However, News18 can independently confirm that there are a bunch of other classic games that remain on the Microsoft Edge browser even now. Microsoft, after being notified of the incident, appears to be pulling down many of these unofficial game ports.
While browsers sporting classic games that you can play in a brief break from work on your non-gaming business laptop sounds like a very good idea, the problem here is that neither Microsoft and nor Nintendo have officially offered any of these games and their respective in-browser platform emulators, thereby creating a conflict in terms of piracy of content. The latter now happens to be Nintendo, and the debacle involves classic games and emulators that are apparently available on the Microsoft Edge browser, via its extensions.Īccording to a report by The Verge, the Microsoft Edge browser extensions store has apparently been hosting copies of a number of classic games, which include Super Mario Bros, Mario Kart 64, Pac-Man, Tetris, different versions of Sonic the Hedgehog, and Microsoft’s own Minecraft. Given its stature, such a platform hosting pirated content would come across to be a fair amount of trouble for Microsoft, and the involved party whose content has been wrongly duplicated. Microsoft Edge is among the more regularly used web browsers alongside Google Chrome, Apple Safari and Mozilla Firefox.
