You still need the physical copy though, so thats not the kind of emulation thats being discussed here.

That -is- emulation. The exact same emulation.

Emulation is a piece of software that emulates another hardware environment... That never changes regardless of the "media" being input into the emulator and is 100% legal.

And if we are speaking roms, not all roms are illegal either. - Homebrew roms where games are made from scratch in an emulator environment are 100% legal.

Making "backup" copies of your media is also legal in some jurisdictions, so is "format shifting" in other countries (I.E. Mine.)

Again, Emulators aren't illegal, never were, never will be... Which was the original claim.

We all know the guy who was claiming anyone with physical games is a hoarder was talking about illegal ROMs esp later listing off systems.
