I don't think this is as prolific as it may seem, at least with the DS. I have about 30 games for my DS, and my friend, who is very poor, has at least 15 for his. This friend downloads hundreds of illegal ROMs, but not DS games or any system from this or last gen.
Every one of my close friends has a DS, with at least 4-5 games. Of course, Me and my friends are only anecdotal evidence, but I would never have heard of the R4 if it weren't for a few internet stories.
