Also, ROMs are legal if you own the game, the whole Nintendo legal page is messed up.
"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. "
This is total bullshit they created because rom sites run with that excuse (download only if you own the ROM), and it is very legal. If I own the ROM, I own the game, not just the cartridge or CD or whatever, I don't buy the container, I buy the game. If it's damaged, I'm entitled to use aq backup I have made, or even download one, because I have the right to it.
They are pulling all these crap to us, stop us from doing a backup of our purchased game just to find a way to shut down these ROM sites. They damage their customers to save themselves. F****** hypocrites.
Go download ROMs and don't give a damn about them.
