It's never been ok to pirate a console that is still on the market. Though, part of that is how rare it has been for emulation to be feasible for a current console

How old are you? Almost every single console has been emulated before it's successor got released.

And even without emulators it has been possible to pirate games on most consoles during their lifetime, the Xbox One and Xbox Series being the only exceptions during the last 3 decades
