Stealing and Video Game piracy isn't the same thing so your analogue is incorrect.

By stealing you are actually taking something away, depriving someone of something they have. By Video Game piracy, you are taking a POTENTIAL sale away, so a more correct analogue would be to buy or make your own Ferrari kit car clone than to buy an actual Ferrari.

Ferrari has lost the potential sale and you have a /similar/ product.

Its not perfect, but its more correct than yours.

You're actually stealing, stealing profit from developers and publishers for working their asses off for months or even years to get a game done well. I find bootleg DS and PSP games all the time and it really gives me the creeps. These sellers make profits and publishers don't get to see a single Buck, Euro or Yen from it. Worst part of it as well... most people don't even know they're buying crap and think they've got an original game in hand.
