Variations in copyright laws by country, not necessarily related to a country's constitution. If all else fails, the UN is there. I'm not well versed in copyright laws, but a country's constitution probably has better stuff to worry about.

Japan's copyright laws will apply as the programs were manufactured in Japan by companies based in Japan, I'm guessing.
Let me elaborate: All countries that cooperate with the UN have a copyright CODE. This is not a variation of the laws in question, but rather a re-telling if you will to make it seem the same and/or different. These laws are international laws, thus falling into the hands of both the UN and INTERPOL in question. The copyright code of the united states and japan are almost the same, as is the fact that we wrote their basic legal system with help of General MacArthur. With this as a hold, majority of the differences in the codes is mainly location, location, location. If you will, majority of them are the same with a few exceptions.

Also, I was pointing out how convenient the collapse of GW was to the decline of RM2k, thus making the legality very blurred as those whom did perform the translations, as they disappeared. Other than me noting how I need to sleep and creating a contrast to me and the person I was chatting with.

That's the real punch line, isn't it? It seems that all the real action was happening when Gamingw was going strong, and the internet had hundreds of sites devoted to rm2k and their games. RMN here is basically a ghost of everything this community lived through and is slowly rebuilding its self. Well, I've got to get some Zs in for the night, so it has been nice talking to you Dark Gaia. Its nice to know that I am not the only person whom remembers this stuff. Well, good night.

Well, it seems like both of them are things that disappeared with the advent of gamingw's fall.

Russia has plenty of loop holes in its almost insane legal system. But, yeah. We can agree on that. Oh, and the copyright code changes per country, but not the actual laws. ASCII, being a Japanese company has Rm2k covered by japan, meaning the UN as a whole backs up their claims, but when it comes to Russia... Well, let's just say that they write solutions to other people's rules. So Don Miguel was sued? All I remember is that he made a quick exit after RM2k was released, like only about 6 or 7 months after release. Something like that anyways.

Ah, but this is trumped by one little thing called the international copyrights act of 1891. With the UN and 93% of the world's countries enforcing it, legality is not up for grabs or misinterpretation. The remaining 7% is the percent of countries that are either illiterate or too insignificant for an UN embassy to be set up.

Edit: Note that this is an estimate coming from the UN's bi-annual release of economic statistics.

I'm back. Yay?

Not even me?

Postality Knights ver was released about one month after Enterbrain announced their translation, thus was technically an obvious breach of the law. Then again, Enterbrain's translation was released a year after the announcement, so postality was the only one up. I remember how the scripts were split, as some would only work on the enterbrain release and others on the postality version.

Muisc homework help D:

Kef, your post is so irrelevant, it just destroyed Erist Van Quinstine's Twenty-seventh law of Relevancy, which means you need to start posting something relevant to the topic at hand and stop ruining my perfect evening of jazz with your... your... Autistic art.

Goals for 2010

Release my TV rmvx visual novel and laugh at all whom call it crap. Also, update said TV nonstop.

Well at least Don's version was released in a time where their were no real marketing in the english speaking community. On the other hand, stuff like Postality Knights XP ver. was clearly an unwarranted outing made against the commercially released version. Well, nice to know you and I share the same roots at least.
