>Being scared of using "illegal" emulators
Illegal? My ass it's illegal. Fine, it might be a little illegal, but everyone does it. What now, you're gonna sue a huge chunk of the internet/world population for playing games on Emulators, and even the people that make awesome romhacks? Bullcrap.
It's not like you're gonna go to Nintendo's HQ and tell em you play on Emulators. Nobody gets in trouble, nobody gives a damn. If you wanna own games legally you're either a coward OR you want to make a huge game collection. But you hardly see any classic games for sale today. Even if you find one, you might not have the console to play it on. If you do have a working console, chances are the cartridge might be messed up. Classic games installed on your Wii isn't a collection, Having the actual cartridges is a collection. Why waste money buying some old game you probably won't care about in less then a month, when you can buy WiiWare games? WiiWare is better than any title on Virtual Console ever. Sure, the classics are nice but if you wanna save money, get roms.
tl;dr, quit being a bunch of whiney kids, emu or gtfo.
