>>29198958
I paid for both XY and ORAS.

I'm not making that mistake again.

>>29198958
Yes

>>29198958
I'm going to buy Sun as a cartridge to have and pirate Moon later if I like it, or perhaps a modded version that increases difficulty if need be.

>>29198958
Yes

Most of /vp/ are underage without a job and mommy got tired of buying their games a long time ago. So the edgy children think they're cool and brag that they pirated it, thinking it'll make them superior to those with jobs and can actually shill out a few dollars.
Pic unrelated

I still feel ripped off from XY

>>29198982
>>29199050
XY wasn't a mistake. I'll concede ORAS was and I'm sure everyone else will, but XY wasn't a waste.

>>29198958
yes, where's the problem?

>>29198982
basically this

I also promised myself i'd never buy another 3DS game again, since it's essentially running on 2002 hardware with terrible resolution. If they ever do a SM rerelease on NX i'll pay for it.

>>29198958
I will pirate moon, and buy soon when i can afford 40 dollars, or 1500 pesos for a cartridge.

maybe you should stop playing these games then

Who gives a fuck if people pirate? It will still sell a guaranteed 10million+ with only 0.5% of that being pirates. Also TPC makes the majority of its profit from merchandise. Last year they reported a 2.1Bil net revenue despite not even releasing a main pokemon title, up from 1.5Bil in 2014. This year it's almost guaranteed they will make a shit ton more considering all the 20th anniversary merchandise.

They should have thought of that BEFORE they decided not to release the game in Europe the same day as everyone else...

>>29199119
hes right

>>29198958

I'm preordering both games for others and pirating it for myself.

>>29198958

Because if they moved NAs release date a week back too then they'd be the same date as EU, then the punishment wouldn't even be a punishment by that point.

Also we'd be back to "JP gets the game first kek"

Nintendo got out of Brazilian market of a sudden, and it was that day when I stopped caring about buying shit

>>29198958
Of course they are. I pirated Pokémon from Gen 2 to Gen 5 shamelessly. Only started to buy them when I was old enough and making good money. I had my reasons:

>I was too young to make my own money
>my parents weren't exactly well off and I couldn't stand asking them for shit unrelated to school
>buying games locally costs an arm and a leg here

Many have similar circumstances. Not that it justifies it or anything, but they have their reasons.

The piratefags I can't stand are the ones who gloat about it as if it makes them better than those of us who buy the games.

Buying Sun. Pirating Moon as soon as the CIA is available, which I plan to use as my main game.

>>29199232
You would have pirated it regardless, that's just your scapegoat.

>>29199240
Tem brasileiro nessa board ?

>>29198958
You. Shoudnt care or worry. The sells will be huge like always without loses

I'd understand if you were pissed that people were pirating dragonquest or something, but pokemon? Nigga they rich as fuck.

>>29198958
They're gonna make millions of dollars anyway. It doesn't matter if a portion of the fanbase pirates the games.

>>29198958
Yes. We always have to. I do have OR and Y, but I also have them installed, a total of 6 games, so I don't need to go to the save editor and get the old save. Also 3 of these 4 installed games are romhacks. So if a guy with CFW on his 3DS doesn't want to "hack" SM he will do it anyway to get a romhack.

Im def going to do it since all you faggots pirated dragon quest, the series that needed the sales. Payback's a bitch.

>>29198958
I'll give you the real explanation, OP. 90% of /vp/ is underage, and mommy won't give them any money to buy games. But they're autistic enough to circumvent this problem by staying in their bedrooms and hacking their Nintendos rather than making money by doing their chores and mowing lawns.

I bought both XY and ORAS, and although XY was okay, ORAS sucked dick and killed my last drop of passion for the games. Besides, Nintendo fucked off of my country so I have no reason to support them anymore (and even if I wanted, prices for cartridges fucking skyrockted and I'm not falling for the digital meme). So yeah, there's 0% chance I'd be buying this game even if I couldn't pirate, so they're not losing on anything.

>>29198958
>Are people really going to pirate Sun and Moon?
Yes, I am and if it's good I'll buy it.
But knowing gamefreak it'll be a disappointing piece of shit.

>>29199361
I already bought and played DQVII years ago because I'm not an EOP

>>29199165
Well they finally made a bi pedal fire starter for one, everyone's been wanting that.

I'm not waiting a week to play the game, I'll pirate Moon and buy Sun.

Only if it leaks early as a .cia. I want to be able to play it as soon as possible, and I can transfer my save from the pirated version to the cartridge if need be.

Otherwise? No, I have a decent job and expendable income and I like to collect games. If you have the money to buy a game, buy it. Don't be that guy.

A game to me is worth $1 every hour I play, if I can get more than 40 hours of gameplay from SM I will be happy with my purchase

>>29198958
I bought a X cartridge, a digital Y, the steelbook for OR (and my roommate's AS) and I preordered sun and moon.

