"Emulators are not illegal. Playing ROMs with them emulators however are. That's the issue at hand. Nintendo saw a Nokia employee in an official Nokia sponsored Youtube video playing a Nintendo game on the emulator."

no playing unpurchased roms are illegal , playing copies of your roms are not illegal.


emulatotors are fine, and in terms of the law nothing wrong with what nokia did by realising the vid(surely at the mo).. they may have been in a stronger position if they put a warning underneath saying "playing pirated roms is illeagal"
