I have no pirated software sir, only Ronaldinho soccer, GTA: Tropa de elite and Campeonato brasileiro 2017.
Will want some? ah ok. Just to warn, if your PS2 is using the matrix, the Ronaldinho might hang sometimes.

>>389505779
Just fines I think. They rarely prosecute actual pirates, just the distributors.
