I found this article about a week ago
Now I just cant get this out of my head, THQ thinks they are losing revenues because of roms and piracy. THQ is about the worst company there is, Im not even sure how they go about making games, but im sure its similar to the episode of south park that depicts how family guy episodes are made.
THQ is not selling many games because they plain out suck. Even when they get a good franchise like WWE, UFC, they really know how to run something into the ground. They are the absolutely worst people who should be commenting on the video gaming industry, what a horrible shitty company THQ. They dont even deserve to be talking about Nintendos 3DS, nor should they be allowed to release anymore games.
lol here is a list of all the great games THQ gave us..
THQ Games Full List of Releases
The Nintendo DS software market is often reported as being more heavily affected by piracy than its home console cousins, so third-party software publishers welcome Nintendo's claims that its upcoming 3DS handheld would be a tougher nut to crack -- and THQ executive Ian Curran corroborates those statements, saying "there's technology built in that device to really combat piracy."
"The problem with the DS market in the last few years, particularly with the DS Lite, is that it's just been attacked by piracy. It's made it almost impossible to shift any significant volume," Curran said to Computer And Video Games. The DSi combated it a little bit, but the 3DS has taken that a step further."
Portable game piracy has been a hot-button issue among publishers and analysts. "We fear a kind of thinking is become widespread that paying for software is meaningless," Nintendo president Satoru Iwata said earlier this year. And Japan's CESA trade organization claimed last month that portable console game piracy has cost the worldwide game industry $41.5 billion over five years.
Despite his confidence, Curran was not able to describe the mechanism by which the 3DS is expected to thwart pirates.
"I actually asked Nintendo to explain the technology and they said it's very difficult to do so because it's so sophisticated," he said. "They combated the piracy on Dsi, which they don't believe is cracked yet, but they know they've been hurt across the world and they believe the 3DS has got technology that can stop that."
