A person who goes out and buys this amount of games just has to be the worlds most honest person.
The totally opposite person would just get an R4.
Which are you?

My collection totally crushes that one. I have more than that in NES, SNES, N64, Ssga Genesis, Saturn, Dreamcast, Playstation, Playstation 2, Xbox and DS--EACH! Heck, I have more PS2 -RPGs- than that entire collection combined. Also; no, none of that is pirated. most of my games I actually pay for. There's only a few I have that are pirated, and that's just because I never would have actually bought them anyway--maybe if I found it for $5 in a bargain bin, but aside from that I'd either pirate it or not have it at all.

...and I wonder why I'm always broke...lol!

Guess it's because it's hard to find the R4 in Japan ^^;

I'm eyeing the CycloDS personally.  Seems to be better than the R4 from the reviews.  I pirate all my systems except for GC (because it's a pain), and the PS3 (since there's no exploit...yet).

Danny, do you notice many people with pirated games/devices/modchips in Japan?

Aside from the olden days of the Amiga, ive never played copied games - i always buy mine. Theyre cheaper now than they used to be, and part-exchanging old games is a great way to get money off.

Stupid european delays on some games (MGS3, Rock band etc) make me want to turn to piracy though! I dont get why we have to wait ages longer for some games!

other than my PSP, i don't play any other console games.

majority of my gaming are on the PC which i play from time to time when i'm free.

i buy original PC games but only those that are very good.

For some reason the only legal games I own these days are games of collections 
I really love (i.e. Zelda) or classic games for the nes,snes,n64,,sega master system,sega megadrive etc.
But the reason why i download games/use flash cartridges is not to feel bad when i have played a terrible game that would have costed me 70 dollars otherwise.

I have as many pirated as I have the originals.. I happen to have this bad luck of having pirated games since most of the time the games just stopped halfway through which really pissed me off.. Especially during the time of PSX when there's no original games ard my country.. Then my pirated MGS game stuck on the 2nd disc! Damn, that horrible moment!

I have 24 PSP games and around 7 movies. I try to buy new games that get good ratings like.. Jeanne D'Arc (excellent game) but most of my collection are old games that are marked down to $19.99 or less. It's true most of the time I don't finish the games, but that's just me being a collector I guess.

Put me in the honest column. Games are my vice-- Instead of spending on beer or cigarettes!

Most honest person? I'd also say quite a rich bloke (even if Japanese games are much less expensive than anywhere else) and an absolute Nintendo DS fan.

Between this and the R4, I'm into the middle. I prefer to buy games when they are in the bargain bin (Why did it only appear with the Playstation and the Platinum thing?!)

I wouldn't buy every game. I tend to wait for critics, that prices drop (the only exception was Zelda Twilight Princess for Gamecube) and hoping that they don't become collector items too early.

I prefer to buy my games, but i don't buy that many games because my taste is very distinct. I pretty much only buy a game if it has been recommended to me, or i've red several positive reviews.

I am an honest person....unfortunately.... my friend has one of these though... it pains me everytime he downloads something new... he the new Digimon game... which I'll most likely never have because stupid western companies won't buy it....

Hahahaha it's great that someone can find so many games they like ^^ I like to buy them too, mostly because I'm a retard to modify my PSP or keep up with emulators and such (used to have a GBA emulator and used it like crazy), but I guess I just don't have that many games to get interested in. I'm very picky with them and even then sometimes I won't play them and they'll gather dust.
