Pirates Will Soon Take Over The 3DS

I think preventing piracy won't really help much in games sales since many pirates will probably just pirate other games, wait for the game to be pirated, buy cheaper games from Steam, Amazon, and GOG.com, and play Free to Play mobile and PC games.

Minecraft does not actively try to stop pirates, and Minecraft is one of the best selling PC and console games. In a way, piracy helps Minecraft get free advertising from pirates who talk about minecraft with their friends, post videos about Minecraft on YouTube, and use their websites, and social networks to spread the news about how fun Minecraft is, so their posts leads to more buyers who buy Minecraft games, clothing, memberships, and toys.

I think Angry Birds also does not actively go after pirates since most people can easily find, and download the paid version for free from a piracy website, but having more Angry Birds gamers mean there will be more post about Angry Birds online, and offline chats to tell their real life friends about Angry Birds.
 
it can't be, just have to give the people reason to not pirate.

They never will. However, video games are particularly prone to piracy, I think.

Piracy is big business. It's like patent trolls. They terrorize real businesses to make money.

Real companies do not negotiate with terrorists. Instead, they destroy them.
