You don't want to sell your digital only item or maintain it's platform anymore? Fine, now everyone can have it. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Pixel_Jock_17@piefed.ca 14 points 1 week ago (1 child) Its a great point and something I was talking to people on other forums. At this point for many many games, people whobare pirating and emulating games are really preserving them. Like there's a tons of games where I have no "legal" way to acquire and play without having to either get really really lucky at various second hand markets and stuff or just emulate. So what's the issue? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] piccolo@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago Obviously if your playing old games you arent spending $80 on new games. permalink fedilink source parent