I always buy pokemon games except for the fifth gen because I felt terrible for actually paying for what shit gen 4 was but I since bought a second hand black2.

that being said, don't expect me to pay for lesser franchises.

>>29199476

You people are full of shit. It's seriously hilarious.

>>29199065
Xy is shit. They could just fucking make another standalone wifi battle game instead of killing real contents in xy just to make room for updates on wifi battle.

And oras is shit as well.

Big corporates just doing whatever they want because they got the money and name.

How's it feel to have Masuda's dick so deep into your ass that whoever pulled it out would be crowned King of Britain, OP?

I'm baffled how there's Gamefreak drones to this day. Pokemon be a 100 times better franchise if it were at the hands of good developers, look at the Mystery Dungeon games for example. I played Super Mystery Dungeon not long ago and I was amazed by the quality of it.

No piracy here because I like to show off the physical copies I have of things. It makes people jelly even if they like to pretend they aren't.

And my hacked 3DS? Homebrew and translation hacks only. If the game ever localizes I buy the real one to encourage more translations, but some older games like Moon Crystal are never getting translations so those are guilt free.

They fooled me twice with XY and ORAS

If you're that pissed why play at all? I hear there's other monster games out there like monster Hunter, Yokai Watch, and even Dragon Quest Monsters. Go buy those.

Yes I'm going to pirate it, and I don't know what fans gamefreak has been listening but definitely not me because I asked for a difficulty increase.

>>29199864
Good thing Gamefreak has a fuckton of drones that will excuse anything they do and ask for more to make-up for all the pirates.

>>29199944
Don't forget where you are, I don't think there's a lot of people here who worked hard for their money.

>>29199975
There's people here saying that they are gonna buy both versions, I'm not worried. Who cares if they made it from selling lemonade, autismbucks, whoring themselves or asked mommy and daddy to get them the game, they'll find a way to keep droning on.

I will buy them, because I'm not a cheap jew. If their games do not meet your personal standards you are of course free not to buy them, after all that's how the market works. If you pirate, you're just admitting that you're a cheap fuck, since obviously they entertain you (otherwise you wouldn't bother).

Why do I need to justify my actions through some subjective moral code?

IDon't blame the fans when it's the higher ups. The Japanese are known to be resitstant to change. They still use 90's and even 80's and 70's tech regularly and cash on hand is the way business is done- no credit cards and certainly not Apple Pay. The new guard is trying to come in at last in Nintendo but there's still a lot of old guys so change has to come slowly so it can come at all. It's just the Japanese way. That's all.

>>29198958
I'm pirating the games because I don't have a job and I'm a big failure overall. At least I'm not making anyone else lose money (other than my parents) since they would have never gotten any money from me in the first place.

You know what people usually do in that situation? Not be a dipshit and get the game day 1. Wait for fan response, read reviews, decide how you feel and then buy it/don't.

If you don't like the series enough to want to play it blind day 1, you can wait to play it.

>>29200368

Well I'll be pirating both. Not as soon they come out though, that'd be pointless, I'll Nuzocke Sun first and then play a difficulty hack of Moon. Never want to be as disappointed playing the regular game normally again like I was for XY ORAS.

Well Im getting at least one digitally the day of since it usually comes out 9 PM PST so I don't have to wait for midnight physical release. I preordered the dual steelbook case with 200 pokeballs or whatever as well so I'll get that later in the day when I'm out for lunch.

To my great shame I usually buy both digital and physical for both since I have 2 3ds

>>29200500
I'm making fun at the shills. You're fine if you're just buying it like a normalfag who doesn't care/wants to support, but this thread has reached hilarious levels of cocksucking and autism and I can't help but laugh at them.

I have 8 cartridges from before I could pirate, it's not that bad, but I'm not buying stuff I can get for free now

>>29200666
If you have CFW you can update to 11.1, but make a backup of your NAND to be safe

>>29200666
a9lh will always be safe to update

>>29200666
Yes. But you gotta get a new homebrew launcher cia or payload, and an updated ntr if you use it. Everything else works just as intended.

>>29200666
Yes.
Afaik 11.1 only fucks up people who were still using browserhax.

>>29200408
I am. It's funny to read all these children try and force shitty excuses to make themselves feel better for being cheap.

"B-but I don't know if it's good yet-"
Wait a few days for fan response. It's not hard.

"Buh but it's not exactly the fantasy perfect dream game I built it up to be in my head"
So don't play it. And for fuck sake, stop doing that, you probably refunded No Mans Sky you infant. Learn from your shitups.

"Buh but I didn't like the last games-"
Return them. You aren't entitled to free products when you don't like them. You're like those shitty layered haircut moms who demands her already-eaten salad for free because it had too much dressing.

