They're making virtually 100% profit off of it in the long run. Yeah, you pay the workers a good what, month's worth of salary across a dozen people or so and then for the next six to eight years, you just rake in the money from having the games on there for a cheap price. Yeah, because all it takes is just uploading games onto a server. They don't have to do QA to make sure the games are emulated properly or anything. They certainly don't have to modify the emulation code to fix emulation errors. There definitely isn't anything they have to do from a marketing perspective to display the games in the VC eShop. It's totally just as simple as sticking a ROM on a server and putting a price on it. --- The problem with the internet today is that it's filled with entire generations that did not grow up with the great wisdom of the Wyld Stallyns. <cite>dainkinkaide posted [p:912405412] in Nintendo w...
