Aren't Roms legal if you owned the original?  I seriously don't know, but I thought that was the disclaimer usually put up.  THe only "pirating" I've ever done was to download some old NES and SNES games to play during slow times at work.  But I owned all the games back in the day.  I hope people don't think of me as a dirty, dirty pirate now.

But each download is counted toward a lose sale. Therefore, you're a dirty dirty pirate :)

But is it a lost sale when you download them to your computer, when they weren't available in any "legal" way on the computer?  I guess they could say the proper thing to do would be to buy a new NES or SNES, take it to the office, and then buy the games again.  But seeing as how they aren't sold new anymore, it definetly wouldn't be a lost sale (except to someone on ebay).
