Free speech is indeed a great think!
But declare Gbatem is a "Piracy Forum" is something completly different and i think it is against the rules.

But anyway i think i leave it at that.

Have a nice day

Been happening for years. Code gets leaked/released and it's modified to do something that it wasn't intended to do. But on another note isn't that what your doing with Nintendo's code as well? Making it do stuff that it wasn't intended to do? You may not be attaching their name to it but to get annoyed that someone modified your release is ridiculous. If you believe in Karma, then you are also guilty and will incur its wrath.

Backup is the gbatemp friendly term for pirating a game, that’s what I learned on day 1 as a newcomer (which I still am). I mean: we’re all buying the TX SX Pro to play all our backups at once instead of having to go inside and find the card obviously!

So "Piracy" is allowed at Gbatemp?

We are against piracy but backup loader is fine .

Think of it like japanese porn .It's fine to have porn censored pixelated but illegal to show genitalia. Sorry can't think of any other analogy .

So as long you act under the pretense of using your own game backup it should be good. And to op stop being a soyboy snowflake.

I always thought that japanese men and women actually looked like that, are you sure it's pixelated? /s

[Albytrozz]

No worries, i will not remember your name

I think it'll be impossible now NOT to remember how that ToeGerm guy or whatever made that pirate software dirty bomb thing to steal food from crying hungry babies and give cute old grannies herpes... good thing he wrote that self-righteous post that now has 8 pages of sarcastic responses, that'll make sure his name is cleared...

Hey @tomGER here's a study which shows that piracy doesn't harm sales, may actually help

I wish mario and rabbids had a demo. I want to try-before-you-buy. If its good enough (I like xcom) I'll buy it, but I cant take that risk just blindly going in right now.

Yeah, I don't get why that game had no demo - I also want to test it before buying since I'm not sure if it really is worth it

I pirated a lot of games before, even more when I was a teenager and broke.
As an adult, I've already bought every single game I pirated, and some times to multiple platforms (e.g pirated DMC 4 and ended up buying it for PS3, Steam and PS4)

I pirated a lot of games as I was young, and I pirate even more as an adult because I can invest in hardware!!! yay piracy!!!
