Look guys, stop arguing. I've decided to stop my pirating. I'm gonna finish one last game (Inazuma 3 - Spark) and that's it.

I might pick it back up one last time for The Ogre, but until then, anyone got an Inazuma 3 Spark save before the America match or beginning of Ch.7?
Good choice. I quit for the most part about a year ago, though I still self-pirate and import-pirate, those are things I have no qualms about (well, that's not so true for import pirating, I just don't have the money). Also, in rare cases I pirate if I know I'm going to buy it, but it's hard when retail stores don't sell the games anymore.
Yeah. It's kinda hard when no one sells Inazuma Eleven. :/

You think that's bad, I've been trying to find Ace Attorney in stores for years now.

It doesn't matter, it's a device used to bypass piracy measures for their own devices and use it in a way that is not intended. Therefore they have every right to destroy it. Sucks to be out 40 bucks plus the amount the MSD was :\
Theoraticly, they can... BUT, and a very very big but, they aren't allowed to destroy the ds2.. They don't own it, and it's 8bit's very own possesion. However, due to breaking some terms here and there, you might want to look out.
Although they can't sue you, as they have no rights to do so, they smashed your property, so you can make a retaliating attack. Hmm

So my DSi was screwing up, so I asked my dad to give it in to Nintendo.

They so kindly took out the SD card, sure. But did they take out the Goddamn game card!?!?? FUCK NO.

I picture in my head angry Reggie smashing your flashcart with a huge hammer.

You know, you could use a flashcart or PSP CFW without pirating. It's incredibly easy to dump your own DS games and even easier to dump PSP games. I love being able to carry around my whole collection without having to lug around a bunch of small ds carts or UMDs.

While they may not be allowed to destroy the DS2, they could very well sue him for violation of the DMCA. Now you tell me what's worse. In my opinion, destroying the DS2 is the easy way out for both of them.

@Rockym That's still considered illegal according to the DMCA (as pointed out earlier).

True, but I'm not gonna buy all these games.

Thats why when mine breaks i dont send it to Nintendo or any other place to get it fixed as i do the job myself. I got other DS's here that i used for spare parts or i buy the part i need. Screw Nintendo on fixing your console they are as bad as M$ too on waiting times.

I don't think nintendo can legally destroy ur cart. the only thing they can really do is send the unit back to u unfixed.

i don't think he can legally own a flash kit that contains part of a pirated rom image in the boot loader. pretty sure nintendo can do whatever they want with it because he can't legally ask for it back and admitting he shipped it with the dsi is just ignorant.

    Some temporary storage

    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
