Re: Wii U roms?
Posted by WatchfulLurker on .
The general answer is "No."
To explain why, most Wii U games are still under the umbrella of "Modern Copyright" and would cause the legal system to crack down on Vimm's Lair/[Insert Emulation Website Here] much faster.
Consider that the latest vault to be added, the Wii, is comprised of games that are, at maximum, 14 years old. This is still pushing it kinda close, and the main way rom distribution websites stay up is that they skirt the line on stuff that companies do/don't care about. In 99% of instances, Nintendo doesn't care about roms for stuff like Wii, Gamecube, SNES, NES, etc.
Nintendo still cares a lot about Wii U/Switch Roms, and posting any here would probably cause them to, figuratively, break the website's neck.

The wii u has been discontinued for a long time now, i'm wondering if wii u roms are being considered for adding to the vault?
