Game over

A screenshot of the last image that PD members saw when Pleasuredome decided to close (Sept. 26, 2021). It can be seen below. The Game over image is being preserved for nostalgia.



mcr — 09/28/2021 You want a detailed explanation for this? OK. When PD started it was ROMs and CHDs only, MAME and MESS were not merged and most of the emulated games were decades old and no-one was interested in middle aged men reliving their youth. Today the emulation scene has merged somewhat with the piracy scene (current gen emulated) and the retro scene is huge and lucrative. People used to be grateful for whatever you could provide but the world changed so people who are at no risk of being prosecuted are acting all entitled and telling staff (for example) what we should and should not be doing or hosting. Risk has increased, when we started we were all younger and had the ability to only think of ourselves, most of us now are married with children and grandchildren, mortgages and assets, there is simply too much to lose now. I hope that has explained it once and for all.
