Thanks for the Streisand effect Nintendo. Hadn't even heard of this until now. Now I'm downloading everything, and I'll be donating to the devs if possible. And telling my friends to do the same. I will continue not giving you money for over 10 years now.
Eat shit.
I agree with the sentiment and everything, but the whole gaming console industry has gone to crap after they started putting hard drives/storage in them with the goal of needing you to be online and not owning anything anymore. They are all equally despicable for that. Which makes emulation even more essential, just for preserving those games into the future when the online front will inexorably shut down.
I agree with this as well. However, Nintendo is like the Disney of lawsuits for the gaming industry. No one, and I mean NO ONE protects IP like they do.
Sega might be 2nd place or on par if you ignore Sonic
I can't boast of your 10-year track record, but my next 10 years started today. I canceled my Nintendo online and I'm selling my switch. Fuck Nintendo
The best time to boycott those pricks was 15 years ago. The next best time is today.
