You're a disgusting cheap scumbag.

Eh wait till 2016 or something.
Then there might be backup loading.
I personally hope it's never going to happen.

Because gaining something without legally acquiring is wrong?

Exactly that.

I don't mind people pirating, I can't stand people being to cheap to purchase proper backup media ie. blank DVD's / good quality harddisks etc.
That and people that openly admit they don't want to pay for the games to support the developers, let alone "don't like to pay" for games.

It's nothing to be proud of.
You won't gain much friends with it as well.

Well some of us (like me) don't give two fuck-shits about pirating from large companies that overcharge for a ten cent plastic disc. I can't afford my entertainment beyond Steam sales (75% off or more usually). Besides, USB loading is way more convenient. No more scratched discs to worry about, faster load times, and all your games in a small, central location. Piracy is just all around better.

I would love to buy the games digitally if it wasn't locked to the console (wii u breaks? Sucks for you, you lose all 1500 dollars worth of games you had). But since Nintendo has such anti-consumer policies I don't really care if people pirate their games. Personally I'm buying the games physically than ripping them when the UKey or whatever it's called comes out. But I realize most people are just going to pirate games, still it's Nintendo's own fault for not treating consumers with respect.

When I go to a friend's house and hook them up with tons of emulators, roms, and free Wii games, they're super happy. So the whole "It's nothing to be proud of. You won't gain much friends with it as well." line is invalid.

You shouldn't have to call a Phone to redownload stuff. And I heard of many times where Nintendo has denied it. Point is Nintendo is way behind the times. I buy my games digitally on PC/Xbox/Playstation because I don't have to worry. But with Nintendo I have to be extra careful with my consoles to make sure someone doesn't steal/break them. But hopefully they change this later but for now it sucks and there is no reason to risk your purchases up to a "phone call".

    i dont know why tv manufactures put the hdmi ports in dumb locations so the cables have to stick out, and then down, putting strain on the ports. Instead of having the ports along the bottom edge of the tv facing downwards.
