never stolen from, however, ive let people borrow games enough times to learn my lesson about letting other people use my stuff. had a friend once who borrowed a Pokemon game from me. when he returned it the master ball was used, all the post game events i was waiting to play were finished, and several of my main team pokemon had their movesets changed. he wasnt even trying to be a jerk when he did it, he was fully conscious of all his actions.

Never saw him after he moved away.

Not sure, not that I can remember. But I have lost a few of my old NES games due to that people borrowed them way back and you didnt really care much about them and we all forgot about it...

A funny thing though when I started collecting NES games some 6 years ago I started talking with friends via facebook if they wanted to sell me their old games.. and I bought a collection of about 50 games and the funny thing is when I get home and unpack it all there are two games that are mine hah and I never lend him any games in the past:P

Norway was and is just really expensive.  A Link to the past was almost $100. The most expensive game i bought on SNES was $115

Not directly, but a lot of the loaned games haven't really returned home.

Should put a lawsuit...

That is a reason that unless for best friend or family my basic rule is I loan one and borrow one (basically reversible trade) instead of pure loan.

And he could have borrowed from a friend who borrowed from you, or bought from that guy or stollen =p

My brother sold my copy of Twisted Metal Black to a friend for like $5, and some others that I didn't care much for. Didn't trust him with my games anymore, there is a reason we don't share accounts or consoles anymore.

i’m pretty sure my cousin stole tloz: the wind waker from me.

it’s never been confirmed, but i’m pretty sure he did.

i knew him well enough to know he wouldnt do that. he was the type to rarely see the true value in a game. 90% of the time he would get his fill from using cheat codes or cheating devices to get the best stats, weapons, whatever each game had to offer, refusing to put any actual effort into anything. in games such as Minecraft or Terraria, he would often buy the game months after the rest of our friend group had and then just demand we give him a bunch of hand-me-down equipment instead of actually playing the game he had just spent money on. his motto was simple- "why would you want to work for it when you can just get it the easy way." of course he wasnt going to delete my save file, that would mean he would have to actually work to get to the point in the game i was at.
