[Question] DS or PSP for ME?

Does anyone EVER follow the advice people give them in these threads, because every time I see one, people end up making up their own minds in the end. These tend not to help with indecision.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Not any time soon over here. If you wait, I don't doubt that you'll again become indecisive and either bump or remake the thread, though. If you're gonna buy the Lite, just pick it up. It's not that pricey, and it can sit there for a bit if you end up being busy.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Is that a justification for piracy outside of "I'm a cheap shit"? Because seriously Acer.

I don't have a problem with it, but let's not sugar coat what it actually is, dude.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

The fact that she's well known to be an idiot doesn't change the fact that your massive generalization of don't-support-the-thing-at-all as a solution to fix the shovelware issue is both retarded and a convenient excuse to make yourself look like you're taking a stance against the issue instead of just trying to save yourself a few bucks.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Just tell me how punishing the developers of the quality titles sends the message that you want more of that and less of the crap, because I don't see it.

How ya doing, buddy?

Since when were we discussing used sales instead of flat out piracy? Because I missed the part where we jumped from one sinking ship to the other.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Flat out stealing quality works isn't exactly a good way of encouraging their creation, y'know. Voting with your wallet and all that. Why is this a difficult concept to grasp?

Look. I understand the desire to want something for free. All I ask is that you don't pretend you're fucking Robin Hood about it. You're stealing video games for your own personal use, for fuck's sake.

FELIPE NO

Used games don't go into that since they've already been put into the count by the person who originally purchased it who more likely than not wasn't you. You fart in their general direction, blow a kiss, or erect a statue made of sweet corn in their honor it'll mean the same jack shit to them that buying a used game or not buying a used game at all in terms of giving them a pat on the back for their good efforts.

See, I think you're missing the point I'm making. You can only support these guys when you buy a new game that counts as a sale where the publishers and developers then get money. If I know I'm going to like a game on the DS or have played a DS game on the Cyclo that I enjoyed and full well know it is still available for purchase NEW AND UNUSED and that I can say hay Capcom or hay Nintendo or hay Sega or hay god forbid EA with them actually receiving my of cash I'd certainly then purchase said game and then fling it into the pile.

You've still yet to show how I'm punishing developers for making good games.

For fuck's sake Acer, stop backpeddling and trying to change the direction of the argument away from the direct piracy topic. When you directly bring up the Cyclo, that's kinda the point being discussed. Why you're harping on used sales when I've repeatedly stated that's NOT WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT IN THE LEAST is starting to make me wonder if Lix has jacked your account sometime in the last two days in a poor attempt at trolling.

Also, both Contra and Bangai-O are available new from online retailers like Amazon, and a majority of titles this dumb bitch will want to play are still available as such. You're suggesting this woman immediately buy a flash card and start stealing whatever the fuck she wants to save a few bucks. Be it widely available or not.

You've also suggested that I was correct in my assumption that your stance is "don't-support-it-at-all" to fight what you think is a stagnating library.

So, taking those two points together, it seems relatively logical that you're suggesting that none of the software deserves support, regardless of if it's considered quality or not.

The suggestion that quality software deserves to be stolen instead of purchased just because you're thinking the entire platform has a crap library is indeed punishing them for their effort. Rocket science?

But you've backpedalled pretty hard with "lol I would have bought it if I liked it; USED GAMES ETC" so even I'm having trouble understanding what you're trying to say at this point. All I'm saying is the pirate-holier-than-thou attitude is bullshit and you know it.

I can't tell if this is a 0/10 or a 10/10 troll, Acer. But it's one or the other.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

No. I just have a problem with people who think they're doing it for reasons outside of "I'm cheap". No one's fighting the man. Like I said earlier, no one here is Robin Hood. The earlier statements last page certainly made it seem like that's how some people viewed themselves. This's a site that's got a lot of piracy ties. Would I be here if I cared about that? There were some bullshit excuses made earlier, and now they're being corrected, so.

After finally getting an explanation for it though, I finally see what Acer truly meant last page. Would have been nicer half an argument ago instead of diverting off into how much buying second hand blows but eh, what can you do. Shit happens.

Besides, I did explain the punishment statement, around thirty four times but I guess Acer just doesn't see it that way.

this is my way at getting back at them.

That's the sort of thing I meant, see. Hopefully no more posts about "YOU HAVE YET TO SAY ANYTHING" now.

Edit: That above sort of thing was the entire basis of my complaint and argument. That's what's horseshit. None of this other reasoning.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

STOP LOADING THOSE CATAPULTS WITH POOP ACER, YOU'RE SCARING THE REST OF THE CIVILIANS.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
