With the price increase for retro games and retro consoles – seriously, just look at how much gamecube games are used to cost then and now – more and more players are turning to emulation as a way to experience the past. That, or waiting for different developers to release their older titles through collections, such as the coming Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection.

The state of physical gaming collection is without repair
As a physical game collector, the future seems difficult.
However, it seems that even emulation of games has its own risks. Only ask Italian Youtuber once was a nerd, which faces a lithany of legal fees, including the potential for prison time – everywhere to create videos with emulated devices.
Be careful what you show on Youtube, otherwise you will face the consequences
As first reported by Android Authoirty, once was Nerd, which covers retro games in depth on Youtube, faces legal consequences that are not from the discussions they have, but rather the devices they use.
Specifically, Youtuber says that authorities from Guardia di Finanza appeared in their house with a keyword related to promoting pirated materials. There they seized a variety of handheld emulation units.
These emulation units are seemingly the subject of his legal problems, as they often deliver with computer cards filled with Rome with copyrighted games. According to the Android Authority, ownership is subject to charges under Article 171 of Italian copyright. The penalty for violations includes fines and three years of prison time.
Meanwhile, a gofundme has been set up to cover Youtuber's legal expenses. There he believes that his case will go to trial and has already begun the process of getting advice, according to a separate translation via PC player.
Right now it is unclear when a potential trial will begin. So far, the Creator's Youtube page is still up, and he has met almost 90 percent of his gofundme goal.
