I completely agree. Emulators don't belong on Steam.

There are already emulators in steam, so...

[–] Carter@feddit.uk 4 points 1 year ago (5 children)

And evidently I don't think they belong there.

Say goodbye to all the Sega Classics and Mega Man Legacy Collections then.

Rereleases that utilise an emulator released by the rights holders is absolutely not the same as a general purpose emulator and you know it.

Piracy of games that are no longer being sold is piracy in name only
