>because they think all foreigners pirate rejet CDs, and they are the reason for their shit sales
This is always stupid because foreigners weren't part of their demographic in the first place. Just the fact that some people pirate their shit, make it more well-known through reviews and word of mouth, also makes it more likely that other foreigners will buy. Even if it's just a few, they are getting extra sales they wouldn't have otherwise.

But anyway every industry now blames piracy instead of just making better products. For example lately eroge are the lowest effort they've ever been, with both poor writing and poor production values. Even domestic sales are low because people are realizing paying full price (9k+ yen) is simply not worth it anymore. Every company now is using this an excuse to get into mobile shit, which surprisingly, people are getting higher standards for lately and obviously companies who didn't put effort into retail games will fail in the mobage market. In reality low sales + high piracy rate is a symptom of a bigger problem (low quality product).

Basically everyone is salty they couldn't rip off everyone for a cheap buck.
