Fuuuuuck Nintendo. No one hates their fans more than Nintendo.
They are bricking brand new consoles, locking their USB ports to approved hardware, charging for the tech demo that would customarily be free on an $800 device. And that’s just this year.
I refused to buy anything Sony due to the dodgy shit from the PS3 days. And that’s anything, no TV’s or phones. Nothing. If a film is made by Sony I don’t go to the cinema to see it.
Microsoft is the same. I have only once bought anything from Microsoft and that was a licence for a windows operating system but I can’t even remember which version it was. I know it was from before Windows7. However, never again.
Bummer, I used that site a lot back when there were actual Switch games I wanted to play. Guess I’ll have to get Metroid Prime 4 elsewhere when the time comes!
I have torrented Mario Kart World one thousand times since it launched and have thus cost Nintendo 70,000 dollars. If I can keep up this pace, Nintendo will be bankrupt within the next year or two.
I love how they always try to pull the same bull that if the only way to obtain something like a ROM was through legal means that these companies would suddenly see a surge of millions more in revenue.
It’s just as absurd as the people who say that thoughts and prayers alone will eventually end all school shootings in America.
These loss figures are always fun. Me pirating a game i would NEVER have played otherwise is not a 50€(with todays game prices, 80€) loss for the company. On the other hand there are games that i pirated first because i wasnt sure it would be worth it for me to buy it and then actually bought it when i decided it would be fun to play and wanted to support the company.
I got into the Age of Wonders franchise through a burned disc by our upstairs neighbour as a child. I have bought every game (except planetfall) in that franchise by now. I’d probably never have tried that game without said burned disc
Yeah… they’ve been playing tbis broken record for decades now, if.what they say was true, there’d be no muaic industry, no film and tv industry and no game industry by now.

The government fights this hard over labor’s lost wages too, right?
Just chuckled at the idea of the FBI doing something valuable for society.
So Nintendo is gonna become richer by that amount in just 3 months?

And now Nintendo is on my shit list.
So now the company will have ~100m extra revenue in the next 3 months? Right? Right?

Fighting the good fight
It’s like girlsmath but for CFOs, I love it

That’s the same way I was introduced to Half Life. Valve has made that money back 1000 fold
Hey FBI thanks for letting me know about nsw2u cc I had no idea this thing existed…but now I do, so thank you.
seriously though I use the megathread and it has quite literally everything. literally the only good thing to come from reddit.
I am broke af I would never have bought the game if I didn’t get it for free. So they lose nothing if it’s from me. Same for TV series and movies.
Yeah… they’ve been playing tbis broken record for decades now, if.what they say was true, there’d be no muaic industry, no film and tv industry and no game industry by now.
