  It’s also pretty slimy that reporters had to snoop it out of the new EULA and Nintendo didn’t put out a press release addressing it.

  I’m really happy you recognize a megacorp’s evil behaviour, but you don’t have to agree with something just because you understand why and how it works.

  I guess the proper answer to your diss would be: cope better. Maybe I don’t understand this corner of the internet yet, but I feel we’re missing out on great debates and ideas if soapboxing is more important.

  I do understand their point in a weird twist of copyright and marketplace spirit:

  Companies lose money on consoles, so they can’t afford to sell the hardware without people paying for the software.

  All in all, I don’t think it’s totally anti-consumer behaviour, but they will face the appropriate backlash in some form or the other.

  As someone who grew up on Nintendo I don’t wish them ill, even though they are suffocating that part of the emulation industry. I’d rather we find the reason of the imbalance why we don’t have 80 bucks to easily shell out for a game and address why Nintendo feels it needs to sit on it’s old IP.
