Reminds me of... Some recent game? Monster Hunter World? or something? Game; We'll use this well known "Denuvo" anti-piracy for our game, it's so powerful it even lags the game! That must mean it's good, right?! Hackers: (Crack the game.... BEFORE IT EVEN COMES OUT, because someone got ahold of a review copy and went "Wait, Denuvo? oh, HAH", Presses practically 2 buttons to crack it, removes it, AND makes the game run faster.)

@@creampop8553 There's a reason consoles stopped calling themselves unhackable. You don't see the PS4, with it's BSD+Webkit lookin' ass claiming it's unhackable. You don't see the Xbox, with it's "everyone can use developer mode" lookin' ass claiming it's unhackable. The Switch tried really hard, and got so very far -- there are no 100% software-based exploits. Even exploits that look software-based, like Deja Vu, have hardware-vulnerability components (bootrom doesn't initialize vectors, DMA controllers are not locked when going into deep sleep mode, etc.) It's Nvidia's fault, and the newer line of Switches, (with better battery life, or the Switch Lite,) will never be hackable to the same degree as the swiss-cheese launch model. The Horizon team did a great job securing the Secure Monitor, the kernel, and their sysmodules, and they've still gotta deal with people reverse-engineering and re-implementing their OS.

I'm just saying that there is no way you can say that if some one pirated a game, that means they were willing to pay for it. Contrary to popular belief... Most people that want to pay for a game usually pay for it, while people that don't want to pay for the games... Don't do it. Yes of course there is a middle ground where people would buy the games, but choose the more practical way of doing it with piracy. But its impossible to tell how big this group of people is. In truth there is a lot of people that bought a DS just because they knew about the R4 and how easy it was, but wouldn't bother with the console otherwise. The same for a lot of psp owners.

"costing Nintendo $269M in lost sales." No. It didn't. Only a percentage of pirate downloaders would have wanted to purchase it legitimately, lowering that number. Factor bot downloads on top of that, and you've got a much lower number.

People often download pirate games that they can't afford like me, or sometimes they download it to try the game and some people actually buy the games when they like it a lot instead of keeping the pirated one; or people just download them because they aren't available in their country (like here in Chile for example, we barely get games)

I'm no mind reader so I can't say if it was written that way intentionally or not, but you cannot say with certainty that a pirated copy is a lost sale, and to report as such is an inaccuracy. Several reports have debunked this theory, often leading to the conclusion that video game piracy may in fact help sales rather than hinder them, and it is much more accurate to say that playing a pirated copy of a video game is an attempt to assess the game and is no more or less destructive to sales than the act of playing a demo version of said game.

@@Pellbort I mean, lost sales to piracy could potentially be a thing, if there were some barrier to buying games in the first place. Back in the DS era, they were physical carts -- nowadays, the only barrier to buying a game is money. Counting piracy as a lost sale is preposterous.

They'd have to choose between paying for games or my school, so Sony didn't lose any money, because there would be no money anyway.
