Which IMHO is a shame - as I'm willing to pay them for all the hard work they've done in the pastRydian said:A quote from me in another thread.
AndrewsAwesome :For all the hard work the Maker/Updater does he really deserves to get some credit " $$ " . So is there anyway we can send him funds ? .........Rydian said:And this is one of the reasons I started this thread - but later I found this reply on the AKAIO forumsUltraMagnus said:why do people get so worked up about and put so much effort into stopping a pirated piracy device?'Cause people don't like it when other people sell their work, and clone flash carts are selling AKAIO.
In the game dev's case, they get paid either way because they made the product and somebody pays them...
But in this case free work is being done (AKAIO is not the official firmware) and somebody else (the clone makers) are making money off it, while the programmers of AKAIO aren't.
