Piracy is justified because I already own those games, and they’re not backwards compatible. I’m not going to pay for the same game multiple times.

You were right in your first comment, but this is plainly false. Not pirating, mind, but making copies of what you already own is legal, at least in US and most of Europe.

I do whatever I want regardless. That you go out of your way to defend the multi-billion company from copyright theft is pointless, when nowadays agents like Meta have been reported stealing millions of copyrighted materials and nothing happened.

Thinking that pirating a $20 game from Nintendo is fucking someone over is a wild take. Stop treating international giga corporations like people

The devs already got paid. The money spent buying this game just goes to the higher ups who spent 0 time actually working on the game.

piracy is always justified

Probably not from indie developers

Even from indie devs. Many have said that if you don’t have the money to buy their game to get it and play it anyway. More eyes on it and word of mouth and whatnot.
