Whenever people ask why anyone makes open source software for free, I’m going to use this as a metaphor.

Dang, a whole dollar? I would sell origami tanks for 25¢ each, didn’t realize people would pay more than that.

I thought so too. I remember looking for alternatives for when it would be removed completely.

That’s you assuming all things are equal.

I’m sure that copy of mother 3 is bootleg, right?

I had a similar experience. Never played the Hoenn games, but I have copies of both FireRed and LeafGreen.

The worst part is, she probably got very little for those Pokemon games that are now worth $100+ a piece.

Low key actually worth a small fortune. This is a great selection.

Idk, the piracy community is huge here. Of all communities I’ve looked at, it’s by far the most active.

As someone very uninformed about Brave, what is unethical about it?

When I was about ten years old, I bought the game Warrior Kings while visiting my grandparents using my birthday money. When I got home, I tried to install it on our computer, only to discover that the game wouldn’t install because of some DRM thing. Years later, I discovered what really happened was that the copy I bought was apparently not an original disc, but as a kid I had no way to know. I spent hours trying to install it, attempting many times over the next month. The pictures on the box looked so dang cool, but I never did get to play it.
