Comment on Nintendo Anti-Piracy Policy Device Lock Update Warns of Console Bricks for Unauthorized Use

There is really no benefit to relieving your ignorance

If I leave you in the dark, I am badwrong for not doing free labor for you

If I answer your question, I just get my inbox flooded with people looking to argue for no good reason.

They lost a license on an old all in one game in the late 80s because they did not defend it rigorously enough in court. You won’t be able to find an article about it b/c all legal nintendo case searches get caught on the Palworld and Wii U controller court cases even if you change the date ranges.

I don’t know what the name of the unit was, it was never released outside of Japan. IIRC it was a tank simulator game with the console built into a controller that looked like a little turret on a pivot and used the same tech as eventually went into the nintendo light gun

The reason nintendo so aggressively pursues emulation is that they are scared of losing the rights to things like their bios files.

And you dont find it weird that not all companies in japan go bankrupt because they have to literally claw back devices after sale to keep their patents? I know us autists can get stuck on ideas easily but do you see how their behavior is overzealous at best and this explanation being plain apologist bs at worst?

  I fucking told you and you didn’t listen. How about you go do your own work instead of constantly demanding free labor from others?

    I mean, you do advertise that you’re perpetually angry but youre just rude and disrespectful. Your vague reproaches arent anything to work with, in case you really didnt know that. It like screaming "do your own research’ when certain groups are unhappy with science. Thats not how people function, it is ableist and unbecoming. Please do better.

There is, because you’re not enlightening one person, but at least 28 by the looks of it. You could’ve been part of a teaching moment to the equivalent of a classroom full of people.

I just get my inbox flooded with people looking to argue for no good reason.

You get the same or worse by making shit up like blaming everyone for not investing time and energy into every event out there like it’s our job to find out what everyone’s doing in detail. The sheer quantity of events happening by the day is overwhelming. You can help save so much time by giving a quick rundown instead, or better yet, link to a credible source with an explanation.

I am badwrong for not doing free labor for you

It’s not free labor, but technically part of the burden of proof and part of the spirit of cooperation. You are responsible for the basic explanation or the citation of your sources so that you can be understood. Pushing this onto others is skimping out on due labor instead by being an uncivilized gremlin.

Explain why Sony, as another Japanese company that builds consoles, is not doing the same, please.

oh no a japanese video game giant is doing nasty, anti consumer things to maximise profits. Truly terrible and sad that nintendo is forced to be terrible by evil gamers or whatever.
