Vimms lair is starting to remove many roms that are being requested to be removed by Nintendo etc. soon many original roms, hacks, and translations will be lost forever. Can any of you help make archive torrents of roms from vimms lair and cdromance? They have hacks and translations that dont exist elsewhere and will probably be removed soon with ios emulation and retro handhelds bringing so much attention to roms and these sites
My kid has the first Nintendo Switch, he wanted the new one, but I told him “you’re getting a Steam Deck, and we’re smashing all Nintendo shit with a sledgehammer”. Then I explained to him why it’s wrong to support compaies that enshitify life, and now he is waiting for his Deck and has already pirated all the games he liked and has been testing a few emulators.
I like his logic about this. We paid for the games, so nothing wrong with using them however we want. I just want my kids to know they have options and use them.

I’m proud of him.
Thats some proper parenting right there. It sounds like you are raising an upstanding citizen.
