Ok first off I'd like to say that I know a lot of people here play the games in the game room but not everyone does. anyways my point behind this is that i am 17 and my 12 year old sister calls me a thief when i download roms. Now I could understand if she did that when I download say a DS rom but she says it about all of them. The way I look at it is when a system becomes unsupported or a pc game isn't sold in stores anymore i don't see the problem with downloading it. i also have no problem with downloading games never released in America or downloading one that you actually own a legal copy of. So do you guys think I'm stealing when i download a rom of a discontinued system? and if you do then please explain who am i stealing from if the company doesn't even sell the games anymore?

Unfortunately some people (like your sister it seems) think that roms themselves and the concept are a bad thing and wont listen to reason at all.
We have a similar thread at https://www.vizzed.com/vizzedboard/thread.php?id=2895 which talks about this matter so I'll ask you to make that post again in that thread as per the policy of restricting doubles of threads.
