"The older I get, the more I realise how much tastes can change over a lifetime. Food, music, favourite television programs, they all change over time, so it’s natural to assume one’s choice of hobby can change too. With that in mind, the question of whether I’ll always remain a gamer has become increasingly fascinating to me. Ten, fifteen years ago, there would have no question in my mind; I’m a gamer for life, but now? I’m not so sure. Ever since I realised that my PlayStation 4 pre-order was partly due to the muscle memory of always buying the latest console, I’ve come to realise there will probably be a time when I no longer want to be a gamer. Having come to that conclusion, I find myself asking if I’m the only one feeling this way. Do you see yourself as always being a gamer?

Even if they do crack down all a person needs is an Everdrive and a regular old school machine. Or modify a disc based console that has a dead laser to boot off an SD card. Some of those illegal devices look neat and some of them are just plain crap.
What a stupid thing to be wasting time, money and effort. Aren't these guys literally drowning right now? Maybe y'all should focus more on that instead trying to stop people from playing old games no longer being sold.
Pretty sure I've read and seen parts of Italy experiences/ing pretty bad floodings. Id argue that's more important than trying to prevent the sale of emulation devices.

College and work have significantly slowed down my game time and when I start my career I can almost kiss my gaming goodbye. It's fun playing with friends now more than just singleplayer games because I can sit down, play a game or two, then get back to whatever it is I need done atm.
nope...once a gamer always a gamer.
Never!
