Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobileWell if the law doesn't matter then I'm not quite sure how taking 1.5million dollars of someone's money for the sake of revenge is morally acceptable.
If you love lightgun games so much, why haven't you bought the ones on Wii?
They're not HD, duh!
And as a result of me downloading the song Rhythm Emotion, I bought Ouendan and consequently Ouendan 2 and introduced me to Japanese music. By watching Azumanga Daioh online, I now own that series on DVD, plus subsequently Maburaho, Gantz, Love Hina, Pani Poni Dash, Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex+2nd Gig, Cowboy Bebop. By downloading Spirited Away, I now own it, and a dozen other Studio Ghibli films and plan on getting the rest.
It's not so damned linear, nor is it "oh it's illegal, therefore it's wrong." Morality and legality are different things. It's also pretty well impossible to realistically enforce either. Oddly enough, I and I doubt Foolz are saying he shouldn't get any punishment whatsoever. He uploaded one game, that's it. That is it. That is not enough to put a man into debt for the entirety of his life. Sentencing must be proportionate; this is not.

Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobileNo, but that is what you were implying you would like to do if a similar injustice was perpertrated against yourself.
Though if was it a crime that Nintendo had to prosecute? It didn't say in the article. If it was thenI hope Nintendo weren't stupid enough to think that this will deter anyone and affect anyone except the guy the prosecuted. Revenge would be a much smarter motive.
But anyway I thought your problem with this case was because of moral matters and not legalities.
And I should really go to bed!
Hmm, methinks there is more to it. How many action games do you own for instance?
Owning 1 lightgun game when you say you love them? You can count the number of good ones on one hand and you could own them all very easily and very cheaply.
When Overkill is $13 on amazon and people still don't buy it, something's up.
Yeah, Overkill sucks.
Yet you won't be stopping anyone from getting it for free (hell, the guy might be fined 1.5million, but he's still free to upload or download more games!). Due to the nature of the medium it all so means you're not really going to be able to stop it or have any affect on pirates as a whole, only a small handful individuals.
