Probably just avoiding major lawsuits by other companies.

And that's why:
I don't believe in emulation

>i choose my beliefs based on what companies tell me is ok or not

Then what are emulators used for instead?

It doesn't ship with an emulator and also has other functionalities, like being able to being a literal fronted to game engines like openlara or that one popular pixel platformer.

They aren't, but it kind of becomes inevitable that some people start asking for and sharing stuff that is considered illegal. You can recommend people to use your own copy of the game like many forums, but everyone knows only a small percentage do it.

A lot of the games they sell can be played for free on emulators, so thats why they consider them piracy

These games can also be played for free on the original console. What gives?

A lot of games they sell run on an emulator as well, like dosbox.
So what gives?

They are though retard.

>literally has emulator in the description
>not an emulator
Only if they include BIOS and ROMs/ISOs. A clean room implementation of a console that hasn't been sold in a retail environment for decades is perfectly legal.

What if i'm using an emulator to develop a game for the platform and basically only running my own code.

I'm pirating my own game?

>>not an emulator
Yep, it's a frontend, it's like calling your monitor a piracy machine.

oh shit no one tell sega they're breaking steam content rules

wow gee I wonder why Valve has a blanket statement on emulating to protect their ass from copyright

obviously people don't just use emulators to play copyrighted games but the vast majority do

>Do not post porn, inappropriate content or anything else NSFW
Oh they must have forgotten about that one, judging from half the titles the VR section has. Let alone all the shit clicker and image slide puzzle shovelware on the regular store.

have you seen the state of the emulation community recently? shits like a gag reel of mental illness and hipster-welfare begging

everybody knows that most people use emulators for piracy and Valve just don't want to flood their forums with "how to download x for my PS2 emulator?" and "any good websites where I can download zelda roms"?

That looks like shit mate.

It got a bit better after i actually did a decent level etc..

>Steam launcherfags will defend this

Doot doot

wow man, thats impresive considering you are programming in assembly. What's your experience on int? I'd like to try it soon.

Unless you're doing x86, it's quite fun.
But i don't recommend MSX/MSX2 if you have big plans like scrolling screens etc because the video chip is pretty iffy and don't do basic things like two screen tiles or sprite flipping.

I would say the best place to begin is literally here:
skilldrick.github.io/easy6502/
After you learn 6502 well, you can do NESDEV or C64 or Apple etc..

How soon till Valve bans Valve from Steam for profiting off of console emulators?

It's just fucking mega man.

Pretty much.

report bubsy then for just being roms with a mednafen frontend

I think that statement was made to disclaim people emulating PS4/Switch games, not abandonware.
