I don't steal from stores because I'm afraid I'll get caught.
I don't steal from other people because don't want someone else's used shit.

But I do pirate however.

...

basically this sums up what everyone is trying to say

there have been like 39057130597 of these polls
and we dont really call it stealing
just pirating
stealing is more like. going into the game store. and jacking the games
we actually have to pay for the flashcart/d

and most of us got confused by your poll, because the answers are completely switched based on what part we voted on (the part that we "own the real thing" or "do we steal")
and people are just complaining about your grammar (maybe insert some periods or something)

oh and one more thing
the reason why we most of us are here is basically because
well, because we can discuss flashcar(t/d)s on here
...which means..
yes.. we do "steal"
and no we dont "own it"

Your summarizing skills astound me.

I pay my ISP for bandwidth and legally purchased a flashcart.
I guess i'm in the clear.

Regardless, wiidslover according to your country's law you (as already pointed out by Urza) backing-up/downloading the games you already own, is the same as someone downloading the game and not owning it.
So get off your high horse and come join us 'Thieves'. Cause guess what your just another pirate, minus the ability to convey a point within a understandable sentence.

in conclusion,
Your sir are the one that is lying. So after all those 20+ games you purchased, you are in just as much risk of being pinned as all of us. Congratulations.

We are pirating.
We are slowly killing the game industry.
We do it anyway.

There is no point in asking why a drug addict takes drug or why a smoker keeps smoking even when its bad for them and also bad for the people around them.

They just do.

Except in our case we don't hurt ourself directly, we hurt the small companies that makes games and eventually they can't survive and collapse. So in the end we get less games. However we save tons of money. Thats why most pirate to begin with. Not all can afford to buy the games, especially in the Asian countries where the general income is less and piracy/fake products are rampant.

It is wrong to pirate, but its almost a way of life in this part of the world.

great the topic starter is the wrong question , of course s/he will get the wrong answers.

"just wondering how people use there cards, i like the homebrew scene," how do you want an answer to this when you ask if people steal?


This is why most people hate polls. The question is loaded for the wrong answers.

I really only play the games to test them out, if I like it I will transfer my save file to the legit card. Oh and if it is an import and I don't feel bad emulating because of the wonders of patching ect.

This really isn't the best place to be discussing morality...
I personally do not pirate games at all, unless I'm merely transferring mediums (for example: I'll download all of my NES games that have decayed connectors, rendering them unplayable), but past that I'll purchase all of my games. Many people don't seem to realize that they don't NEED to play games, and use a lack of money as an excuse to pirate. Games cost a considerable amount of money to produce, and pirating a game has about the same effect as stealing a candy from a 7/11.

I have stolen nothing. Nobody missed the object that I pirated, I just created a copy of the data that was available on the internet.
