I'm not spending more than $10 on a DVD no matter how much we like the damn movie.

$20ish sure is a hell of a lot less than the $50-100 you said Ebay sellers were charging.

If a DVD goes out of print for a very long time, copies could start to become very rare. Drop Dead Fred is overall considered to be a pretty bad movie, I doubt they are still churning out new copies.

All those idiots are doing is giving the public a negative view of anyone that wants animals to be treated better

Well almost all animal right groups go to extreme measures, PETA's end goal is a future where all animals are left to roam free. That is right they don't even like people having pets like dogs and cats, and they would rather see those animals roam the land. Imagine if we let the millions of cows on the planet go from captivity.

While they go after the "abuse" of animals in situations like this since more people will side with that, these organizations are far more insane then you think.

In my experience the only people that seem to enjoy life are those that have an overarching goal or something they want to pursue. Much harder to make life "worth living" without that, though I guess in those cases if you have a family you care about that might also make it worthwhile.

Odds are they wouldn't say shit, I think if they knew a world ending event was coming they wouldn't say a damn thing they may try to stop it but telling everyone just creates a mass panic and makes the streets chaotic.

The only way it comes out is if some random guy with a telescope spots it and tells the world.

It is comical watching people complain that they cannot steal anymore and somehow Nintendo is the jerk out of all of this. Theft is just so rampant in our society that we don't even register it anymore. Most people in North America have stolen some form of media in one way or another yet they all complain about theft as a negative.

There are plenty of games Nintendo does not offer that you are forced to either buy the cart from some random dude where $0 of that money will benefit Nintendo. I would have less of a problem with Nintendo doing this if they had something like Itunes where every NES or SNES game within reason was offered and you could buy them for a reasonable price.

If I want to buy a song I can easily find it on Itunes in 99.9% of cases and it will cost me a small sum of money meanwhile with Nintendo they have like 5-10% of the library of the old consoles, and the games are pretty damn expensive in comparison.

I get the fact they don't want people profiting from their work or potentially spoiling their name, but their methods are outdated and they need to realize that emulation serves an important purpose through preservation.


Even assuming that Nintendo doesn't save copies of their games -- which seems unlikely -- it's not like they're just going to copy what's on an emulation site, so nothing is effectively being preserved for them.

Plenty of games original source code has been lost, acting like Nintendo has these games in triplicate in some vault is a joke. Especially since a good majority of games on NES or SNES are not made by Nintendo. Do you seriously believe that Nintendo keeps multiple saves of some random SNES game they didn't make? Rom sites help preserve games period, especially since in some cases games only exist in Roms because they were prototype games that were never released publicly and might only exist on a few carts as test carts.
