Sad news tonight. Nintendo of America has requested for 717 games and their images to be removed from The Vault. Each download plus it’s box art and screen shots are no longer available.

    If you look at the replies a lot of people are thinking copyright trolls are responsible and it’s not actually Nintendo

      They said the same thing when the Garry’s Mod takedowns were issues and Nintendo later confirmed it was them. So, I’m not gonna hold my breath

        Even if it wasn’t trolls it doesn’t sound like they were willing to take the risk

        Fair enough. Most people don’t seem to use Vimm’s Lair for downloading sets. They mostly seem to use it for sporadically downloading a couple titles. Especially for newer systems like the PS3 or Wii for example.

        Their labeling of what hasn’t been archived is also neat to see.
