r/EmulationPiracy

not asking for links, im just new to emulation and im wondering how to stay safe. i just got emudeck, and i installed tomodachi life and luckily it wasnt a virus. in the future id like to know how to make sure im not downloading anything dangerous. like what file types to look out for etc. i just have a few games i want to play but i dont want to risk anything. are there any trusted megathreads or websites? ofc i know nothing is 100% safe, but id rather know what is trusted by the communiy. idk what im asking for i just wanna play games

I downloaded Triforce Heroes from Vimm's lair. It already came as .cci so I just loaded the game into the app but it's not reading it. Everyone says to decrypt cia files into cci but I skipped that step. I'm playing on android.

help 😮‍💨
