Nintendo are blaming rampant piracy for a 45-percent drop in European DS game sales, pointing to so-called “magicom” or “R4″ cartridges – which bypass copy protection and allow downloaded game ROMs to be played on the handheld – as the primary cause.  The hacks have previously been a significant issue in Japan, but have more recently spread to Europe; Italy, Spain and France are particular hotspots, apparently.

Nintendo president Satoru Iwata has already said that the company intends to ”enhance the ability to combat piracy in Europe through both legal and technological means”, predominantly through developing consoles that won’t play pirated titles, but it seems they’ll also have to challenge attitudes toward game ownership.  ”Everybody is using [magicom],” one gamer is quoted as saying, “and I don’t feel like I am doing something particularly wrong.”

1: Nintendo is mad towards Europe ,since that’s where their sales problem have been happening. So, as a result, Nintendo shall make their catridges more “piracy-block.” So, they’re hoping that they can increase in sales over there.

2:Our favorite part of this article was when Nintendo President, Satoru Iwata, says that they will try to make piracy happen less .

3:What do you think will happen once Nintendo makes DS catridges more enhanced to block out piracy? Will they sell more? or drop to rock bottom?

Here’s a video about our point kinda obvious though.

We use viddler.com as a resource page. And we use it to help prove our point about math in technology.

the way viddler.com helps us is the way it provides video evedence of our topic.
