I think they did them just right. I wouldn't go farther, but I'm very happy with how it was done. That being said, I don't expect them to do it like that again because it would just be too predictable

Personal preservation is perfectly valid and doesn't automatically mean sharing aka piracy. If killing emulation prevents a legit owner from playing their game you're diminishing the authority of that ownership. Now I'm not arguing all claims of personal preservation are always ok since some games give you a limited license to play and are not owned, but that just means it's important to see the nuance

There's no simple answer to that since games become inaccessible in different ways and with different severities. It'll always be an argument you have to make.

It's not about the number of years, it's about how accessible the original title is. The less accessible, the better you can justify the existence of emulating that title

It was a good decision. It was also smart of them to review the initial 100 planet goal to add some much needed context

I understand, what confused me was your claim about the common understanding of the term when there are very much two valid and ubiquitous contexts.

I can understand you have different criteria for dedicated servers, but private servers are certainly not generally characterized by still being on 1st party hardware. You need only look at private servers for Minecraft, WoW, and the like
