    Didn’t Nintendo do this when they started selling “their” ROM’s in their virtual console? I remember some hubba about the .nes format?

      Yeah. I think they also used an emulator. I don’t remember which game/system it was though.

      It’s like Disney releasing a Micky Mouse movie, buts it’s actually Felix the Cat.

        It’s more like Disney releasing Mickey Mouse into the public domain.

      It was that they were using roms ripped straight from the internet, they left the headers in place.
