Emulation (Not piracy if you rip your own game. It is piracy if you download said game, even if you own them.), save backup (checkpoint), Linux (To play some PC game on the go. Not everyone has the money for a gaming laptop.), homebrew games, cheats...
There's many reason one would want to have control over its console that does not involve piracy.
I understand but for me personally that makes zero sense. Linux isnt even that well on Switch and save backup you have on the subscription service cloud.... no point ripping your own game when you can buy it from the eshop. I totally understand you though there is maybe a small percentage of people that not pirate but for me personally the soul purpose of me owning a gaming laptop was to pirate and that includes my other CFW systems.
To be very honest with you I play more of the games I had bought vs the ones I pirated. When you pirate a game you lose the value of it and 9/10 times you would download like 50 games and barely finish 10. I enjoy playing Mario Maker 2 online and Mario Kart 8 online. Online feels so alive while playing by yourself the game gets very easy and dull.
Considering I have all the current gen consoles and the gaming laptop for anyone that truly care about pirating the gaming laptop is the best choice. Next best choice is the Xbox One with Gamepass since most released games are available on there..EA pass get you all the battle field games and cool stuff. I mainly play my Xbox honestly.
