It's the same with poor countries. I don't play games now, but when I was young and lived in Eastern Europe, by some miracle my mother brought me PS1 with one free game included for Christmas. The non pirate games cost about 50 dollars at the time. My middle class mother Made 250 a month...

I got the machine modded and bought few pirated games... It was impossible for us to afford originals.

That’s different, you’re just getting the same price as the entire world. Purchasing power is different, yes.
