You cracked the case, mistwolf... or should we call you Encyclopedia Brown? ;-)mistwolf said:He is NOT saying 90% of people play pirated games. He is saying 90% of people who play pirated games, use the R4 system.
Although there's a case wherein Maly interpretated the source, the wording clearly delivers the point the wrong way. Maybe wolfmist is right, but then the spokesman really sucks at PR. Checking what the source said:Kwil said:One of the key things you should know if you're going to be a public speaker is how to speak so that what you say is what you mean. What he said means exactly what most people here are interpreting it as.mistwolf said:No, no, no. You are all reading it wrong.
He is NOT saying 90% of people play pirated games. He is saying 90% of people who play pirated games, use the R4 system. Which is a much more believable statistic.In America it's thought 90 percent of Nintendo DS users are playing pirated games because of R4s.
What he should have said, if what you're saying is correct, would be "In America it's thought 90 percent of Nintendo DS users who are playing pirated games do so because of R4s."
That's not what he's saying at all. It might be what he meant to say - I have no idea - but what he said is, "90 percent of Nintendo DS users are playing pirated games."mistwolf said:No, no, no. You are all reading it wrong.

Much like every anti piracy ranter on these forums.Joe said:90%? That sounds ridiculously high. Something tells me dude's got his rhetoric and his reality crossed.

I had commented on this story, but after posting it I've just noticed that this story and thread are over a year old...
But that other 10% is well worth the purchase .Jimmyjames said:Strange, considering about 90% of DS titles are cheap shovelware. I tried to get my niece a DS game one time.... which was a nightmare. Game after game of Pets, Vets, Cooking, and Puzzles. Crap.
Happy with my PSP.
