I downloaded the program to try it, and noticed something. It requires a rom. In which case would be a illegal copy. 100% illegal. Even if you have the game. And the fact that your rendering the map and what not, I believe is copyright infringement.
As long as you own the game, you may get the ROM for it legally.

Can I Download a Nintendo ROM from the Internet if I Already Own the Authentic Game?

There is a good deal of misinformation on the Internet regarding the backup/archival copy exception. It is not a "second copy" rule and is often mistakenly cited for the proposition that if you have one lawful copy of a copyrighted work, you are entitled to have a second copy of the copyrighted work even if that second copy is an infringing copy. The backup/archival copy exception is a very narrow limitation relating to a copy being made by the rightful owner of an authentic game to ensure he or she has one in the event of damage or destruction of the authentic. Therefore, whether you have an authentic game 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 download and play a Nintendo ROM from the Internet.
Erm, that's just what it says on the Nintendo website, I think they may be a little biased though.

So it's legal if you beat the game in 23 hours 59 minutes or less, then delete it?

Loophole!

No, it's saying that even if you've only had it for a limited time that it is still illegal. They just gave 24 hours as an example.

BTW By supporting this, that is supporting illegal things.

<big><big><big>Another BTW! HAVING AN ILLEGAL COPY OF A GAME IS WORTH A LONG TIME IN PRISON AND <big><big><big><big>$250,000</big></big></big></big> FOR EACH GAME!</big></big></big>
First off, it's legal if you own and buy the game with your own money. Pirating games is illegal. Second, yell that out to SMWcenteral forums, and they'll bombard you. And last, the illegal issues were notified wayyy back in the thread, and trust me I know it's illegal.

Nook is right actually lol. Nintendo doesn't even care about SMWcenteral nor PokeCommunity (the rom hacking section) and those forums are more popular then this one.

Guys, you may not know this, but I'm an undercover cop, Nintendo sent me to track down some kids who were advertising an unauthorized Pokemon game on a popular Animal Crossing website.

I'm sorry boys, I'll have to take you under arrest.

Ok then, lets waltz on down to nintendo's site and look at the legal part!

And! If you look on the site rules, it even says, NO ROMS ALLOWED!

Ok then but i hope you do realise that I had a rom on my DESKTOP and i got a letter in the mail with all this, and I didn't expect this... So have fun when your in trouble. I'd know. It happened to me.
 
Seriously, Stop all your complaining. Storm isn't the only one who runs this site. DarthGohan, OCM, and Miranda say I can do this. I mean seriously, I'm not dumb or anything to know it's illegal.
