Seems our hobby may be getting a little more risky. The hits are getting closer to home. :'(

I wouldn't be surprised. An old family friend came by and asked me about a DS device that plays copies. Granted he didn't know the name but he was very certain that it requires just a micro SD card and that's it and asked me to help him order one.20%? Please. We're definitely in the tiny minority, like 10% or so. Not every casual who plays a DS feels safe buying weird items like this from China or wherever, especially when even to some of the more techie initiated they are rather confusing.
Like Liksang did?What's the use of trying to close these factories down. They'll have another one up and running in a few days.

I personally think it's probably 5% or less, it'd be nice to hear the real numbers though. Just think of all the Mums and little girls who wouldn't even bother with flash carts.
Most people with flash carts are either geekish people or ones that heard about it from the geeks. You'd be surprised how many people don't even know how to download stuff off the internets, let alone find NDS roms. (yeah I'm a bit of a geek I guess, I like my technology)
If nintendo really wanted to try and stop pirates they could introduce some sort of 'try before you buy' system that would let you try out games for a number of hours(minutes?) for free so people would get an idea if they want it or not. Soo many games suck on DS it's not worth taking the risk of buying one unless you've played it or know heaps about it.
Agree, game prices are far too high here in Oz.Just drop your prices and you will see that people might just buy your software for the glossy booklet and case that comes with your software.
YUUUUUUUUUUA! have to be kidding me.20%? 10%? You've gotta be fucking kidding me. Not even 1%.
