they've long killed any desire to ever give them a single cent in my lifetime again.

With how much effort they put into being most despicable company for game preservation, I'm wondering if their employees aren't constantly adraid of being assaulted in public.

Tbh, if I would be a millionaire, my hobbies would shift from playing videogames to getting every single one of them and digitalizing them into multiple drives, some of them EMP shielded

You don't need to be a millionaire to do that.

I’d need a house and enough storage room for this. Where I live a 320 square foot apartment costs about $500 - that’s 25% of a regular monthly income after tax, a regular house is around around $700.000

I mean. Every super Nintendo / Nintendo / n64 game ever is what, like, 16gb?

[-] dch82@lemmy.zip 5 points 6 months ago

Someone squashed every* game on the NDS into 256GB

*One locale only

[-] chrisgestapo@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

I heard from somewhere that you can get the whole collection down to below 120GB if you compress all variants of a game into solid archive.

[-] BudgetBandit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 months ago

Yes, but it‘s not about the digital media for me. I want that stuff physical.

If I was a millionaire I would shift my priorities to flooding Nintendo with frivolous lawsuits. Hit em with a bit of their own tactics.

This is so sad.... I hope a new site just like it pops up in its place. Vimms was so reliable, I'm really gonna miss it.

Long live to Yuzu !

Argh mate, if you don’t want to find freeloaded goodies, please don’t find the no-intro collection on archive.com

For avoiding purposes…
