    Old games fall into a weird limbo wherein it's all second hand sales unless it's on a virtual library platform like steam or the virtual console. So is it really breaking a law if the copyright holders were never going to see money from that sale anyway?

      It's still copyright infringement, which is illegal. The concept of intellectual property is beyond stupid. Especially now with how easily information can be copied ad-infinitum, there's no enforcement mechanism that isn't just pissing in the wind.