It's 40 freakin dollars, you giant babies. Fork it over or don't. And if you're going to steal, don't make an ass of yourself and act like you're some super deserving vigilante. Gamers are such entitled assholes.

You gotta update NTR (and HBL but why would you even use it in CFW). Tbh I'm still at 11.0, the more recent versions of Luma patch online play and suppresses the update nag automatically, so unless we use eShop/NNID shit, it's like nothing happened. I didn't even know when they blocked online play in it, Luma doesn't give a shit.

>>29200770
My guess is to customize their trainer

>>29200770
I like being able to customize characters, especially females, however I want. But not this game because the main female character is a little girl with no tits and I have no interest in customizing males, so the customization of this game doesn't interest me.

It's not about money you dipshit, it's about playing the game asap. You're delusional if you think the game won't leak like at least a week before.

Should I avoid playing online though?

So by this you mean you'll wait a few days and see general response and reaction to it, right? Or do you want it so badly and urgently you need it day 1? Surely someone so dismissive of the series could stand to wait to see the quality first.

I always go physical because I don't like having games tied down to one system and risking that game being lost forever if the system were to brick or get heavily damaged. That and collection purposes.

>>29200957
Read the post again then. It's pretty obvious.

>>29201028
nope. They only way you can get banned online is a couple of games that check your savedata for anomalies so just avoid too much cheating.

>>29198958
I live in North America and I'll have to wait until I get my physical copy delivered. So I'll probably pirate moon, since my physical copy will be Sun. I ordered them both so my gf will play Moon.

I still support the games I like even though I modded my 3ds.

>>29200985
Already pre-ordered both, console and special version.

Get on my level pleb.

i won't deny some people here will pirate it but i doubt most of the people that are saying they will actually do it

>>29201065
So if I play Alpha Sapphire or something online, and I don't use any cheats of some sort, I'll have full online functionality, and they won't be able to trace it back to me and remotely brick my system or get me banned?

>>29201028
Paying online is fine. Updating is also fine if you're on a9lh luma.

>>29201028
You can play online if your CFW (NEVER UPDATE THE NON-CUSTOM FIRMWARE) is 11.1. There's no drawbacks to this, but I think accessing the eShop makes things go a bit weird--I could be wrong, though. Ask >>>/vg/hbg for more.

>>29201028
.cias from online are safe because they are not unique to the console that purchased them. Every legit copy is the same.
Pirated cartridges are detectable though, because each has a unique header. This makes flashcarts far more unsafe.

>>29201093
No. I believe the only instance of people getting banned is using roms on a Gateway with public headers.

>>29201086
What the? Do you know how many pirated games I have right now on my 3ds, why wouldn't I pirate this one too.

>>29201101
yes you're wrong. There's absolutely no drawbacks with a9lh. No problem updating or accessing eshop AT ALL.

>>29201101
>but I think accessing the eShop makes things go a bit weird

Nah, nothing ever happened to anyone. The worst that can happen is having theme CIAs/some pirate DLCs deleted

Okay, fuck this.

Who here is pirating the demo?

>>29201164
Not quite. Accessing the eshop deletes all official themes you don't own.

>>29201084
I have preordered 2x moon, 1x sun, both with memecase, 2x special edition consoles. And I could easily pirate it but I won't because I'm not a pleb like you.

>>29201194
Why should I bother when I can pirate themes too?

>>29199236

Seriously. How does punishing players by releasing the game a week later teach stores to not leak shit early? Stores don't give a fuck about when it comes out, just that people pay for it.

>>29201392
Especially since odds are the leaks will be due to some factory worker making cartridges in China.

can you put CFW on 2DS?

Yup.

idk what those are I just use nasa.

>still just gonna use a cia if someone releases it

idk I've opened the eshop through homebrew before with no trouble, but if I use it to put games on the main menu where the cias are I feel like that would be sketchy now that people are saying it could mess with them.

>>29201514
It's pretty much the same as the regular 3DSs.
So you're fine unless you have 11.0+ in which case you're fucked.

I am probably going to do the same and buy Sun and pirate Moon.

But really, I wanna pirate, more because: A, I'm poor, B, I can't really find games for 3DS that easily where I live and C, I wanna play ROM hacks and difficulty hacks on the go.

That being said, I just got a N3DS for the first time to play SM in Nov and I wanted to mod my console.

Out of the people who modded their consoles, do you guys use A9LH?
Did you mod it by yourself?
Is there anything to keep in mind if I attempt to mod it by myself for the first time?
Is 32GB of SD card enough for games?
Thanks!

Pretty sure most people are, since it's way easier to set up, it's faster and safer than other methods involving emuNAND.

>Did you mod it by yourself?

Well, yeah.

>Is there anything to keep in mind if I attempt to mod it by myself for the first time?

Read everything carefully. Don't skip any step unless the guide tells you specifically (due to you already having something, for example).

>Is 32GB of SD card enough for games?

