Then I see nothing wrong about collectors being selfish obsessive reclusive geeks who need to get a life instead of wasting it away in their closet playing gameboy.

You say this like downloading roms is a mere "preference" but in reality pirating games is a purposefully deviant lifestyle choice that is an affront to all good $2000 game-buying butter fatties everwhere and should be stopped at all costs.
VOTE "NO" ON PROPOSITION ROMS

Whatever. I think it depends on the games you're downloading.
Not all companies really care anyway.

Can you guys just shut up and give up already? Geesh, and I agree with what Climax said earlier, anyway.
I agree that in some sense everyone was somehow responsible for what happened, and destroying it WAS immature.
Really, he should have known better, but maybe not. So seriously, instead of making each other look bad and throwing baby comments around, can you just get over it and look elsewhere? Damnit, the thing was probably a hoax anyway.

Dude, that 3rd urn from the right on the shelf on the left is an actual butter urn. It takes 21 pounds of fresh, wholesome cow?s milk to make each pound of butter.
Paul, if you get that cart glued back together, can you post some screenshots of the ending? I can let you borrow my Game Action Replay so you can save your progress as you go through. Hopefully the game will let you save 5 different slots (some games only let you save 1, some 3) and you can save it before some of the more memorable moments of the game.
I still want to know why the Ape went from Simian to the full-of-rage version of Danny Glover.

I sense sarcasm.
But...To some extent, that is true, but as a guy who's actively involved in game publishing/marketing, it's not always the worst thing when an obsolete title is 'pirated' or copied. Only a small portion of the games you will see today will ever be considered for a re-release, and that being the active franchises or popular titles, like Final Fantasy or Sonic the Hedgehog. But why haven't gems like SNATCHER even been considered for a re-release? And why haven't titles like Castlevania: Symphony of the Night been re-released considering their demand and popularity? Some companies have complicated marketing tactics or standards.
Many games like the PC98 titles and other obscure platforms or consoles are emulated without any concern for profit loss, but so are many consoles. A considerable ammount of NES publishers/developers are out of buisiness or have been bought out and so many titles have been overlooked or are no longer available (the source code could be lost or something of the like) so that hinders titles from being re-released. Although getting back of some of the titles I mentioned, some games like SNATCHER are probably overlooked because they failed the first time and lack an efficient following to allow the franchise to thrive in western markets where it's popularity is considerably less compared to it's overseas counterparts.
Let's take FARIA, for example. It's a great game, but was overlooked, yet, it has never and I doubt it will ever get a re-release, so the only option is to download.
Also, someone mentioned earlier that alot of games that are revamped sell better, and that is true, but not always. Alot of games have been re-released for GBA and nobody cared (like Aero the Acrobat, etc.)

Everyone keeps saying it was fake but whatever, if that's your coping mechanism more power to you. I'm going to celebrate Halloween now by absorbing the souls of wandering children if you'll excuse me.

You and me both. All I know is the scammer got pissed and supposedly destroyed his proto and people are whining about banning people who download roms and like butter.
