Cool! There’s also a version of Desmume for Windows that does this, but it is quite demanding. My cell phone is better than my PC so I look forward to trying this out!

It’s actually impossible to read your story with all those quotes
Rude
I spent about 20 minutes answering your question about copyright law with knowledge that’s cost me about $30,000. Least you could’ve done was star it ya jerk
Good magic, but termination and breech are not synonymous
Maybe. Minus any costs incurred. The company definitely shouldn’t be keeping any money they haven’t earned.
They are also not entitled to keep any money that they haven’t earned. And LoL is F2P.
What you are suggesting would encourage being an asshole when you’re done with a game just to get a refund.
I’ve covered the issue extensively in my post below, but suffice it to say that simply being linked to copyrighted assets is not sufficient to constitute infringement, nor is developing a mod in a proprietary format developed by the game-maker. As long as all of the files and assets you are distributing are original,…
I replied to the wrong comment, I meant this one
Valve deserves a cut, Bethesda does not. I agree Valve deserves to be compensated for the value they provide. Bethesda on the other hand has already been fully compensated for their product by all parties and has no justification to collect money without adding any value. That Valve enables (and presumably helped cook…
Well, you own a license. It’s not that big of a deal. Creators can’t actually “sell” you their work, the law doesn’t even recognize that. It’s not possible for multiple parties to truly “own” a copyrighted work, but a creator can grant you a non-rescindable, perpetual license to copy, modify, distribute, and whatever…
I have seen people murdered for being irreverent. That doesn’t make it legal.
Sure, Caveat Emptor is relevant. So are unconscionable contracts and contract of adhesion (a contract for which you can’t negotiate), and a contract term that results in a windfall (a monetary advantage for which there was no effort expended) for one party at the expense of damage to another could be held as…
I was worried about the incentives for modders to develop garbage that they can sell for a couple bucks and cash out instead of investing in quality products, but yours is a likely consequence as well.
Perfect
I’m sorry but which movies and music companies are selling products and collecting full rate and then remotely disabling the product? It is not the same situation by any stretch. The distinction between licensing and ownership has little relevance toward the instant point. Companies are free to sell a license for $30,…
Their product doesn’t work after it is disabled. Companies don’t deserve $30 if the customer doesn’t have the product.
I mean, when all is said and done, this “community policy” is effectively nothing but a backalley deal whereby asshole players can abuse the community as much as they want as long as they are willing to pay the developer more. How does that improve the community? It just makes them more money as far as I can tell, and…
For one, we could use an effective method for kicking out individuals. Without a way to truly ban someone, all they are given is a $30 fine collected by the developer since they can easily repurchase the game and return to the community. Since it is effectively a fine in its current implementation, it should be going…
