Hope they get teached another lesson.

Okay, keep digging your own grave Nintendo. Twitch streamers and YouTubers are a major source of advertising for you, even for back-catalog stuff. The only reason why I see Nintendo directs is because a streamer I enjoy watches them. My interest in Nintendo stuff is pretty low but I’ve been persuaded to buy a few Nintendo games as a result of YouTube or twitch videos. But here’s the thing: these guys have no filter. They swear constantly and love innuendo. They will probably get caught in Nintendo’s net and stop streaming Nintendo stuff. As a result, I will no longer be paying attention to what Nintendo’s doing.

Thanks Nintendo! You’re giving me even more reasons to not buy any of your crap. It’s been years since I bought something from you and I’m happy you keep doing your best to help me with my decision.

gives Nintendo the liberty to not only take legal action but also ban a user from any future use of their IPs in content making.

Features graphic, explicit, harmful, or otherwise offensive content, including statements or actions that may be considered offensive, insulting, obscene or otherwise disturbing to others;

Sounds like they’ve got their work cut out for themselves.

Maybe mark your link as NSFW?

This right here, folks? Is why the concept of “self-documenting code” is nonsense.

I think it’s just basic etiquette to mention that a link is NSFW when you’re sharing it in a regular conversation, no matter the context.

Friendly reminder that it’s really fucking stupid to click links without reading them, and I mean really fucking stupid.

They literally cant take action in 99,99% of cases.

Until they come across the right person inside the EU, then they are fucked. :)

Anti consumer tos are strictly prohibited. For example you could even sue your way out of a ban when you cheated because they keep you out of consuming a product you paid for.

Just bought a steamdeck (switch is objectively inferior)

We could honestly probably say it’s empirically inferior.

Eh, the Switch has a few things going for it:

  • smaller form factor and better battery life
  • joycons are nice for casual gaming
  • physical media can be lent and resold
  • simpler to use - matters a lot for kids

I have and love both. I really like first party Nintendo titles, but I really dislike Nintendo’s legal arm.

A lot of their market practices aren’t great either. Backing up saves on your own hardware, anyone?

Sure, but I almost never care about backing up saves anyway. It would be nice for it to be a thing, but it’s really not something I personally care about.

Ideally, Switch’s software would be FOSS so I could do whatever I please with it, such as developing my own games, turning it into a media server, etc. But it provides enough value that I own one and some games to play with my wife and kids. I also own a Steam Deck which does have a FOSS OS, so it’s awesome that both exist.
