emulaition, you might have played "Super Mario World" for the snes!
Now, some of the expeareaeced emulation masters have used ips files for upgrading roms into rom hacks!
Now, when I use the Lunar ips patcher on super mario world, it says on the bottom, right after I pached the rom, I load it with Zsnes. When i do, there is some words that appear on the bottom of the screen, saying
                       "Super peachy world  type:normal Interleaved: no  Bank:no Checksum failed"   
 
                                Now I assume by the "bank: no", that this is not approved by the bank!
 Hehe, just kidding, But please, help out!

ROMS are Piracy.

B&

[Moppy]

Yes, but I can put it on the forums because...

Stuff that is ok:

• Emulation
  
• Abandonware - but you better be sure
  

[Mr.Patrick]

Yes, but I can put it on the forums because...

ROM's is still illegal, do you own the real game? Probably not. therefore it is piracy.

It's possible that he doesn't, but Badspot said he doesn't care. Are you blind? He quoted the post. Emulation IS allowed.

[Bisjac]

but i would still prefer to play my games as roms simply for convenience.

Yes, emulation is allowed. But ROM's is illegal, and I don't think Badspot said he doesn't care, and IF he did, then link plox?

Now, all you have to do is learn proper English.

Not illegal ROMs, also, you must have the rights to the ROM, and must rip it yourself, I believe, for it to be legal.

an I Download a Nintendo ROM from the Internet if I Already Own the Authentic Game?

There is a good deal of misinformation on the Internet regarding the backup/archival copy exception. It is not a "second copy" rule and is often mistakenly cited for the proposition that if you have one lawful copy of a copyrighted work, you are entitled to have a second copy of the copyrighted work even if that second copy is an infringing copy. The backup/archival copy exception is a very narrow limitation relating to a copy being made by the rightful owner of an authentic game to ensure he or she has one in the event of damage or destruction of the authentic. Therefore, whether you have an authentic game or not, or whether you have possession of a Nintendo ROM for a limited amount of time, i.e. 24 hours, it is illegal to download and play a Nintendo ROM from the Internet.

It's loving illegal to own and download ROM's. You may also be charged for putting it up on the internet. If you rip it yourself, you barely dodge a bullet.

How Does Nintendo Feel About the Emergence of Video Game Emulators?

The introduction of emulators created to play illegally copied Nintendo software represents the greatest threat to date to the intellectual property rights of video game developers. As is the case with any business or industry, when its products become available for free, the revenue stream supporting that industry is threatened. Such emulators have the potential to significantly damage a worldwide entertainment software industry which generates over $15 billion annually, and tens of thousands of jobs.

What Does Nintendo Think of the Argument that Emulators are Actually Good for Nintendo Because it Promotes the Nintendo Brand to PC Users and Leads to More Sales?

Distribution of an emulator developed to play illegally copied Nintendo software hurts Nintendo's goodwill, the millions of dollars invested in research & development and marketing by Nintendo and its licensees. Substantial damages are caused to Nintendo and its licensees. It is irrelevant whether or not someone profits from the distribution of an emulator. The emulator promotes the play of illegal ROMs , NOT authentic games. Thus, not only does it not lead to more sales, it has the opposite effect and purpose.

How Come Nintendo Does Not Take Steps Towards Legitimizing Nintendo Emulators?

Emulators developed to play illegally copied Nintendo software promote piracy. That's like asking why doesn't Nintendo legitimize piracy. It doesn't make any business sense. It's that simple and not open to debate.

It's also immoral.
