I can see Nintendo shutting down his own museum for piratery.

I was joking when in a previous post about the museum I said it better not run on any emulators..
So.. Why aren't they selling said emulators and roms? I ain't gonna travel half the world to play one in an overpriced museum.
But they own it. I thought even I could download a ROM if I have the actual game no?
No, at least in the US, you can only back up your own ROM if you own the game, not download someone else's backup. The real problem here is that Nintendo's (idiotic) stance is ALL emulation/backups are piracy and here they are being hypocrites about it.
ITT: people think emulators are only the ones you can download
In this comment: Someone who is not familiar with the history of Nintendo selling pirated versions of their own games and ripping off pirate emulators then passing them as their own.
or the history of nintendo falsely claiming that emulation itself was an illegal practice when trying to bully and scare people into submission...
