1. u can't use it without rom's or ripping games

1. I learn something new every day. In the US it is legal to make back-ups of software. So if you own a game, you can legally rip it to your computer. Then there is nothing stopping you from using an emulator. 

2. I got a little bored and looked up the Connectix lawsuit. They were being sued for selling PS emulators, and they were sued by Sony to stop it. Sony lost, and they were free to continue selling their emulators.

there is nothing stopping you from anything.you can do anything,we are here trying to know whether it is piracy or not

 

the reason the US backing up is legal is cause it normally one's right to back up

 

but what it leads to is piracy

 

that way all the recent PS3 backing up should have also been normal but it wasn't it was leading up to piracy
