Well, my local import game store has apparently been forced to close down due to the selling of anime bootleg tapes.
Which sucks hard. I was going to see about getting Border Down there, and they had some atari stuff too. Combined with another vendor in the flea phasing out older stuff (except on request) my options for collecting have dropped signifigantly. :angry:

We'll that sucks but if they well selling bootlegs (or fan subs for a profit) then they had it coming.

Sucks for you cause you can't buy games there, but they should have KNOWN better in a retail store.

Yeah, it was kinda bad timed too, because he's been phasing them out... I think the only bootlegs he had at that point were just ones he hadn't sold.
The next closest import stores are all about a half hour from here, and as anyone who knows me can tell ya, my car sucks and can't be driven, sooo...Border Down will have to wait.

It happends simply because there are those stupid enough to buy that illegal crap. Look the copyright police are every where and if you get caught you could be hit with 2 million dollar judgement against your hide. This happens more and more often than you think. Take today, I was watching CNN and they told of a guy who made copyrighted DVDs out of his apartment. He not only got 4 years in PRISON. But the people he attempted to defraud (The copyright holders) are suing his ass for 10 million dollars.
