As a gamedev I feel strongly about financially supporting the games and creators I like so I try to always pay for the game if the price is fair. But Konami can fuck right off, they basically hold SotN and all the best Igavanias hostages behind their shitty bundles that are too expensive and sometimes exclusive to some platforms. Some of them were still Nintendo DS exclusive for ages until they got released in a bundle recently. I'll consider giving them money again when they start actually making games again.
Same treatment applies to retro Nintendo games. You're telling me I bought basically all your consoles since the GameCube at release day and you're still gonna fuck me over and make me pay your stupid online subscription so I can play Super Metroid on the switch (even though I still own a working SNES and the game's cartridge) ? Honestly that was the last straw that made me preorder the steam deck when I heard how easy it was to emulate on it
