Ok so get this, this is the funny part

I do not even OWN " http://latest.nds-roms.com ," Not even affiliated to them ;;; Where they got that idea is beyond me.

Other funny part is they mention all the US Laws which does not apply to my servers..

The best part is that I'm not the first sole owner.

And they coudn't pick a better game? I mean come on... who cares about Speed Racer seriously..

Lmao I would have just deleted it lolz

[musman1986]

I would suggest that you should delete the games they told you to avoid any problems.

[robo-cop]

yes i have gotten a few of those. this is what i do i try not to post microsoft stuff in my guest download section. my general forum area you must register to view. major company stuff i post in the vip section so it's not easily available for them to view. but to be on the safe side just delete it or move it to a hidden section. also check your server logs you will see the hits coming to your site i used to get a lot from the big M

[UltimA]

just delete material on request, and you'll be fine.

@robo-cop: This is warner bros. not Micro. We have had issues with micro concerning us adding GTA IV on 0-day. The links were whiped so fast lol... (We still have direct, but rs/mu gone)

@Ultima: considering they contacted me in a gmail account, and me not being the real owner of the site. I will not remove any content until they contact the host.

If the host asks us to remove it, then maybe... We haven't had to remove anything on nitroroms, and we host roms/iso's from all generations of gaming including current gens.
