One Of The Web's Oldest ROM Sites Removes Games By Nintendo, Sega And Lego

A shame for sure, but piracy in general is far too decentralised for "site taken down" to be an effective block. All (or at least 99.5%) of those ROMs will be available elsewhere.
Damn. I knew this would happen eventually, I guess. I've been avoiding mentioning them by name on public sites for years in hopes of keeping the heat off.
Same. Sad to see it go.

There's an audio log in the first Bioshock where Andew Ryan talks about a time when a property he owned got eminent domained by the US government to be turned into a national park so he burned the forest to the ground
A tragedy, for sure. Vimm's Lair also happens to be one of the best examples of a great Web 1.0 site. It gives me a warm feeling, browsing around static, text-mostly pages.
