emulators are far from piracy. it has been discussed several times.

and at the end of the day... you are not going to hurt amstrad, commodore, snes, n64, gameboy and all the other systems there are emulators for.

have you ever seen an emulator for a current generation system ?

Yeah, I have, for the Wii: Dolphin. You can can play some of the games with it. Naruto Shippuuden Gekitou Ninja Taisen almost worked full speed on my computer and I have an old video card, but you get a boost if you use newer. Also some other games are working pretty good already.

Not to mention VisualBoyAdvance when the GBA was still a popular handheld (2003) and NO$GBA for DS.

That said, I agree that emulators are not created for the purpose of piracy and probably won't be used that much as pirate tools. Pirates use modchips or softmods.

i've seen a few people defend emulators in this topic, don't kid yourselves and you're not fooling anyone - if you're using snes9x etc to emulate snes games chances are you're using it to emulate the good ones - i.e. ones you can get on nintendo's virtual console which is something you have to pay for. have we derailed the topic enough yet?

Too bad for Marcan WiiBrew wasn't actually hosting the file download.

Got the following link off the Google cache for the cIOS USB2 page on Wiibrew:

http://www.mediafire.com/file/dtzctgkiznn/cios_usb2.rar

Damn Google supporting Wii Warez! Don't be evil.

So I guess all the people developing HomeBrew and making use of the 2.0 should also be shunned because there using something supported by someone who helped iron out bugs in an ISO loader? (to what degree no one can be sure about) This is stupid, think Marcan needs to come off his soap box.

wow... he deleted USB2 cIOS from WiiBrew? OH NOEZ!! it was never uploaded to any other site because we all thought it would be there forever!

marcan has defeted us! we must all bow to his supreme intellectual prowess! he is a god, and we are but just mortal men (and the occasional woman)

what ever shall we do now that it is gone from the internet forever??

oh, wait... http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&amp...Search&aq=f

EDIT

I find it funny that bushing and marcan are so against piracy, yet they allow emulators to run free on WiiBrew... I guess one form of piracy isn't as bad as another....

Ok, so I'll just go get an NES emulator for my Wii, and put Super Mario Bros.nes on it... I'm not hurting anyone, right?

Well, since the copyright for Super Mario Bros is still in effect, I'm violaing copyright laws. And since it's also on the VC for purchase, I'm also stealing from Nintendo's profits.

You can't say one form of piracy is good and one form is bad. Piracy is piracy. You didn't buy it, so it's pirated. period!

Marcan already said what he thought about emulators. They don't contribute to existing piracy. If you're not using the Wii NES emulator to pirate then you can use the one for the PSP, PC, DS, ... and tons of other platforms. While programs like WAD Manager create VC/WW piracy that had never existed before.

>VC Piracy
>Never existed before
Nope, not at all.
And Wii games can be played on a PC.

exactly... he's fine with emulation piracy but when it's something current, he's against it...

its a double standard. Just because I can play emulators on my DS/PSP/PC/XBOX means it's ok to pirate on the Wii... so if I write an app for the PS3, or 360 to run VC WADs, then he won't have a problem with WADManager?

Oh Marcan said that? Oh that changes everything.... Piracy is piracy. If I guy owns multiple houses and you go to once which is unoccupied. You can't say its okay because he isn't using it anymore. Its not yours so you can't use it. YOu not hurting the market but its still illegal. But in most cases since the virtual console you are hurting the market. Using the emulator on another system doesn't change that.
