now that a really decent emulator for the snes has been made i'll have to d/l all my fav snes games (which is like fifty)

oh well better get started
 
"Argh! Someone gave me something for free and now I just have to use it! Woe is me!"
 
Or perhaps "Argh! Someone gave me something for free and now I just have to illegally download some roms! Woe is me!"
 
Since they are his favourite games, he knows about the games. He might own them on his real snes. That´s a possibility.
 
I know; downloading the roms is still illegal. :p

I was only clarifying what kerb said, I don't really care...after all a great deal of gp32 users use roms to some extent...
 
In theory, you are still only buying the license to use the software, so in theory, as long as you dont use the original and the ROM at the same time, I believe its legal (though don't quote me)....
 
I depends on the country you live on.
If backup copies aren't allowed, you're not allowed to download a rom, even if you own the original card and you don't use them at one time.
If backup copies are allowed then you are allowed to have a backup - however, in most countries you are not allowed to download it but have to copy it for yourself. (I just don't know how anyone will notice, since you could have borrowed a rom reader from a friend ;))

In some countries the copyright is completely ignored. These are the countries where all the warez server keep alive for a loooong time...
