Closeauthor=Dark Gaia link=topic=3971.msg79886#msg79886 date=1244772962The DS version is fantastic. You should try it out.
I would love to buy an actual copy of Chrono Trigger if I ever found one, as I believe in paying for something I like, but I can't get an old copy, so I download.

Unfortunately I doubt Masato Kato or Yasu Mitsuda or 90% of the people who made Chrono Trigger will benefit from your purchase. I... just want them to be alright...

Actually I was just thinking of how I used to be into the emulation "scene" in like 2003. It was pretty cool with DeJap still around and everything. There was a lot of enthusiasm for Snes/16bit games and it was a good time. :-* Emulation :-*

I like to use emulators if I can't play the game legally, either because it's too hard to find or it's prohibitively expensive. For example, I wouldn't have a problem downloading and playing Earthbound on an emulator, since it's not available for Virtual Console (and seems unlikely due to copyright issues..) and I really don't have the extra money to buy a new SNES and an Earthbound cartridge to play. My bigger dilemma is that I can't seem to find a good place to download any ROMs anymore, hehe.
As for games on the Virtual Console, I don't play them on emulators but purchase them for the Wii. This is because I feel the price is fair, and because I like playing games on a TV, not a computer monitor. I might consider emulating a game I've already purchased only if I want to specifically run it on the compy while doing something else on the Wii... like if I wanted to play RotTK (an old SNES version!) while playing Mario between turns. But that doesn't really feel likely for me anyways 8).
