And here I am not knowing the last time I pirated a game. It's been over a decade probably
Meanwhile, I'm probably going to pirate Xenoblade Chronicals X as it's only available on the Wii U and fuck buying/renting one to deal with 1 game.
I pirated a game yesterday. That game was a console game for a console that hasn't been sold in 20+ years. I don't feel bad about it.
If the publisher had wrapped it in an emulator and stuck it on steam for $5 I'd probably have just bought it.
If Nintendo did that you'd know they'd still charge the same full price for a Nintendo title.
They are doing that, except that you need to pay for a subsceiption to play those games
