Hello, do you think its alright to get skyward sword hd if I already have the Wii version? I could never finish it because of the motion controls.
Do you think its alright to download it then?

I guess so, I don't know if you mean ethically. I'm not a part of the switch scene. I pirate on every other system, but I never play any games except for dkc returns and nsmb. I just don't care about them, so I guess you could say I'm a game "collector." :P

btw, in context (since I'm not pirating on the switch), I bought several games like dkc returns, nsmb u/deluxe, the wonderful 101, 3d world, etc. on both the wii u and the switch. I bought them digitally on both, so the only two games I mentioned are on the wii u via either the vwii or injects (have both). I've spent so much time with the wii u, and half the games I play I actually own. I even have cbhc installed when I play no pirated wii u titles, just the injects.

You can "test" the game on your system and if you see improvements and/or like the new control scheme, why not? you can buy it. Since everything else is the same (story, combat.. Etc) .

According to DF's Review, it is quite the overhaul.
They implemented more QoL improvements than one'd think.

Also consider this:
If you care for other Zelda games to "make the jump", it'd be best to buy it to show support.

I f.e. got PS5:Strikers, despite disliking PS5R, so maaaybe Atlus'll do them fans a fav and SwitchErUp*.

*Port that dang thing

What Memoir said, yeah. The only one who's gonna stop you in the end is yourself, Nintendo isn't gonna be affected, whether you buy it or not, because they've already made the most of the sales during the first week of release. Everything else is a bonus.

When a company consistently tries to betray its costumers, piracy becomes a moral obligation.
The developers of videogames are similar to street musicians. You can listen to their music without paying them. But you can also support them. It is not actual piracy like robbing ships by using force.

for N you don't «buy» the game you get a license to run the unmodified software on the exact unmodified console you pay for. That's why the use of ROMs on Emulators even if you have the original cartridge is not as «legal» at the big N eyes, and they charge you 60 bucks for a emulator and a ROM

If you want to get it, go for it but if you’re able to get it for free with your switch, I would get it for free. This way if you realize you don’t really want the game you could delete it. I personally didn’t like the game on the Wii and never finished it.

    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.

    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Toxic pills are best
