This has gone past surreal. I would have assumed the iROMs service would only make ROMs available for the emulator used by Foley's Arcade Legends and Ultracade...the one running Joshua OS that they've ?developed? Is he planning on offering technical support to get his ROMS running under MAME? |

These are exactly the questions someone that actually owned the rights to a game title would ask. |

From what I can tell, JoshuaOS is some sort of Unix derivative. If a bunch of us were to put a little cash together and get the $1000 conversion kit (and then perhaps return it after we realize it's crap) - what chances do you think we'd have of someone here deciphering the emulator code from the OS? |
| romperwomb:
What about those poor saps that bought his Arcade Legends home market system...unless he charges the same prices for the iROMS as he does for his Arcade Legends game packs. What is to stop them from MAME'ing their machines, purchasing the ROMs for cheap on iROMS and running an Ultrastyle Frontend? Would he have to send himself a Cease and Desist order for unfair competition for his own service? -one hand clapping... |

I would presume this EULA would include a clause where you would have to agree not to reverse engineer his product. |
