Sorry guys, I don't own a console. Haven't for years.
Not only that but I don't really have money for a console, or want to deal with the low visual fidelity that comes with the territory.
Do I plan on expanding my game library one day? Yes, I plan on expanding my classic game library into something amazing one day, but after I graduate college.
Kind of irrelevant either way because most likely if I am able to find a copy of Metroid Prime on Game Cube, none of that money will go to Nintendo. Even more irrelevant since I don't even put optical media drives into my builds anymore, or have a console to rip the disc.
I'm sorry that offends you so much and I wish I had the money or time to go out and find a copy.
Thanks for the help, sounds pretty similar to what I've been researching.
Just as an FYI, piracy is not only a morally reprehensible act, it is a bannable offense to admit to it on these boards. And while I am sure a lot of Dolphin users in this thread don't buy their games and rip them, they don't out and out admit to it.
