Pirated, or downloaded a back up of a game they bought a physical copy of?
All the people I know who emulated it also bought it in this case, because emulation was objectively a better experience for the game.
I bought it and played in on the switch, myself, but if I ever did another playthrough I'd want to higher res of emulation.
That's technically legal right? Kinda like ripping a CD?
IANAL, depending on your jurisdiction, downloading someone else's backup of something can be illegal. Backing up your own physical copy and using that is very often legal.
Usually its the uploading or distributing thats the illegal part.
Ripping the game from your own system/cartridge is legal, downloading an identical copy from the internet is not.
Source?
Pirated in this case as they're talking about the leak that happened before it was released, so no one owned a copy of it at that point.
