this is the reason why Nintendo releases their old games on the E shop for way more than what they’re worth. Once it’s up there they get to do takedown requests of every ROM on the internet.

I want to be astonished and ask in disbelief if that's really the case. But with how Nintendo treats not only piracy but content derived from their games in general (mods, tournaments and stuff), I can't be surprised.

Do you mayhaps know why Nintendo is so hard on that front? I've heard that it's "just the mentality in Japan", but I can't remember Sony cracking down on people like that.

Nintendo is just a shit company when it comes to their business end. They act way more aggressive than they have to, for no real good reason.
