Even more so when you consider that the ROM has been dumped for quite awhile. I guess when some shitheel scrapes up the aborted fetus ofbuys up the rights to Princess Maker 2's English release then warezing it will suddenly be exactly the same as download a 0day release of AAA 200 Million Dollar Schlock 2014? I respectfully disagree.

Okay, I'll bite. Why is it more ethical to pirate a just-released old game than a just-released new game? Why is Disney Interactive entitled to more (ethical?) consideration than Super Fighter Team? Is it because Disney had the decency to shut down the studio that made their worthless game, and lock the doors so Warren couldn't sneak back in to hurt any more children?
