With games now jumping from one generation of consoles to the next, when is the best time to play something? Is there ever a best time?

Someone giving something away for free doesn’t mean other have to. Different companies can think what’s best for them independently. They don’t owe us anything because we live in capitalism.

It's exactly because we live in capitalism that, as consumers, we need to punish greedy behaviour.

That’s fine, avoiding things you dislike is very healthy. I question the actual dislike with the number of people pirating Nintendo stuff though. Not liking business decisions of a luxury toy maker doesn’t really give anyone right to just take it without asking.
