Retro forum taboos: Why roms and not reproductions and pirate carts?

[Tokimemofan]

I personally don't have much of a problem with it in general. Where I do have a problem is when people start plucking out chips that are uncommon or convenient. Many of the SNES enhancement chips are in more desirable carts and are limited to very few titles. Also there are some that are just asking for a lawsuit, this one made my blood boil: http://www.ebay.com/csc/ocdgamers/m....mplete=1&rt=nc
Whoever bought those NES earthbound repros is an idiot, the Final Fantasy II repros are even worse.
