  • It’s about companies that are against piracy for games they don’t sell anymore and don’t provide a way to play them. If they gave us a way to play them piracy wouldn’t be only option.

    But even new games can have similar problem because of the price. Main reason why I don’t have any current gen console is because I need to pay hundreds of $ for it plus 80$ per game (they cost that much in my country). That’s insane in my opinion. Two years ago I got second hand moded Wii with 200 games and paid it less than I would pay for just 1 AAA game. I can’t afford (or justify) spending so much money on games when emulation exists.

    This is main reason why I don’t own any current gen console. Even those consoles that I have are bought second hand because I don’t want to support them in any way.

    One thing I want to add is that all those companies are fighting against piracy of old games but don’t provide a way to play them on modern hardware. Mods are only way to play many old games (unless you want to pay hundreds od dollars for a second hand copy).

    Few days ago I was in meeting with two friend, we did something for school, and my screen was shared. At one point I had to type something in Vim so I opened a terminal. They were shocked, confused and said something like “we aren’t hackers” (and we are on IT department). More people should know about beauty of CLI.