More than enough; I bought a 32GB SD back in 2014 and I still have half of its total size free. Also, don't go over 64GB since the 3DS might have trouble with them.

>>29201762
You obviously care.

>>29198958
>Are people really going to pirate Sun and Moon?
Yes, absolutely.

>Explain.
Don't have to.

>>29198958
I haven't decided yet. I might wait to see if any postgame exists in this, how the shinies I'm interested in look, how much got actually removed, etc.

>>29202275
>how much got actually removed
What did he mean by this?

>>29198958

Yep.

ORAS were disappointments and XY could have been better.

If SM is actually good, after pirating one, I'll buy one down the road for my sibling.

>>29198958
I won't since I am too lazy to hack it, and I do have the money.

But I don't care if other people pirate. I also had no job i nthe past and had to pirate my games. When you grow up that is what makes you still be interested in games and you end up paying for them.

Buying Moon. Pirating Sun.

I'm going to buy it, because I don't like pirating games unless they're no longer being produced.

This might be somewhat less true for Gamfreak since Pokémon is a pretty safe series, but gamers being cheap has hurt the gaming industry in a palpable way.

Devs spend millions of dollars making a cutting edge piece of amazing tech for entitled gamers to say "eh it's worth $3 on steam". The price of AAA games has stayed the same for several generations now when dev cost has risen exponentially. Gamers want better graphics, higher framerates, bigger maps etc but refuse to pay more than they did 10 years ago.

So then you get shitty tactics like micro transactions, paid DLC, and 80 hr work weeks since publishers don't want to pay for extra development time. That leads to delays, day 1 patches, and cut corners leaving things broken. Followed by mass layoffs as companies desperately try to make their cash back.

So people can say "piracy doesn't really effect anything" but let's be honest, that money has to come from somewhere. Something's gotta give. And gamers feel the shit end of it all the time.

>>29199403
>some smelly BR or Greek gets to play the game without paying for it

Gee, I wonder why your country's economy is in the shit, mate.

>>29203360
Personally I'm downloading it, just because it's cheaper; here the physical copy doubles the cost of the digital version. I just hope it doesn't have any file-corrupting day one erros like XY's digital release did

Let me know when that actually happens to GF.
But it won't, because for every guy who pirates it there's five others who are buying both versions.
Call it a subsidy, if you will.

>tfw want to buy it but I'm out of cash so I'll just pirate it and pretend I bought it digitally

Couldn't have said it better myself.

>implying the physicality of the object is what makes it immoral
My stealing a bag of Doritos isn't immoral because I took something physical so no one else can get it (because it's just as easy for someone to get a bag regardless of whether or not I take one), it's immoral because I took something without paying for it.

Right? It's so entitled. QQ why isn't every Pokemon designed just for me

It's just funny that they don't realize their own cheapness is fueling the shit they hate. It's like the mobile market. If everyone is too cheap to pay you get shittier more manipulative products.

Wow I didn't know Donald Trump played Pokémon.

"Some other guy is paying for his product- he's practically paying for mine too!"

Usually people that pirate have no intention of buying it in the first place. It's not a lost sale. Most people don't even the 3DS can be cracked and everybody on /vp/ could pirate and they'd probably not see a dent in sales.

I pirate and play a game about 2 hours. If I enjoy it, I go out and buy it. If I don't I just stop playing.

Piracy usually isn't for games you are absolutely sure you'd love, unless yer a gigantic ass waffle, but for those bitch please tier ones you don't want to waste money on and find out they're shit.

well said

>>29204472
But the people desperately browsing VP for leaks who urgently need Pokemon day 1 are probably people who would buy the game if it was absolutely impossible to pirate, right? Just by virtue of being on this board posters here are more committed than your average consumer.

>>29204720
People are all over announcements and leaks because they want to be inforned about the game and aren't sure of their purchase. People who have made up their mind on day one purchases don't care to know about the content they will experience because they know they will experience it.

not going to defend piracy but i'm a scumbag piece of shit and am going to do it

>>29205285
amen

Maybe if Devs created games that were worth actually buying instead of bloating their shit with 100GBs of uncompress audio, day one patch that's 60+GBs, Day one DLC that's $30+, Season Passes that are another $30+ that most of the time come with shit content, and then to top it all off devs constantly say "fuck you, its all your fault"

None of this nickle and diming shit and then proceeding to call the very people who support them, dumbasses and irrevelant, isn't tolerated ANYWHERE else in any industry, but somehow it's okay for video games to do that.

fuck that, come out with a quality product and I'll spend money on it, simple as that.

Minimum wage in Mexico is 3600 pesos more or less at month, a Pokémon Game cost 900 pesos... A medium class family month income is 8-10,000 pesos.
Im gonna buy it, but in this shitty 3rd world country is a little sacriffice, so I dont blame people pirating it.
