Mr.Rubinshtein

Mr.Rubinshtein
also what about Abandonware its like the biggest website of rom distribution and as the law states if the website has the license for uploading rom files then its fully legal
Mr.Rubinshtein
these laws man
Mr.Rubinshtein
another interesting fact is that the legal issues over old roms work only in case if the studio that developed them is still around
Mr.Rubinshtein
like nintendo for example
Mr.Rubinshtein
and a studio lets say Coktel Vision which developed asterix games stopped its existing in 2005
