I crack up at all the people on Lemmy insisting that this isn't pirating or about pirating. Yes it is. I pirate too, don't bullshit me guys. This isn't about Nintendo being an evil company, cause they keep their games exclusive, just like Microsoft does with PC games and nobody bitches. This isn't about Nintendo being selfish, it's about people who want to copy switch games, mod them, share them, and act as if it's a thing the copyright holder should be happy about lol
Again I pirate, so let's be honest, this whole thing is about ways to easily pirate and backup switch games, not the integrity of gaming.
This is the wrong crowd for that, mate. I’ve gone through this rodeo on Lemmy too many times and you’re just going to get dishonest people pretending that what they’re doing isn’t stealing. It’ll be everything from “preservation of games” to “it’s just like renting from a library” and all the extremes of dishonesty.
No one here’s going to be honest about it.
You're being just as dishonest as the people you accuse in two different ways: there are people already in the replies to this comment admitting to the same things, as well as making unverified claims that "they're actually pirating, they just won't admit it"
Except I’m not. The last time this discussion came up, I was downvoted to hell and no one said anything of the sort.
Even in these comments… most of the replies are that it’s not only about piracy. There’s one person that has said “Yeah, I agree… I pirate.”
