:-[ I brought it up again. Whatever 2 turns out to be, it needs to address these specific examples: 1. Tengen Tetris (retail release, unlicensed) 2. Half-Life (Dreamcast) (Never released, only pirate copies exist) 3. Zelda: Parallel Worlds (Homebrew hack of real game, only exists as a ROM or on reproduction carts) 4. USA-style covers for Japanese only releases (chances are good this would be a translation hack on a reproduction cart) 5. Beats of Rage (Homebrew Dreamcast game) 6. Beats of Rage: The Simpsons Arcade (Homebrew with unlicensed IP) I can't think of any others. |

As I said in the private discussion point 1 makes sense for me the rest not. |
| AppleQueso:
They all seem fine to me. We're honestly far LESS likely to get in trouble for unlicensed/unreleased games than we are for the stuff we already host. We at one point allowed those games anyhow, we never had problems then, so honestly I think unwarranted paranoia quite frankly isn't a good enough reason to exclude these sorts of things. |
| UncleBob:
If we're going to allow covers for hacks/homebrew, I demand a cover for (NSFW) [spoiler]The Legend of Zelda: Link Gets Laid[/spoiler]. I've never actually played this game, but this article (also NSFW) totally shows just how deserving of a cover this game is. I'd probably get something like this on a repo cart, if there was an option for that. ;) |
| AppleQueso:
Unless we establish a concrete rule against, erm, adult games, I see no reason why we shouldn't host it so long as whatever cover is made passes quality standards. Hell the high quality standards we have alone should filter out most of the fluff anyhow. (also oh god I can't stop laughing reading that) |
