Having a good service that’s easily accessible and re-releasing games from older consoles (many of which people have been rallying for) = less of an incentive to pirate them. Obv it will still exist, but it’d be in less of a demand. I almost never pirate PC games since the vast majority of the ones I’m interested in are readily accessible, unless it’s from a shitty AAA company like EA.
I haven’t pirated any of these gams
And it’s a little bit off topic
But damn I would so buy Mario party or Mario tennis or even arms if it wasn’t $60
Like I think the games are cute
But I’d rather buy 3 indie games with way more worth in play time then a $60 tennis simulator that I will drop in a week or a party game that I will only use on the rare occasion I’m hanging out with friends
I’m actually kind of happy that Nintendo is shutting down the Wii U and 3ds eShop because now it feels more ethical to pirate all the small $60 games I wanted to play
Hell id gladly spend $30 on many of these games
Tl;Dr these games are not worth $60 and I’m a little salty about it

Wait, how does that reduce piracy?

Ever heard of a small indie company called Valve?
