As a kind of follow up on http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=33230 I'd be interested to know if piracy made you buy more or less games.
I'm pretty sure that piracy has made me buy more games than I would have bought otherwise. I own 17 DS games now, with another one on the way and several more purchases already planned. I bought most of these games because I pirated them and liked them. I would never have ordered Ouendan, Phoenix Wright or Miss Spider's Sunny Patch Friends (
) without playing the Rom first. I don't like buying games without knowing if I like them or not beforehand. Ideally all games would be free and I'd pay for them if I want to. Obviously many people aren't that open about giving money voluntarily so this model probably wouldn't work that well since some people would take advantage of not having to pay for anything. So how is the ratio of good people to bad people in this community?
