Not really a big Skype person, for now we can continue with PMs on the forum. I can see if I can sometime hop on the phone with you. Guess we need to talk in English as I don't speak German. We can talk about these projects for sure then.

Alright, I thank you for responding in this way. This is very helpful and positive. I hope we can resolve this situation this way. Also, there are a couple of PMs I sent - if you are up for it, we can definitely discuss RetroPi again, and maybe you could reconsider my proposal for some custom...

I think you are misrepresenting what happened those months ago @EvilDragon regarding that RetroPi thing. Either that or we simply disagree on the stances we took and where both people were coming from. I am willing to talk it through with you in PM and come to some kind of mutual understanding...

And that would be fine. I am not against that. So I don't even see why anti-TIVOization should be an issue then if what you describe is correct about the firmware replacement. Maybe they just assumed there was more to it than met the eye, whatever. It was always my intent to come back to you...

None of these guys care about respecting anything, least of all a license. They just want to make (illbegotten) money off Mega Drive/SNES/arcade emulation, no matter whether the cores are noncommercially licensed or not. And that is all there is to it. Any suitable bullshit gets manufactured...

Actions speak louder than words. By continuing to sell it, I don't see how anybody is trying to 'adhere to the spirit as well as the words of the license'. You can dance and tip toe around this subject all you want, doesn't change reality. 'Oh something is non-commercial but hey if I can come...

> 'apparently approved by a lawyer' LOL. A lawyer whose credentials I'd very much put into question if he co-signed on this nonsense and one that might not even be particularly well versed in corporate IT law. Yeah, I'd put a lot of stock into that. Anyway, if this is the caliber of business...

I sticked around for the explanation on the Time Machine and yeah, I pretty much figured it would lead to some kind of vapid loophole that is completely untested in court. I don't even think it's a loophole, I think that would be giving it too much credit. I think it's complete bunkum that...

There is no 'software development team'. All they have seemingly done is take stock RetroArch, bundle it up with emulator cores they did not even write themselves (we wrote them instead). Those are not 'developers'. So all this 'China software development team' does is take our combined effort...

I don't understand why it's such a big deal either, which is why I'm all the more disappointed that apparently it's used as a justifying reason for calling the whole thing off. I don't understand either why they were under the mistaken impression that by giving us a percentage of the sales...

We (EvilDragon/me) should stop attacking each other then. I also would appreciate if he would retract his previous statements where he is encouraging forum members to call my character into question based on unsubstantiated hitpiece blogs that honestly tell a very slanted story from the...

There has been very little 'cooperation' going on. Most of the time they just think that playing a business version of Catfish causes you to drop and ignore the parts of the GPL they choose to not like or not want to follow. There is almost zero intent by these companies to do things the right...

Not that it's relevant, but I come from the Netherlands, a neighboring country of Germany no less, so it's not like English is my native language either and I know for a fact that English is pretty much considered a compulsory secondary language in both countries. So there is literally zero...

Wow. And here I thought you actually had good intent. Guess it's par for the course considering how much 'backstabbing' you get in this slime-infested 'huckster retro scene'. Whatever it takes to pay off that debt that Craigix sattled you with, eh? Is this how the creator of the...

People should stop throwing this in emulator developers' faces, especially when it's untrue - https://www.gamasutra.com/blogs/LarsDoucet/20180301/315059/Doing_an_HD_Remake_the_Right_Way_Chrono_Trigger_Edition.php So no, less and less people are falling for this weak propaganda, and it's...

I don't care anymore to hear the justification or rationale. I'm out.

It is not my problem how he chooses to get rid of it. That is the cost of doing business and allying with the wrong people. And you already assume by that - that there actually was an intent to stop selling them. There is no indication of that provided whatsoever. What I do know, is that...

https://pyra-handheld.com/boards/threads/time-machine-v3-2-player-edition.82103/ Seems to date back to November 2017. We can maybe give him one month where we could attribute this to 'ignorance' before our article dropped on the misuse of this emulator software (although honestly, earlier...

Oh yeah, this little rundown scrappy IT store in Spain between 1 to 10 employees that cobbled this mess together surely must have all properly licensed this! I would totally take them at their word and all that! https://www.facebook.com/imedia.es/?rf=117039361697201 At this point if he still...

No they don't and CANNOT have an agreement. There is NOBODY at Snes9x that sells anybody licenses. There is nobody to talk to from Final Burn Alpha or MAME that could give them the permission to sell this. This is just shady bullshit entrepreneurs parasitizing off people whom they know don't...
