There is definitely no 24-hour rule for ROMS, and unlike software, you are not allowed to make backup copies. Quoted from any Nintendo game manual:
Quote:
WARNING: Copying of any Nintendo game is illegal and is strictly prohibited by domestic and international copyright laws. "Back-up" or "archival" copies are not authorized and are not necessary to protect your software. Violators will be prosecuted.
