EmuParadise stops hosting ROMs for older consoles

EmuParadise is a ROM download website that until very recently, hosted downloads for games and BIOSes of older consoles such as the PSP, NES, SNES, Genesis and many others. However, this changed with a recent announcement that shook the website to its core.
Yesterday, EmuParadise, which has been online for 18 years, announced that the website’s going to start following a different path; that is a path without hosting retro ROM and BIOS downloads. This decision came due to the fear of legal action being taken against the website which could potentially lead to disastrous life-changing consequences for those who run the site.
Farewell sweet prince!

It is possible that EmuParadise stopped serving ROMs because of Nintendo’s lawsuit against Jacob Mathias, the owner of LoveROMs and LoveRETRO. In that lawsuit, Nintendo is suing for $100 million which is a enormous sum of money that ROM websites, being mostly run by hobbyists, can’t afford to pay.
