I don't want to get caught by the ciber patrol
Play other JRPGs than Pokémon then like a normal person.
The problem seems more that he was selling and profiting off of it.
>>73098358999% chance unc was a pdf anyway
>>730983732So? He's not even modifying the game itself, he's modifying the save files. Imagine if other companies did this.>sorry anon, that document you wrote in microsoft word doesn't belong to you
>>730983589Absorutery dishonorabruHe should commit sudoku to restory his family's honor.
>"AHHHH SOMEONE GOT HECKIN' ARRESTED FOR EDITING A SAVE FILE">look inside>he was actually selling hacked games / hacked save dataas usual, /v/ has to twist the truth and make up fanfiction to get angry about
>>730983589You seem to miss the part where he is selling the modified data. No one gives a fuck what you modify so long as you aren't making a buck of it and going to tournaments with that shit.
Consequences will never be the same
>>730983589stop playing nintendo shit
>>730984952>he was actually selling hacked games / hacked save dataimagine being enough of a retard to think this should be illegal
>>730983589Don't sell hacked games with hacked saves, it's pretty simple
>>730983668>Play other JRPGs>like a normal personFor those that come after, am I right fellow normiechad? Such a good game, changed my entire life... no other piece of media compares, I quit my job and excommunicated my family to spread the word of this brand new genre of 'video game'... life has meaning again.
>>730984952Typical>>730985254It should be illegal but only because I want to gatekeep retards who can't even manage to edit their own saves
>>730984952>>730985254If he was selling pirated copies of the game with a hack applied, that would be bad.If he was selling a service of hacking games / save files, there should be no problem.
>just inje-ACK
>>730985454>If he was selling a service of hacking games / save files, there should be no problem.That's what he was doing, yeah.
Dunno about the US or other western countries but I'm all but certain you can get busted for this back in bongland too. R4 cards got banned at some point, at any rate. At least in Japan I can't get vanned for loli.
>>730984952>>730985454He was only selling save data and yes it is ILLEGAL in corpocucked Japan.>https://www.japaneselawtranslation.go.jp/en/laws/view/2803/enThey claim he violated the Unfair Competition Prevention Act by selling hacked save data because it supposedly interfered with Game Freak's business. By this logic, cosmetic mods are also illegal too because they interfere with the developer's business of selling skins/cosmetics.Never forget Nintendo tried to have used game sales OUTLAWED because they were pissed at people buying 2nd-hand and wanted everyone to pay full price. They didn't succeed thankfully, but never forget that Nips have greed that rivals the Jews.
I pray that Pokemon Champions auto sets every IV to 31 so we never have to fuck with this bullshit ever again
>>730984952>he was selling save datayou are defending this monumental waste of resources on prosecuting a modder. do you understand how retarded you sound?>b-but he was making m-moneythat's irrelevant
>>730986002IVs and EVs are inspired mechanics, and I'd never want them gone.If anything, I wish they put in more obscure mechanics that 90% of people won't engage with but 5% of players will be tortured by indefinitely.
>>730986305>obscure mechanics that 90% of people won't engage withthat's because they're hidden values moron. to casualfaggots anything they can't see doesn't exist
>>730985913wrong law retarded
>>730986305EVs are fine because they add actual strategy and customization to your mons. IVs are a dumb bullshit grind especially when you have to find shit with 0 speed or 0 atk.
>>730985913second hand selling is common in Japan, especially videogames
>>730983589>sellingGood, paid mods should be punishable by death
>>730986592Have they not implemented something like a Bottle Cap but for setting IV's to 0 yet?
>>730986290>it's okay to scam people's money for shit you don't own>BUT A PRIVATE COMPANY HAS TO SPEND MONEY HOW I TELL THEM TOgrow up
>>730986559If it's wrong post the right law "retarded"
>>730985321>E33 out of NOWHERELegends Z-A flopped in France.
>>730987434>police is a private companyhow many times were you dropped on your head as a kid
>>730985623For selling copies of pirated media, sure. For breaking a EULA by modifying software no.
