>What is a Nintendo Video Game Emulator?A Nintendo emulator is a software program that is designed to allow game play on a platform that it was not created for. A Nintendo emulator allows for Nintendo console based or arcade games to be played on unauthorized hardware. The video games are obtained by downloading illegally copied software, i.e. Nintendo ROMs, from Internet distributors. Nintendo ROMs then work with the Nintendo emulator to enable game play on unauthorized hardware such as a personal computer, a modified console, etc.
>Can I Download a Nintendo ROM from the Internet if I Already Own the Authentic Game?There is a good deal of misinformation on the Internet regarding the backup/archival copy exception. It is not a "second copy" rule and is often mistakenly cited for the proposition that if you have one lawful copy of a copyrighted work, you are entitled to have a second copy of the copyrighted work even if that second copy is an infringing copy. 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.
Ie; you're not allowed to download copies of games on the internet
which is precisely why they can't and aren't legally allowed to close down the big emulators like desmume etc because their (the emulators') excuse is that they're only made to allow someone to play a copy of a rom that he owns, one that he has not illegally downloaded from the internet
why would you even post such a link without reading it?
>Technically yes, they can. Because they have the rights on the product and they can decide what you can do or not on it.no they don't
