The plot continues to thicken over this. I don't believe emulation should be considered illegal. The only illegal part is how you get the ROMs. Another friend mentioned to me the part that burns him is that Nintendo has been sitting on GameCube and hasn't done anything with it since the Wii Virtual Console!

DRM was a mistake, without it there would be no reason for a decryption key. The obvious solution is to make the user supply keys or BIOS from their own console, I think that's what yuzu does, for example.

Then of course, you run into the issue of having to install homebrew on the console to get those files...
