[citation][nom]idlerp[/nom]I wish I have the fortitude that you seem to have, rewriting history as you see fit and all. The video game crash that caused Atari to bankrupt happened before Nintendo ever released the Famicom/NES. It also had nothing to do with piracy, it was caused by the market being flooded by numerous consoles and horribly developed games. If there was piracy, it would have actually had to have been counterfeiting at the commercial level, as the home user wouldn't have had the ability to copy EPROMs in 1983.[/citation]
the piracy back than was pc, and back than, right next to the games, were blank floppy discs, piracy (the kind that mpaa/riaa wants you to believe happen everywhere, counterfeiting) was more rampant back than than now.
