Another Rom Site Closed Down

[Lee79]

There are loads more sites out there i know 3 others and there is properly more. Then you have all the peer2peer, newsgroups and people emailing roms to friends. Nintendo have won a few battle's but they will not win the war.
Please do not PM me i will not answer so don't wast your time.

Why did you feel the need to post something most of us all ready knew? All of the video game companies will continue to fight piracy.

As for sending you a PM. Why again? Are you hinting at that you need someone to talk to? There's plenty of website including this one that can fill that need. You should check into that.

I don't think that's the point of what Nintendo are doing. They are not stupid, they know they cannot stop piracy. What they want to do is stop it growing more, they want to make it harder for people so it looks like they are actually trying to do something.

No i have plenty of people to talk to but after i posted that comment some people PM me asking for links. So i edited it to include that line so nobody else would.

Ohh... I bet the other big one I use is next.
Makes me sad, the other one has an amazing flaming board in their forum, I hope they don't go down too.

Ive seen all these places closing down and honestly I've never used any of the ones I've seen mentioned. I've been using the same 2 sites (won't mention) for years it seems for all sorts of console roms and these sites aren't even close to being closed...and if they do...I'm sure more will pop up....I used to run an emulation site back in the day =P
Before n64 emulation even Lawl. 4emu your place to get roms back in 1999 !!

Do you mean that they'll disappear off the face of the interwebz?

That'll never happen... As long as there are people with complete ROM collections... (Me..

their are thousands of people with complete rom collections but most of them are not interested in running silly websites that get shut down all the time cus they have more productive ways to share them and better things to do with their time lol

doubt websites will ever die, main problem at the moment is that roms are released on IRC... its not 1999, most people use torrents (which take forever to put on sites like demonoid)

system holds the community back, and force most new people onto websites
