So what? Nintendo expects us to wait for their lazy asses to release older games?

Not only that. In South America, it is impossible to legally purchase digital Nintendo games. The only options are: overpriced physical copies (like, 2 or 3 times the original value), or create a US account (so, lying in the personal data) and buy prepaid cards online (also severely overpriced).

For some people, piracy is the only option.

They’ve released like 1% of the NES library on Switch and it’s been years.
