What's stopping me from going to Vimm's Lair and downloading and emulating these roms myself?

>>713606892 (OP)
Uh bro that's like not cool? You need to support Nintendo's official release like this otherwise how else will they know to keep putting new games on there?

>>713606892 (OP)
Erm it's highly illegal, you will go to prison where they will rape you and make you join the Aryan brotherhood
Please rethink your course of action consider the profits of Nintendo shareholders and do the right thing and pay what they're rightfully owed

it just hits different when nintendo is paid for it fr fr

The fact that vimm took down all his Nintendo fucking shits

It's not the same:

Because if you actually wanted to play these games you would've already done so instead of being here pretending you're better than people who actually play the games

I dunno I wouldn't feel too bad stealing from the yakuza personally

Do whatever you want. Casuals and women are always gonna prefer their ease of access and comfort route without having to go the extra mile to emulate.

Nothing? But you really needed to announce that you're going to emulate games, didn't you? You totally are hurting Nintendo by emulating their 20 year old games, good for you buddy.

>>713606892 (OP)
Vimms lair doesnt have Nintendo stuff anymore because retarded Tiktok zoomers kept spam sharing it when their iphones got some emulators.

>>713607098
Where do I even get mario kart 64 now? I wanna play the PC port, also TTYD because the remake is censored

>>713606892 (OP)
Honestly the best thing about these releases is how basic and easy they are. Yeah you can just download the games, but sometimes you just get in the mood to play a quick round of Mario Tennis while taking a shit, and that's just fun

>>713606892 (OP)
You tell me, if you had any interested in playing them why didn't you?

>>713607410

I just entered the site and downloaded wind waker

>>713607484
It also got me to try games I wouldn't before, it actually reminds me a little of playing games on rental stores as a kid where I just checked the game box and decided to give it a shot

>>713607526
I guess Nintendo did a shit job then.

Vimm's Lair always packages their games in formats I can't use with anything I own.

>>713606892 (OP)
Because Nintendo is on a holy crusade against emufags, a lot of sites have taken down their Nintendo roms, or if they do have them, they've been distilled down into a shittier version that all the sites just copy each other

I remember like a year or two ago I wanted to download Super Metroid, and fucking every single website only had the PAL version with G*rman text in the game that you couldn't disable and it was the most annoying shit ever. I spent like over an hour looking for the NTSC version.

>>713606892 (OP)
who knows what they're gonna add

>>713607612
Yeah that's a really good point too. I know my ass was NOT gonna ever download Sin and Punishment but seeing it just there with a list of other games got me wanting to try it out.

>>713607684

this filenames work for me, dont know what is your problem

>>713607723
I've been using the same 2 websites for over 10 years with no issues, and in the rare case of it not having something I want I can literally just put the name on Google and get it from the first link, people love freaking out when some old ass website shuts down as if now emulation is dead when in reality nothing changed

>>713606892 (OP)
I don't honestly care, I have the NSO+ subscription and I also use unlicensed emulators on my phone.
The difference is that I don't need to constantly bring up that I pirate games unlike the modern pirate who is its own worst enemy.

how many months before this shit is worth it?

>>713608463

>>713608463
It's already worth it since they added without any extra charges, all I had to do was download it

>>713608463
Pikmin has a remaster release
Fire emblem por is announced already

Yeah, OP is a little behind the times
Nobody better spoonfeed OP either

We've had many, many netplay initiatives throughout the years, like Kaillera, project64k, heck even Zsnes had netplay with in-game chat back in the 90s.

>What's stopping me from going to Vimm's Lair
Nothing, but what's stopping me from just booting up my Switch 2 to play those games in my comfy bed? Seems far easier than getting out of my room, going to my desktop, turning on my work PC, installing and setting up programs, creating a memory file, hoping the set up was successful and the game doesn't crash or run poorly, and then going out of my way to make a thread on 4chan and pretend this is an own to the 'tendies".

