    A point the video makes is that derivative works (ROM hacks, translations, etc) are made much more difficult to access as well by Nintendo killing the sites entirely. Those hacks are works in progress with many new hacks released even in the present day.

      True, although despite Nintendo’s efforts, I’ve never had any trouble finding their roms. It’s certainly easier now than it was 20 years ago!

        I didn’t even have issues finding ROMs before the 2000s… Maybe patched/translated ones yeah, but bare ROMs… I don’t think so.

          There was just less stuff in general on the internet back then, so it was more a case of less places to find them.
