That is piracy. No different then when someone tried passing around a download link for a PDF file of Ni no kuni wizard edition book untill they got shut down.
It says this on the home page of the site you linked.
This site is set up to digitally preserve video game magazines from 1999 and earlier for current magazines. The rules for defunct magazines vary on a case-by-case basis. We do this because issues of these magazines are not readily available from publishers/content owners.
While we don’t have legal permission, we operate in a way where we do not release anything that will reduce any potential income for you, or magazines that are available from you, nor do we release scans that are of a quality that may reflect poorly on you. So far this has worked, with several publishers/content owners basically ignoring our existence. However, if you wish that we do not make content that you legally have ownership available on this site,
just let us know and we will remove it. While we would prefer permission, we will fully oblige with your wishes concerning your content. This is a hobby we do out of passion and love for the video game magazines of yesterday, and not worth legal battles of any kind
[quote name='Vinny']Disagree with what? The fact that there are a lot of great DS games, or that I can't imagine something?
All jokes aside, I know it's subjective based on how many games you play and what you like, but still... I can't image saying to myself that there are 200 DS games that I absolutely must have. But I'm with Square, I wanna see your collection.

I agree. I know like 2 people who have complete N64 collections all US releases of 296 games. I tell them all them time 50/296 are worth owning or playing. Every other game is pretty much shovelware. Not as subjective as you make it to be. General consensus will agree the shovelware is crap. There is always someone out there who's going to like a video game and enjoys the shovelware. Like Zumba and Disney kids games etc.
