No, the E-shop has always been a pain in the ass to use. Plus I have multiple systems and buying a game to have it be locked to only that system is just retarded... Its kinda funny when you look at the fact that Sony's account system works so well that I constantly fear getting banned on my Cfw PS3 or my HENkaku Vita but never once have I feared getting banned on 3DS xD

only cons with piracy is its illegal and you probs won't get a new game day 1 with it
Haha more like we get it 3 or 4 days BEFORE day-1 lol I certainly buy as many games as I can but the sad truth is piracy allows games to have longevity outside of said company's account systems. 10 or 15 years from now Nintendo will probably be like "Nope we are shutting doen the E-shop, bye bye all those DL only games! (As they flush the toilet and Ace Attorney-Duel Destinies circles the drain"

Yeah, to put it on the Title Key database. Other than that I only buy games on cartridges, since I think digital downloads have no value whatsoever. Try lending a game from eShop to a friend, for example. If you can't do with it what you want you don't own it. Fuck that DRM'ed, non-transferable crap with a huge pinecone.

Yes but that's because of the WiiU. Nintendo basically just re-released the same system with a few more bells and whistles. They shut down the DS network a few years back and now people cant play DS games online or unlock DLC like in the Professor Layton games. You just never know when they will eventually pull the plug

Haha yes but your not understanding. Its inevitable that a company is going to shut down servers over time whether it be 10 years or 20. Somewhere down the line the only way you will be able to play some of these games is with a modded system and "piracy" or if its a physical cart then pay inflated prices from collectors.

all the eshop games will be dumped and be on that iso site if you ever want to play them and by that time the 3ds emulator will also be way more stable like i have gameboy advance emulators and roms because i have no gameboy to play it on since it broke emulators and piracy save old games since all the game boys in the world will one day break and with gbc games like pokemon they have a battery in them once they go dead you will no longer be able to save

Yes that's precisely the point of my first post. See below:

You're a lot less likely to get caught if you don't upload and seed.

with gen 3 they don't used batterys for saves but rse use them for clock based events and it means the pokedex cannot be completed because of shoal cave
