This is the first time that I read about their current position. Another sign that the old internet is dying. I mostly blame idiots that are buying these useless Amiibos and dumb re-releases of the games that they already played and never touched them again.
I feel bad for the people like the soldiers or the people that lost their siblings and were searching their memories of the dead ones in videogames, but people like to support dumb capitalism and not the creator of the games will be helped financially, only the greedy investors at these publisher powerhouses, since these old contracts don't include download games, they mostly include physical old school games, if it works like music contracts.
It is totally a sad thing. I wish them well and these soldiers etc. saved their stuff.
Yours sincerely
Jack Caeylin

People are blaming Nintendo and their strict copyrights for this.

This is so goddamn depressing. "Batman" on the NES is never going to be on Virtual Console or any other service. "Sweet Home" will never be rereleased. It would be one thing if entire libraries were put up and offered for sale ad infinitum, but there's a snowball's chance in Ft. Worth of that ever happening.
So so so pissed.

FTR, they did this in fear that somebody could strike them with a hefty demand, not just Nintendo but remember guys that this is the internet. If you kill one website, many more will resurge from its ashes.

It boils down to it being a big target because of how well known the site is. There are other worlds than these.

WTF?? Troll post? This sounds something straight out of a Trump rally.

It boils down to it being a big target because of how well known the site is. There are other worlds than these. Indeed, it's trivial to find mega-torrents with every conceivable available game. (It is perhaps not so obvious that one can use one's torrent client to select particular files rather than downloading the whole shebang.)

At least I have what I want saved on some flash drives or other rom saving devices. Just as long their not lost I can continue playing emulation.

Torrents most likely won't be as complete or up to date as Emuparadise was. They did a fantastic job over the years of adding fan translations and foreign releases.

Not public torrents, but private torrents are complete.

Since most people won't have access to those, they aren't really an alternative.

Yea I can't say I didn't see this coming. Nintendo IP has been slowly disappearing off Emuparadise for years now.

The French site PlanetEmu is likely next, since they've also taken down anything for Nintendo Systems.
