I am a pirate - How to LEGALLY emulate games ft. Save The Hero / Sanni v3 + Raspberry Pi

Screw Nintendo

while this method is likely cheaper, there are a load of devices that can do this kind of stuff. one example is the epilogue gb operator, which does this with Gameboy, color, and advance games. The reason I brought this one up is because it's a lot more streamlined of an experience, being build into one app. it comes with a built in emulator, a usb port to plug it directly into the pc, and is fairly small, fitting easily into a pocket. overall an option to consider if you're going for this.

bruuuh why did you use uTorrent on the thumbnail? do you want people to download literal viruses?

currently playing the remaster on pc 4k 60 thanks to the emulators and piracy.

Soooooo how's the game with the remaster and all?

That’s the neat part you don’t

I love Anthony so much. He is legit cool!

nintendo can blow me

Is it a bad omen to the video when the game used in the intro (inaccessible) is being re-released this week??

I get needing to pirate stuff! There’s tv shows I want to see but they arnt on any streaming service so how do I see them!

i love anothony

I'm plugging my man at retro blasters. Does the same as the save the gamer, but affordable. Love mine!

Nintendo deserves to be pirates as kuch as they treat their customers n fanbase its crazy how they go after people for petty stuff

Thanks to all my fellow pirates for doing all the lords work! ARRR MATEYS!

Why this Anthony dude couldn't be a hot girl? That is all is missing lol but I'll allow it.

what a terrific voice. not you linus

I got the gb operator from epilogue. The only thing I wish it could do is dumpable game files. I have a bad copy of Pokémon trading cards and went to go buy another one to hopefully dump it into the bad one. Unfortunately you can’t do that at the moment

The thing Nintendo needs to understand is that you don't ban knives because some people use them as weapons. Millions use them to make a delicious meal. They just have to deal with piracy and let their actual paying fans use these tools to play the games they love and don't mind buying legally if Nintendo still provided them.

I lived my whole life on Pirate games

The original battery on my 1989 Dragon Warrior cartridge still works.

As long as you don't seed, no one will be able to check who dumped.

Anybody know what model that Sony tv was?

wow awesome stuff in this vid and you certainly know about its arounds. Kudos.

I mean... legal still debatable, but emulation isn't piracy. By definition piracy is the selling or buying of stolen goods. Biggest flaw with any emulation, and where legal troubles come into play are... well are copyright issues.

Would love to get a steam deck to play all my hand held games. But if i have to keep the physical games then i might as well keep the consoles.

Raise your hand if you’ve ever been contacted by the authorities for playing a video game? They’re too busy being chomos and importing drugs to care about you playing video games. Play the games and have fun. Just don’t try to make massive amounts of money playing old games and you should be 100% fine.

honestly im here for pirate linus

This isn't Piracy at all, though.
Piracy is the download and distribution of games you didn't buy. The keyword there is and*. You *could argue this is theft, but unless you distribute it yourself it isn't legally piracy.

In 1980s Japan, Nintendo tried to have game rentals legally deemed theft, and was initially successful. There were rental options, but they were all considered "black market". This is also why the US & Pal versions of licensed Nintendo games are noticeably more difficult. They wanted buying your own copy of a game to be the only practical way you'd actually beat the game. I mean, imagine renting Ninja Gaiden II often enough, to get good enough at it, that you could maybe beat it. Can't imagine it without context? Well, lets just say you'd have paid enough in rental fees to have bought the game, several times over. Nintendo has always seemed to feel that the law should be...whatever gives them complete control and makes them more money.

Think about this if you loose the original games your are screwed that is soo messed up.

It's literally cheaper to do it illegally since it's 100% free it just cost you your morality. But still cheaper than money 😂😂

If they are "read only", then how did they get the data in there to begin with?

I don't know if this actually is legal. Looking at some recent videos on piracy made by lawyers (Moon channel, legal eagle, etc) seems to indicate it actually isn't since it's still usage of third party technology to attempt to circumvent encryption/restrictions set by the copyright holder.

I personally think it's bogus, sure, but the law doesn't care about an individuals opinion, so caution advised.

(I am personally a proponent of limiting the length of copyright, trademarks and patents to a reasonable time, meaning after for example protection drops after 10 years on the old work, adding it to public domain)

I didn't know that Maui from Moana is white in person...

I love this videos from @emily-young, it helps me to dump my videogames! thanks

that boxed sealed copy of super mario rpg is such a flex

I never understood why game companies dont have an online store where you can buy games from them through their website. The used market is the only option and they dont make anything on the used market. Makes no sense to me. Especially disk based games would be so easy to produce.

Nintendo won’t sue you if you emulate older consoles

This is a completely useless video, don't bother and download any roms that you want from the internet, if game companies don't want to preserve their legacy, we do it instead

No, you can legally do that. There are multiple laws that allow you to download digital copies of what you own instead of ripping the physical media.

The reason i pirate is that i wont buy/support playstation or sony who tend to shut down their shops fast. Steam all the way!

Should have waited for the reamke

I seriously don't blame ANYONE for pirating and emulating the ridiculously high priced old school games. When you have scum buckets in ebay selling them for hundreds to thousands of dollars.

AYE!!!! MPRE ROM!!!!

to my knowledge, nintendo still considers rom dumping piracy. you are "duplicating" your copy, meaning you now have two instead of the one you purchased. not that they could have made money from you in the first place, because they dont sell the damn game anymore.

Linus bout to pirate the one piece
