it looks so amazing.

*censored.3.0* you.

Go out and buy the game like everyone else. Support the developers for making such an amazing game, dammit. >_>

I see it as a "try before you buy" type of thing.

Until the person gets lazy and says "why should I buy this if I already have it for free?" >_>

lol @ the notion that Nintendo needs money.

Edit - What is this, 2003?

Every company needs money to survive. Sure, Nintendo may have a lot of money already, but they certainly deserve money for their games, especially for a masterpiece like this one. Besides, for every person who pirates the game, that's just that many people who won't buy it. And that's not only a problem because the developers aren't getting money from those people, but also because those are potential sales that could have been recorded. New Super Mario Bros. Wii would've had more than a million more sales than it already does if it weren't for piracy. I just hope that this title doesn't meet the same fate, because it's certainly deserves better than that. Pirates make me sick. >_>

Your puppy-like obedience to a multinational corporation notwithstanding, that lecture was entirely unnecessary.

I think I will use SMG2 as as my motivation for doing well in exams, much like riding a donkey whilst dangling a carrot infront of its face...

Then they should be out looking for a *censored.3.0*ing job, or helping their parents out somehow, not hanging around on forums.

Maybe he was just speaking in general. Or maybe they have a job and are not blessed by the same level of income your parents have. Ass.

Yes, and then you shed a single tear when Nintendo loses approximately 10 dollars in profit. If that.

Why can't you understand that I'm not just a fanboy, and that I honestly love Nintendo for the products they create, just as I'm sure you have a favorite developer that you love? Yes, Nintendo has money, but they deserve that money. And piracy is just wrong no matter how you look at it, so it doesn't matter if the company of the pirated game has tons of money or not. It's thievery.

But it's not just one person. It's many people. Thousands, sometimes millions.

And, like I said, it's not just Nintendo's profits that get hurt. The overall sales of the game also suffer.

So? That doesn't justify thievery. By that logic, it's fine for anyone to just go to a store and steal whatever they want if they don't have the money for it. Um...WTF? No.

Mmm. Let's assume that ten thousand people know how to pirate an ISO and use it on the Wii. And I think that that's meeting you more than halfway. That amounts to $100,000 in lost profit, if we assume that my guess that of a 10 dollar profit on each disc is correct. We're also assuming that none of those people buy the game, either.

For the fiscal year ending on March 31st, 2010, Nintendo took in $2,400,000,000. That comes out to about a .004% loss, or four-thousandths of a percent. Ouch. I think Nintendo will keep loving you if you let this one slide without being a real ass about it.

I'm saying of course you're not going to admit to your fanboyism, they never do. It's part of the disease.

That's interesting that you have automatically graduated media pirates into grand larcenists in one giant logical leap. Perhaps you haven't considered that a line is drawn somewhere? Somewhere between getting access to something a media giants owns for personal use and, as you said "stealing whatever they want."

I suppose at this point you have to ask yourself what's more important to you:

Nintendo making money.
People enjoying Nintendo.

Funny, you completely ignored the second part of that post. I said, it's not just Nintendo's profits that get hurt. The overall sales of the game also suffer. What could become a multimillion seller may not thanks to piracy. As I said before, New Super Mario Bros. Wii would have sold many more copies if it weren't for piracy. I know that Nintendo can still thrive with a little less profit, but that's not the key point. Also, piracy in some countries is so bad that they just completely stopped selling games there. For example, I think it was in Brazil, they don't even sell DS games anymore because so many people pirate games with an R4 instead of buying them. Piracy completely destroyed the video game market there.

I don't understand why you're trying to justify piracy. You wouldn't justify any other type of thievery, would you? Nothing good comes from piracy.

Good God quit arguing about this already.
