Before release is before everyone gets a chance at playing it themselves. This person also isn’t a professional reviewer or journalist so their content isn’t beneficial to the consumer either. Before also releases spoilers that will be near impossible to avoid once they’re out. And what’s the point of playing the hot new game if you already know the story?
I call Nintendo my angel of salvation and the mother I never had, but I’m just being realistic. Streaming (actually) pirated new games actually does cause damage. Most likely not as much as Nintendo is suing for, but damages nonetheless.
If they were suing for streaming Super Mario World romhacks, especially in 2025 where SMW is old enough to be a dad or the United States President, and is NOT being actively sold, then yeah, I’d disagree. Even if one were to pull “but it’s on Switch Online” or some silly nonsense.

Nintendo actually saved my life, not joking or exaggerating.

You’re actually unwell then. Seek professional help because Nintendo is not your friend. This is going to blow up in your face some day, and it is going to end poorly for you.
Mental health issues are complicated and suicide is awful, and idk you or your situation. Whatever happened, it’s good that you’re still here, but this religious devotion to a corporation is fucking disgusting. When you find out that Nintendo employees laugh at people like you during their lunch breaks, will you still feel like they’re your angels? How much labor have you given to them, both in the form of money you earned to buy their products, and online activity to defend their honor?
Don’t give yourself to a corporation like this. If you were saved, Nintendo weren’t the ones who did it.

I call them out when they actually do something wrong. And yes, they really did save my life, far more than just saving me from suicide.
