i mean it’s not your refusal to play pokémon schmirtle & thromble that will plunge nintendo to obscurity

at that point, if the game interests you, may as well pirate it

I'm waiting for Pokémon SilverSchmirtle, myself.

Sounds like an argument for pirating if you feel like it, regardless of everything else. Can’t say I agree with this one even if there are good reasons to pirate in plenty of cases.

It's because of upstanding pirates like yourself that the rest of us can plunder at whim. Thank you for your ~~service~~ ratio. 🙇🏼‍♂️🏴‍☠️
