Ah yes, let me pay $450 for a console that I have to pay an additional $80 for every game I want to play. What a sound financial decision.

I wonder if there would be communities, focused on playing these xbox360 era games on pc - after this

Anyone got links further educational reading on this matter?

nice but these tutorials seem to be about jailbreaking consoles not emulation, or am I wrong?

There are also resources on emulation. Generally speaking, if it's about console hacking, rom hacking, custom roms, homebrew, and general technical stuff, GBATemp is the place for it.

A lot of people that develop CFWs, emulators, or homebrew hang out on that forum.

However, be advised; the only reason why that forum is even alive after all these decades is because they're not allowed to directly link to pirated software.

but emulators are perfectly legal?

Of course I would buy the game officially

Which is why CFWs and emulators are shared there. Just not the games.
