This is also why VC will still be up in the air for the foreseeable future. The doesn't make sense. Those topped the charts before any take-downs.

Good. Fuck you, Nintendo. This does nothing to stop piracy because it's still easy as fuck to find an alternate source, but what this could harm is preservation of harder-to-find things (i.e. almost nothing Nintendo has made). It's super unsafe compared to the 3DS though. --- </topic> <cite>GiftedACIII posted [p:906966878] in First, emu...
