Man, I pirate stuff all the time, I just don’t like people making up things to explain themselves, especially if I know they can afford stuff they pirate.
Yes, if it’s old or you can’t afford it then just get it. Copyright, trademark and patent laws are a joke and it’s a sensible way to revolt over them.
Latest Nintendo dealings with Switch emulation give me mixed feelings. Yuzu was obviously benefitting monetarily (Patreon) from encouraging piracy (showing games before their release). Fuck those guys. Nintendo shouldn’t have gone after Ryujinx though and I’m quite angry about it.

Eh, I would suspect that a majority of games “pirated” are game you can’t buy anymore (ot at least not realistically).
Also is it pirating if I can’t find my copy of the game anymore?
