This sickens me more then I thought it would. Granted I'm not the one losing money these companies are but this just wrong. If you don't want to buy the game then rent it for a small fee and be done with it. Or find a friend that has bought it and borrow it. Don't steal it. I guess it bothers me more since I want certain games to do well when it comes to Nintendo so they see there is a market there and will relase more like it. However when you see things like this, and it's the games aimed at the "core players" one shouldn't be surprised to see that the focus is on the games for the "casual" market. They will either be bought or not. They won't be pirated like this, at leas to this degree. Those numbers for the PC games is just disgusting. The excuse that the game isn't avaliable can't be used anymore now that digital distribution is used a lot of PC games. Not that it was ever a valid excuse but it could at least be understood in a twisted way.
Makes me wonder if some developers miss cartridges. I would think technology has gotten to the point where one can stream the same type of data off a cart now that you can stream off a disc. If that is really the case I wonder if Nintendo would ever go back to carts. Size can not be an issue when you look at how big flash drives are now and the prices they are at. I don't really see the benefit to putting console games on disc anymore.
