I know it says discussion of ROMS will "get you banned", but does that include NES/SNES/N64, etc. games that you play on an emulator. The reason I ask is because, obviously emulators can be downloaded directly through the Homebrew Channel, and the Wiki pages contain game compatibility lists, so it seems somewhat at odds that discussion of these games in the Wiki forums would not be allowed. Have I misunderstood what's meant by ROMs? Anyway, just thought I'd check. Peace!

You can talk about emulators, but can't ask stuff like were to download ROMs, because in some countries its illegal to download ROMs, even if you owned the original. In the UK its legal AFAIK, but most other places I believe it is illegal.

If you just mention the rom, or ask about an emulator-caused bug involving the rom, it's ok. You can even brag about your ROM collection. As long as you don't quote WHERE you got them, or offer them out, you're free to talk about them, I believe.
