    Agreed, but it is pretty important news for our hobby, and third party titles are tied up in its marketing campaign.

      Also you can hate Nintendo while still enjoying some of their exclusive games like Zelda and Mario.

    Why?

      They actively harm the emulation scene, despite themselves being responsible for making it necessary. They don’t want to make their old games available for sale where those potential customers are; they want you to buy their hardware and rent those old games from them in perpetuity. We’re also now at a point, at least temporarily, where their latest games often play better if you emulate them than play them in the only way Nintendo makes them available legally, so buying games and playing them “the right way” is worse. Then there’s the whole thing where they actively stand in the way of competitive Super Smash Bros.

      $500 more likely due to tariffs. Maybe $450.
