Zelda 1 modded into a different version where he had a black ninja tunic and only the boomerang and every room had a boss in it........and this was probably like 13 years ago.
I did some tape to tape copies of VIC20 games first of all I guess. Later on the C64 I started to get games from other people on the <-L turbo tape "backup" and worked out how to copy games to this myself and then to disk etc, the rest is history I've "cracked" a lot of games.
SWAT 2, and it was riddled with viruses. The joys of P2P. It probably had some r@ygold stuffed in there too, like everything else.
This was when I first "knowingly" pirated a game. We used to copy floppy games all the time. Shit, our school used to copy floppy games all the time. It wasn't a big deal back then and I wasn't really aware that it was illegal.
When I was a kid I used to have an amiga and nearly every game we got with it was pirated.
First game I got pirated for myself was medal of honor on the ps1, a policeman that was going out with my friends sister made a copy for me and my friend
Pretty much every game we had for The Amiga when I was a child was pirated. Don't think we had many legitimate games for it. Lol The first game I remember getting a pirate copy of was Gran Turismo for PS. That's where it all began for me.
Mario Kart DS on my original R4. I remember because it was only DS game that I owned at the time so I figured it was "ok" to download a copy. xD. God bless you Nipper, wherever you are.
Before that, I remember buying bootleg 2600 games at the swap meet with generic, typed stickers for labels.
My dad went to a japanese man and got my ps1 chipped. I borrowed spyro 2 from my friend and my brother burned it with nero burner (i believe it was called lool).
Spyro 2 Gateway to glimmer was my first pirated game! I loved it still do
Earthbound for the snes. I was so excited to have hacked my psp in a land where video games didn't exist. It started with Earthbound, and continues till today.
First one I ever played was Adventureland on the TRS-80, but I didn't acquire that myself, it was something my dad brought home along with the computer.
First myself, no idea, but it would have been on the PC, used to pass disks around with friends all the time.
