Parents And Emulation

[Diso]

Just recently, my dad was fiddling around with his Pocket PC like he always does. Next Thing I know, I hear bubble bobble music coming out. Now, he has a nes/gens/snes/gba/gb emulators for the pocket pc. He is frantic in downloading roms for the pocketpc even though he doesn't know which old games are good...

 

I find that a little funny though. My dad who is probably over 50 is getting excited over emulation

Wow. My parents are always like, "That's illegal, we better not get fined, let's go camping in the ocean!!!!!!!"

 

It get's really annoying.

The only ones that are protected are dbz and squaresoft games

Your dad sounds like me 30 years into the future. It doesn't matter how old you are, its just fun to play videogames.

You don't know how old your dad is?

[Gryph]

I don't know how old my dad is either...is that a bad thing?

 

Well by the time I get that old, I'll have enough dough to just buy the arcade machines and systems. I'll even donate to the emulation scene.

 

But my parents don't care about this kind of stuff unless I can get in trouble for it, which I can't.

My mom is pretty much the same as Mr. G's parents...Although she's started liking some game soundtracks, such as Final Fantasy VIII OST.

I am a parent and I have been into emulation since the early nes emu days. see the thing is I remember mowing lawns for that new nes game, lol *in his best grandpa voice* "you young whipper snappers and your confounded interweb emuromulus toys"

[Weirdy]

my parents aren't into emulation...though no matter what little illegal thing I do on this comp, my mom doesn't mind, no, seriously, she doesn't.

 

Though my dad doesn't live here though, he's not opposed to emulation either

[Smilee]

My parents don't care unless i get trouble for it, but now they don't even know i use emulators

My dad buys my modern bootleg games for me, i'm sure he's not fussed about emulation:lol:
