Well, I tried it last night and it seems to work A-OK.

The answer: Because it enables you to play games which you'd probably never have the chance to play otherwise. Even though I've seen you argue in the not-so-distant past that playing a ROM isn't the same as owning the real thing, I don't believe that you're completely against playing a ROM. After all, it's not like you've got the actual arcade cabinets of Space Harrier or Rastan sitting in your house. In my opinion, if the emulator is in good working order, it's basically the same as owning the actual game, and I couldn't care less if the sound is 98.53787% exact.
