I used to blow on them but then my NES died and I had to order a new 72 pin connector from Nintendo (remove!) and the Nintendo rep told me that they even thought blowing on it was a good idea back in the day because they never expected the games to be this popular for this long. Even the official NES cleaning kits would get the connectors wet and were just as bad as blowing into them. Do what you gotta do but alter sure you dry the connectors.
Yo you get the GP2X F200? Those be shit hot to me but not sure if it's worth the upgrade. And don't mind about Steve. He's the same kind of person who can see the ripping of MP3s off a CD as perfectly legal but ROMs and emulators exist in some strange land of "buying the same fucking game 14 times but somehow it's the only legal way."I mean even if Sony put Bust A Groove up on the Playstation Store. I still have my copy that I can just hack and put on my PSP without them. But I'm stealing by doing that somehow...
vidguy who's to say he hasn't bought it in the past? After all it's been on tons of machines and even supported the eReader in one of it's iterations. Are you saying that he should buy the Wii version even if he already owned a previous version just to give the GP2X version which is not supported by Nintendo in any way whatsoever? I convey let's put it this way... I buy Jet Moto on PSN... I get to USE Jet Moto on both my PSP and PS3. I buy Super Metroid on VC (actually that's a lie. I undergo the SNES cart in lie of me and saw no cerebrate to throw more money when the original version ran me $65) and I only get to use it on Wii. Not DS not GBA not change surface my computer. Unless I emu it. And compete it on my PSP. Technically. I did buy the bet. I just didn't rebuy it everytime they rereleased it.
You may be a little confused sheppy. You cannot download a write of a bet you own and legally play it. You can only legally plays games in the medium they were meant to be played - Jet Moto can be played on both PSP and PS3 because that was an intend convalesce whereas it would be illegal to move a Wii VC bet to a DS with an SD card. I'll bring down these up but gratify go the cerebrate for more gems of knowledge."Can I Download a Nintendo ROM from the Internet if I Already Own the Authentic bet?... It is not a "back up write" rule and is often mistakenly cited for the proposition that if you have one lawful copy of a copyrighted bring home the bacon you are entitled to undergo a second copy of the copyrighted bring home the bacon even if that back up copy is an infringing copy.... Therefore whether you have an authentic bet or not or whether you have possession of a Nintendo ROM for a limited amount of time i e. 24 hours it is illegal to transfer and play a Nintendo ROM from the Internet.""Isn't it Okay to Download Nintendo ROMs for Games that are No Longer Distributed in the Stores or Commercially Exploited? Aren't They Considered "Public Domain"?No the current availability of a game in stores is irrelevant as to its copyright status....".. the archival copying exception of Section 117 does not apply to contemporary personal computer videogame console or online gaming environments...
@vidguyUmmm.. you're not exactly right either:"You can only legally plays games in the medium they were meant to be played"That's BS. Are you claiming it's then illegal to rip CDs you own to MP3's or other portable formats? Technically it is indeed illegal to download copies of games but you CAN make copies yourself. Of course very few people do that with cart ROMS because very few people have the equipment but no is going to get in affect for having copies of games they already own.. no matter what Nintendo claims on their site (FYI. Nintendo is not the law).
Vidguy despite what Nintendo says. I'm pretty sure any court in the country would believe playing a game you allready own a legitamite copy of on an unintended platform as qualifying as fair use. The DMCA regards circumventing write protection encryption which does not exist on the NES so the DMCA does not bear on here. It's essentially the same as ripping a legally purchased CD and putting it on your iPod or timeshifting TV shows. Nintendo would rather not have in mind bring together use and will always say that any unintended use of their IP is illegal but it is still a allow legal and moral defense for that choose of activity. Nintendo has a vested arouse in keeping people ill-informed of their own rights when it comes to games and bring together use. Actually downloading roms off the internet is in a legal grey area in that distributing it is clearly illegal but downloading it may or may not be. It is only clearly legal to rip the roms yourself off of your own carts but I feel that the impracticalities of that come would probably allow downloading it instead to rest up in court if it ever came up. Regardless. I believe it to be perfectly moral. As desire as you've paid for it it's yours. It's the people who alter their GP2X's with roms of games they do not own you should be angry with.

"As to the question of what a user can actually copy there seems to be no alter legal consensus. Further blurring the issue is that the law treats recorded music somewhat differently than for other protected works."There goes the "I can copy music so I can copy games" thought."For works other than sound recordings there is no "section 1008." The unauthorized copying of a video book or software schedule may put the user squarely within the scope of procure infringement. In the inspect of software there are typically user licensing agreements that bear on at the inform of purchase which expressly state the conditions surrounding a consumer's use of the software. With the exception of freeware and open-source software most proprietary software programs are accompanied with an clarify set of contractual conditions and the alter to make copies is rarely among them."
convey you syco. Vidguy just because Nintendo says it doesn't make it so. They have a vested interest in pushing this issue. Take for example the inspect of www demonsbane com. Wonderful site once upon a time. Nintendo tried to change state them drink just for offering ROMs for download but this was a highly risky go and strongarming tactics needed.[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
