I don't pretend to understand the mechanics of console-based fan translations, but people ofen use ownership of a game as moral justification for having a downloaded copy.

Oh ok. I do that also with DS games, just never with imports. My moral justification for imports is that if they wanted me to purchase it, they would release it in my region and in my language.

In point of fact I actually agree with you, but there are cases where games are never very large and you also want to support the developer with your money - I am embarrassed to admit to the sentimentality in myself, but that's what I did with Mother 3.

I can't justify that for two reasons.

1. It causes you to purchase a game that is not suited towards you, and you're asked to pay more in import fees, etc. for the right to play that game you can't even understand.

2. Supporting the developers would go against my stance to not support publishers that do not support releasing their game in my region. I figure more of the money is going to the publisher, so the good of screwing the publisher outweighs the bad of not supporting the developer.