>>730984952YOU WERE SELLING SAVE FILES FOR CHILDRENS VIDEO GAMES YOU SICK FUCK
>>730984952Crazy how much sympathy there is for people selling cheats.
>>730983589We have this in Denmark too. But it's weird to see how in Japan they crack down on game modding and stuff. I suppose in many cases their ulterior purpose is to protect company rights. In my country the focus is on End 2 End criminals, like Crime as a Service or people who view CP.It's pretty recent though. It seems that a lot of countries have been given the tools to start an "Online Police" and the implementation differs from country to country, but all have been given an "order" to do it. It coincides with all the Age Verification shit and censorship of social media. Makes you think.
>>730985623You won't get arrested for hacking in shiny dittos to pokemon games. We're not that fucked yet
If the software is on my machine, I can modify it however I please.>but the law-The law is incorrect.
>>730984952GATO SEXO
>>730983838yeah but it's an illegal business, you can't just sell stuff unreported
>>730992114it literally tells you that you can't modify the game in any way when you start it and you have to agree to it to start playingyou agreed to it, it's your problem>but i didn't agreethen you can't play the game
>>730993293I paid money, I received the files. Any agreement you try to shove in my face AFTER that is irrelevant and not binding.
>>730983838You don't have a right to redistribute video games though
Japan is another bitch of the usa so even if you get fooled by what appears to be a dominant exotic culture what truly matters in its behavior is that it mimicks the same kikery seen in goymerica. A conquered country of yellow slanted eyes hypocrites. I mean, look at the recent resident evil trailer, can you whore yourself out more than that to the globohomo international market? I don't think that's possible. Chinks are right to hate nips.
>>730991174third worlders flood this site man, thats why
>>730991174But let me guess, it was totally different when it was called the Game Genie.
>>730991174Just look at VAC ban threads. There are people defending cheating nonstop, like even people from west constantly arguing that cheating and hacking should be allowed etc.
>>730983589Go back home then
>>730991174The Internet should go back to being the Wild West.
>>730987305No because “but what if toddler accidentally make Pokemon weak”
>>730993293I always have someone else click "agree". I personally did not agree to anything.
looks like op never read the fed warning before a movie plays
>>730983589>selling pirated copies with hacked savesFirst of all fuck Nintendo but yeah you're going to get ass fucked in zipper land if you sell pirated shit wirelessly.
>>730983589This prooves again why I hate the mainline Pokémon games.In a good RPG, selling hacked characters with perfect RNG values shouldn't even be possible because your power should depend on grinding and skilled build making, not RNG values and catching the same thing 500 times for "the perfect IVs and Natures".
>>730984952>>730991174>>730985445>fags not comprehending the idea of hard resetting a gamemedia literacy is dead
Here the article, the actual NHK news article got deleted.https://www.ign.com/articles/japanese-police-arrest-36-year-old-man-on-suspicion-of-tampering-with-pokemon-violet-save-dataThe person was arrested for a new 2019 law against unfair competition on online games.https://www.japaneselawtranslation.go.jp/en/laws/view/3629So it's pretty much an anti doping law for cheating online.
>>730986758He never said otherwise.
>>730996242you think people ever take performance enhancers before playing video games?
>>730993293>click agree>actually had my fingers crossed behind my backTechnocrat Jews HATE this one simple trick!
>>730996394100%. Adderal is a huge problem in pro play.https://americanaddictioncenters.org/blog/esports-adderall-abuse
>>730987434What money was scammed and from who?Someone wanted to buy a save file and he sold it to them, what was the fucking "scam" here?A save file is not copy of the game, it does not function outside of the game, anyone who can share said file has to own the game, a save file is literal progress in the game, if someone is lazy enough not to play the game themselves and wants to skip progress, that's what sharing save files are for. Sometimes you need save files because of game bugs, softlocks etc.How the fuck do you make sharing a save file illegal? Make it make sense
>>730991174Cheats TO A SINGLE-PLAYER GAMEHow the fuck are you getting angry at single-player cheaters?
>>730998847pokemon is not exclusively a single player game and no one fucking cheats to beat the campaign of a pokemon game
