My suggestion, get as many private copies of emulators you can before they go after all the Github ones. Seems to be more and more take-downs are happening lately.
It really is too bad we dont have a federated github alternative. I know theres some projects in development, but I can see the emulator scene getting harder and harder to get into if popular repos go down. Decades of work, gone.
This is probably a good argument for torrents. Lame that something as gray as a simple emulator is catching flak but Nintendo can’t really play whack-a-mole with dozens or hundreds of random seeders
Your computer may very well get obsolete when it comes to software support.
A handheld or console meant to be an emulation console won’t have to move through time. It’ll be as it is after the day you’re done setting it up, like a hacked console.
Your PC has to keep up with web standards, codecs, online goings on but dedicated, offline devices do not. I may choose an SBC to do this to, and make a copy of the partition housing the emulators and boot drive for safe keeping.
I also have two different raspberrypi emulation images. Since those are literally everywhere, it’s a sure bet you’ll be able to find one to put the sd card into, even years from now.
Just don’t play Nintendo games lol. That’s what I do. I didn’t grow up with these ‘classics’ and I don’t feel like getting into these as an adult. 🤷♂️
Oh, that’s a good idea. Never thought of just tossing my entire childhood and lifetime hobby away because a stranger thinks keeping up with less than a terabyte of old games is hard.
Get rekt by AAA cock, sheepdick. Pay that subscription lmao. Hail corpo!
Fucking hilarious coming from someone giving a blowie to Bowser. Or other than scrappy Nintendo, every other game company is a AAA slop-serving corpo in your delusionland?
Sounds like someone couldn’t get past the retroarch GUI.
Ah elitism too. Figures. Are you going to say you Arch btw next? Which part of ‘I don’t give a shit about Nintendo classics’ was too difficult to get into your
brain? Or were you too busy getting pegged by Princess Peach?

Nah, fuck them too. They don’t get a pass. They’re in the sack with the rest of the greedy shits. Nintendo doesn’t even make up the bulk of most classic romsets size, Sony does.

Is arch another tree you can’t climb? Pegged by princess peach?
(if you must know, yeah, my desktop runs arch)
Quit projecting, bro. Insults don’t have to come from so deep in the heart. I don’t need to know you that well 🤣

We do have a federated GitHub alternative. Perhaps not too mature yet, but it does indeed exist. Forgejo
I just discovered that this is Codeberg - I’ve seen a lot of projects there and I had no idea that it was an instance of Forgejo

Emulators aren’t even grey, it’s settled law that they are legal.

Get a device or two, as well.

Lmao. Some of us aren’t vegetables.
Oh someone having different opinion makes them a vegetable? Choke on that nintendick while they shove an unlubed dildo up your ass.

You’re a special kind of moron, aren’t you?

Emulators should provide torrents for releases.
Stop making me sad sir!!!
