Your Stance on Emulation?

[Chris2Balls [:B]]

It's a different experience to playing it on the actual hardware. It's great if you want to play games that were region locked or exclusive to a system you don't have/own. When I don't have all my games or games systems with me, I can use an emulator and roms and still play. I find it's a lot more flexible than the authentic experience, and it's that flexibility that's allowed emulation to become so popular, may it be for rom hacks, tool assisting, fan translations... it's really wonderful to see what can be done in the hands of passionate players.

There are some legal issues surrounding emulation, but as long as it stays in good faith, I'm defending emulation. Without it, we wouldn't have a resource like tVGR now that I think of it. :p
