Are they? They aren't using Canoe and their own files?

[–] Nima@leminal.space -2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

files they've downloaded off the internet. its much easier for them and they only need to do a quick frontend to make it look official.

ezpz.

So you have access to the PC in the museum?

[–] Nima@leminal.space 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

in the past they have. i should have specified. i have no idea what they're doing in their museums. but considering their history, I wouldn't discount it.

You are right. Sorry for being so snarky. The modding community for the SNES Classic mostly preferred Nintendo's own emulator, Canoe. I just assumed Nintendo would continue to use it

All we can do is speculate for now. They will never see another dime from me personally. I just don't see why we are persecuting them for emulation of all things. Be mad they are fucking over other emulator developers, but a company emulating their own games isn't anything new
