Im not in bed with Nintendo here, as I very much disagree with their aggressive stance against emulators and such - but I do believe that your argument ‘they don’t release it for PC so I’m gonna pirate’ doesn’t hold up. You can still support the people creating the games (which give you lots of hours of entertainment) by buying a copy for the Swtich. Some countries even allow you to back up your game cartridge and play it on PC so you’d be completely within your rights even.

I never said I'd pirate, I said I'm not going to buy the game.

I'd only be within my rights if I actually backed up the game, but I don't have a rooted Switch, so that's not an option for be currently. It's easier to just not buy the game.
