Question I feel stupid to ask...

[Rei_Rocks]

Allright, I just downloaded an emulator for the N64, but I'm begining to wonder if it is legal. I thought it was but then I found this. Can someone tell me if this matters. I came across this old company facts. It may no longer apply though.

Yes, but is downloading emulators illegal? That is my only concern. I have no ROM's.

That's not always true. In many cases only if you dumped it from your own cartridge.
