I literally could not care less. Thanks to their relentless pursuit of emulator developers and fans who mod their games, Nintendo is dead to me. I'll never understand why they choose to sue their biggest, most dedicated fans into oblivion. It's pure evil.

I could in some ways understand their pursuit of emulators when they're monetizing those same games currently (even if I disagree with their pricing structure on them). What really got my goat was when they went after Garry's Mod animations, a medium that has promoted their visibility and never conflicted with their software sales in the slightest.

Yeah, they're jerks who happen to produce good games from time to time and build consoles out of parts that are 4 years old at launch.

I believe Nintendo went after Switch emulators because the new Switch shares enough with the original to make it a cake walk to emulate Switch 2 games with better performance.

I'm not saying they're doing the right thing but this is always such an overreaction. Among all the evil in the world today nintendo's actions are relatively minor, and widespread piracy gives them a plausible legal basis for doing it
