    Streaming bootlegged games is a fast track to legal trouble. I don’t blame Nintendo at all here.

      Agreed. I hate Nintendo and their scummy tactics just like anyone else, but sadly the law is on their side here. Also, they’re known for this. Why would you do this and then double down after they start taking down your content.

      I am not on Nintendo’s side, but I have zero sympathy for someone who does this to themselves.

        …why? Pirating games and streaming games don’t correlate to skill in testing games.

    Sometime a streamer, he show his pre-release to corporation Nintendo and say “You will never get this you will never get it la la la la la la.” Nintendo behind its lawyer. Nintendo cries, Nintendo cries and everybody laughs. Streamer goes “You never get this.” But one time Nintendo send lawsuit and Nintendo “get this” and then we all laugh. High five!

      I have no issues with piracy, but streaming pirated materials is just dumb. Streaming pirated materials of a company that is known for being litigious? Just put your whole dick in the wasp nest.

      That’s why this is funny.

      You know, it’s okay to recognize Nintendo’s scummy legal practices while also recognizing that in this one single instance they are in the right.

      Streamer sounds like an idiot:

      They emailed Nintendo directly about plans to continue doing so;

      • They emailed Nintendo about helping folks find new versions of emulators, such as Yuzu and Ryujinx;

      This dumbass contacted Nintendo to taunt them about how he’s gonna stream leaked pirated copies. Hard to have sympathy for this idiot for poking the bear.

      It sounds like they actually control quite a lot.

      Turns out, when you do something clearly not okay and then actively go and taunt the people who could sue you for it with it, they might just, you know, do that. Since you actually went and asked them about it.

      Playing leaked games early. Wow, you have no standards. Just hate for Nintendo.

        I mean I think the guy is stupid, but let’s honestly reflect here, who gives a fuck about some leaked Nintendo game getting played a week or two early. Like honestly, it might not technically be victimless (though even that can be argued), but the ‘damage’ is so small it’s like being upset that someone stepped on your grass.

        I give back what I receive, so in theory…yes.

        Id rather see someone play a leaked game early, then have to deal with some corporate garbage trailer that pulls all the stops to deceive it’s fans. I’d rather see actual gameplay, from a normal user then the slop they script.

        They aren’t selling anything, so what does it matter other then tendo can’t lie as easily.
