Otherwise, well, google is your friend (I have said too much already!!!). Of course discussing "the other way" is against the rules here.īottom point is that if you want to abide by the law 100% you are required to own the console you want to emulate. Of course many people using emulators (see: almost everyone) do it "the other way".
So this gets them legally covered (and apparently they can publish on steam) with no issue. Then, in order to play a game you must have a legal copy of the game and either load it up to your cd tray or rip the the cd in iso format and then load it up to your PC. So in order to make this work - legally - you are required to own the console yourself, extract the BIOS from it, and then load it up to the appropriate path of the emulator's installation. It is advertised as a way for someone to play their games on PC as long as they already own the console and the game.
The answer is somewhat simple: they are skirting the lines of the law by actually emulating how a console works but not including the image of the BIOS of said console. Is there not some kind of intellectual property that would get the developers sued over?
Why is Retroarch legal? It is emulating consoles. You have to understand something that you might have already been wondering yourself. But I have no clue how to use it or what it does.
