Wrong! "So in other words, no one is allowed to defend themselves from theft" is a what some may call a "strawman". If a country launches a missile into another country, that doesn't give the victim country the moral right to launch a nuke in retaliation. Analogously, I don't believe anybody should ever have their life ruined over a petty crime. It's insanity that this even need to explained. It is not justice for Nintendo to taking 20% of Gary Bowser's paycheck for the rest of his days, after having sent him to jail: This is a cruel punishment intended to serve as an example for others not to replicate his behavior, not "justice" for the victim.

Piracy (or any petty crime) should not recieve a near-death sentence. Why is this such a controversial statement? $1mil to the average person is 20y worth of the average American's paycheck.

In the USA, a bad injury or sickness if you go to the wrong hospital out of your network can be 20 years worth of American paychecks.  I fully support Nintendo to do what they wish with their product.  If you don't like it, don't download their games.

Lol i need to just stop reading responses here...why on earth are you using America's outrageously expensive medical system as an example to defend Nintendo's lawsuit frenzy as of recent????
