A weight on my coscience

Hi. For the first time I'm doing a blog entry NOT related to MLP, but it still involves my feelings personally speaking somehow.

Let's start with a premise: as a gamer (mostly retro, pretty much completely dropped modern since the change of direction and the definitive death of Nintendo to me) I don't support emulation, all the games I possess are 100% bought in phisical or digital version (save for exceptions, I play retro ones with the latter thanks to the Wii U's virtual console)..... eeexcept for Rare's games from its golden age. 

As many people know, after the N64 era, Rare was bought by Microsoft, which.... slowly killed, and its franchises are now Microsoft's property, with no chances to play their old games on Nintendo systems nowadays (the only games from Rare I possess legally are the Donkey KONG games which are all available on the Wii U Virtual console.... and Yooka Laylee, which while developed by Playtonic games, that developer is composed by the former Rare employes after they left it since Microsoft didn't let them doing a decent job, so I consider it a Rare game on every aspect). I really really really love Rare's games from its golden age, but I don't want to spend almost 400 euros for the One just to buy the Rare Replay with the full conscience I woudln't play anything else on it. So for those and JUST for those I use emulators..... should I feel ashamed for that? Or there is nothing wrong in doing just what I feel it is better for me?
