Technically you could buy this pack from steam (it's on sale), transfer the roms onto an everdrive, and it would be 1000000% legal and shelf collector fags would be 9000000000000% BTFO right?

>BTFO
why?
also, are they roms?
Is that how it works?
Say I buy metal slug on steam.. But I don't wanna use the shitty emulator Dotemu has provided me. I can just use winkawaks or mame and it would be legal?

>are they roms?
Of course they are. Sega wants a quick buck. Why on earth would they waste time and money porting every game?

Is that a bundle including all the games/packs together? Where is that located I want to just buy them in one bundle
Technically, you could just emulate them for free instead of buying an overpriced Flash cart from you-know-who.

There's nothing illegal about an emulator you dingus
Assuming there's no encryption to circumvent that would be a violation whatever your local equivalent of the DMCA's anti-circumvention law is, yes.
Didn't Sega basically say they didn't give a fuck about people sharing Genesis roms?
You can also just download roms from any website, add them to the folder of sega mega drive and genesis classics and play them as if you owned them

>legal
Literally who the fuck cares. Are you teaching your orthodox catholic grandparents how to emulate?

exactly, I know it's a retarded moral argument, but there are people out there who defend buying the game saying everdrives aren't "LEGIT".
I was illustrating the futility of that argument that seems to be parroted so commonly.

Most likely the steam shit is only licensed to run on steam. Read the license if you give a fuck.
Even if they somehow fucked up and didn't restrict the license it wouldn't bother collectorfags in the slightest. The simple fact that the collector can sell his shit and you cant makes you the one who's 9000000000000% BTFO.
