  What is this referring to specifically? Have they been bricking consoles?

    If they think you’re doing anything they don’t like, they can remote block you from Nintendo networks. Which I’m fine with, but it prevents you from being able to reset the device or play local games.

    So anything you bought is now useless and unplayable, they got your money, so fuck you.

      Even in the argument that you only bought a license to the game (not the game itself); why are they not required to refund the license no longer in your possession? Same in online services.

        Exactly. If they want to block their network, fine, but to not allow you to play physical games you bought, fuck that. I’ll never give Nintendo another dollar. I have a steam deck and hacked switch, fuck them. And I share all their rooms on soulseek.
