I see Nintendo emulation / mod chipping / console hacking I support it. Toxic company deserves a return in kind for its abuse of its fanbase.

At this point, I guess they are either ignorant, unethical, or they are just lying to themselves because they can’t resist the temptation to play their games.

Look I don’t fault developers for kissing the ring. I know and have spoken with multiple devs at different Nintendo affiliated companies and they don’t enjoy it either but it lets them make the games they love for the people that they want to entertain.
I can’t say I support hating a full group of people because that’s not great either. “… except for the Amish but it’ll never get back to them” - John Pinette

You can’t negotiate with junkies. You need to get them into treatment

I‘ll still buy their controller because you can‘t sue Chinese companies either so what‘s the difference? However I‘ll use it for PC gaming. No way I‘m going back to their ecosystem. Those days are gone.

Anyone still buying anything they can get for free at this point isn’t paying attention.

I am very happy to be living in Austria. We have this law right here www.ris.bka.gv.at/NormDokument.wxe?Abfrage=Bundes… (And yes, our laws are available for free and up-to-date for everyone)
Section 6(1)(14) of the Austrian Consumer Protection Act states that any contractual provision requiring a consumer to waive their right to assert claims is invalid.

Wow, is this not the case everywhere? People can’t know the laws of their own country without paying? 😵💫

This shit never holds up in court - you can’t just sign rights away by clicking “accept” on a EULA. This is a scare tactic designed to stop people before they ever try because “well it says i can’t do that in the eula.”
If Nintendo give you a reason to sue them, sue the ever loving shit out of those greedy corporate fucks.

Never say never and never give these assholes corporations an inch they will screw you every chance they can and it will cost the consumer money and time in the end with these shenanigans.

Fair.
I may have been thinking about articles I’ve read about the EU and how they don’t tolerate this particular brand of corpo overreach, my apologies and thank you for the correction.
God I wish I lived in a sane country.

Don’t worry Nintendo, even as someone who grew up on SMB, you’ve thoroughly convinced me to never do business with you ever again. Not even nostalgia…

Good thing that such clauses are null and void in Québec, Canada.

Forced arbitration is unconstitutional. Roberts should be ashamed of himself.

Wow Nintendo is really quadrupling down on being absolutely shitty! Love that I have a Steam Deck instead of a Switch because I’m never buying from these assholes again.
gradual@lemmings.world 8 hours ago
Don’t forget, you can and should still pirate their games.
Torzu is the logical successor to Yuzu. There will undoubtedly be a Switch 2 emulator.
Do not give this corporations your money. They will always use it against us.

Do all emulators support online play though?

Just so ya’ll know, EULAs are routinely thrown out of court.
They straight up don’t matter, and anything that is extremely long and asks you to ‘agree’ to it is subject to the same scrutiny.
