Do you no longer have any other system that plays GBA games? Are you aware that there are pretty good odds that GBA games will be downloadable a la VC? Did you know that GBA is quite possibly the easiest to emulate modern(ish) system on the pc? I've played through pretty much every GBA game this way. Bought a couple on that basis too.
I've noticed that.

But i think the reason the GBA is emulated so "easy" is because it is very close to the SNES. It just has a more powerful processor (32bit processor like a PS1, but the rest of the system is still 16bit like a SNES). And the SNES has been nearly perfectly emulated since before the GBA was even released pretty much.

Ironically for the psp its one of the hardest, yet it nails SNES/PS1/Genesis, and other systems more powerful than the GBA spot on :\

Uh, the games I like are sorta obscure. You know, games from Atlus and Treasure. >_>

Besides, I don't like breaking the law. I'm a sissy like that.

I see, Yes, Robopon and Demi kids were both great games.

If you own the games, it's perfectly legal to play them on your computer.
furthermore, if someone were to release a gba emulator that works with the sd card slot, that would be legal too.
And again, are you going to throw away all other devices you own that play gba games?

Perfectly legal? Nah. But I think Dave Attell put it best.

"I know it's illegal. But it's not that illegal!"

Thank you, legal loophole that allows you to make backups of games you already own. Probably made to prevent people from being sued for installing their games on new computers without erasing the old ones they gave to junior. You know, I see you disagree with me a lot, but you don't exactly put any effort into it.

I feel like the little bitch around here. You go look up your own goddamn evidence. Seriously, you are some kind of asshole. Go be one elsewhere, I'm trying to debunk illogical reasons to criticize new products.

To tell the truth, I was hoping you'd say that. That's actually exactly what I was talking about. It's not a 'back-up' if you play it. And no part of your standard end-user license agreement makes any allowance for downloading it online.

To be technically in the clear, one must have their own card reader (or borrow someone else's) and either never play that copy, or destroy the original. But it's not like anyone keeps the sales reciepts, either.

It's kind of the opposite of marijuana: illegal to DO, legal to posses.

THE MOAR YOU KNOW! :D

Again, not like I care. It's not "that" illegal.

Well, you give me compelling reasons, but my fear of the po-po killing me and/or arresting me intimidates me far more. >_>;

The worst you'll get is a threatening letter from your isp telling you to stop, but that is more for things like warez. (happened to my friend once)

There is no legal loophole. None.

I've actually READ the instructions on some of my games and a lot of them say in the back where the legal mumbojumbo that there is no need to make a backup of the game, and that it is illegal to do so.

Here is an example of one of said instruction manuals:

http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/gam...ustom_Robo.pdf

Scroll to the last page:

"Copying of any video game for any Nintendo system is illegal and is strictly prohibited by
domestic and international intellectual property laws. “Back-up” or “archival” copies are not
authorized and are not necessary to protect your software. Violators will be prosecuted."

Now im not sure about other consoles, but i know nintendo is definitely taking steps.

To be honest, the cult worship of Halo - a mediocre game at best - is a far greater sin.

I agree.
