Changes

Two days after Bleem! started taking preorders for their emulator, Sony took umbrage and sued the company for unfair competition and copyright infringement. Bleem! won the suit on all counts, in that their way of reverse-engineering the PS1PlayStation's inner workings was done lawfully, and the use of PlayStation game screenshots was deemed fair use. A protective order was issued to "protect David from Goliath".

This ended in a pyrrhic victory, however, as the lawsuit forced Bleem! out of business due to legal fees. Despite this, the case established a precedent legitimizing console and computer system emulation - no emulator author has since been sued for copyright infringement (apart from a DMCA complaint from Nintendo over a Github GitHub repo hosting a [[Game Boy Advance emulators|Game Boy Advance emulator ]] that came with some of their games).