For tendies, usually it's being born after the year 1997

>>713616856
Have you tried? Dolphin and Cemu are really well optimized, I have a terrible laptop that can't run the vast majority of games but I can emulate GC and some Wii U without any major issues, the only reason I don't is because I'll rather play GC on my hacked Wii and the only game still locked to the Wii U I wanted to play was Xenoblade X and that's not an issue anymore

>>713616856
Run dolphin in anything but Vulcan and you'll be fine

One of the stupidest posts I've read this month

>>713621714
That's only an "issue" for the autists recording their expensive monitors in slow motion to see if they can catch anything, it's not an issue for normal people who just want to play games

vulkan runs the fastest though.

>>713606892 (OP)
Unironically CRT filter is cool as fuck and it's crazy dolphin doesn't have this (that I know of), only reason why the switch 2 is superior in that regard. For everything else retro ar

thx for reminding me to back up the gamecube library, had a lot of extra space now that CoD refuses to run

>>713627645
you can do that on pc as well lol

>>713625404
switched it to vulkan and holy shit mgs twin snakes runs butterly smooth now

>>713606892 (OP)
They need to hurry up and put Chibi-Robo on there so I have an excuse to play through it again for the 3th time. Lovely game that everyone should try.

>>713633259
>I am.
lol

>>713608463
I feel like complaints like this detract from the main issue with the emulator.
There's no support for using another Switch/Switch 2 as a GBA via link cable and no support for having the second player online be the Memory Card B slot (important for many games) and that is criminal since the GameCube was a time where Nintendo was experimenting with that sort of thing. It makes playing F-Zero GX and Wind Waker if you have the ability to play with more people a lesser experience.
The games will come but I'm not sure if they'll ever patch in important functionality which brings this service up to par with playing the real thing.

>>713606892 (OP)
too old and tired to search for roms, emulators, dlls, drivers, etc etc.

>>713633583

you don't need to search for that.

What is vimms lair? Is it reportable for piracy?

>>713606892 (OP)
Nothing? It's 50 a year, everyone should be able to pay AT LEAST that much. Xbox and PS are like $200 a year or some shit.

>>713606892 (OP)
If they can successfully add rogue squadron 2 and 3 I will buy a switch 2. They can’t and won’t so I can play all of these games on Dolphin.

It really sucks those games are still borderline unplayable emulated>l

>>713607035
Has anyone ever been convicted for pirating games? Not redistributing them, but just downloading them? Moralfags make such a big deal about it, but I haven't heard of any cases where it actually happened.

>>713633583
all you need is dolphin and a rom
works out of the box

>>713633583
A boy who has never downloaded a rom in his entire life. Gen Z is cooked when they can’t even download 2 things (an emulator and a rom). Probably pulling up YouTube tutorials on using WinRAR

>its back up at vimms!!
its a honeypot isn't it?

>>713606892 (OP)
@FBI @CIA @Nintendo

YOU CAN'T JUST ENJOY THESE GAMES WHITOUT PAYING NINTENDADDIE MONEY!

>>713634183
I don't think so. Since the companies whose content you're pirating only have your IP address to go off of, all they can do is send a threatening letter to your ISP, who in turn will send you a warning. If you ignore their warning and continue pirating, they might cut you off and that's that.

>>713634183
Most of the time it’s ISPs reporting you, and only when you download crazy amounts of things all at once. Over decades I’ve downloaded plenty of songs, movies, shows, and games and never once even received a warning.

>>713634065
no, but using this site while underage is.

>>713633503
This, i was hopping that we could be able to play Four Swords Adventures with this shit, but i dont think it would ever happen

>>713634693
you can play it with emulator netplay

>>713635075
liar

I wonder what they will do for games they already remastered like Pikmin and Metroid Prime.

>>713634362
One of my IRL friends is like, 32, and I have to help him with tech shit frequently. One time I realized he had nothing to handle zipped files, so I went install winrar and he urged me not to. Said it was a virus because it turned all of his programs into books.
