Especially Nintendo. I wouldn’t be surprised if Nintendo is less affected by piracy than games on PC just because of the barrier to entry to even be able to purchase a Nintendo game with the console being first required.
And Nintendo is the most expensive console too with how sales are so rare for their exclusives compared to the other consoles, so likely not even on the radar for pirates who are already looking to not spend money. Console doesn’t award even patient gaming with games not dropping much even after years go by for their exclusives.

What losses? Why do these people assume that pirates were ever going to purchase the goods they pirated?
