We really need someone with budget to take Nintendo to court over this.

Sadly, I don't think that will happen.

we can also not pay for their stuff

At this point its not just "vote with your wallets" because they have like a 8B+ global turnover

Me not giving them 60 bucks does nothing, even the entire Fediverse not giving them 60 bucks would do nothing.

Though, them thwarting game preservation efforts on the basis of shitty DRM? Thats what I'd like to see fought.

Good luck with the torrents and Mega links.

Imagine dedicating so much budget and workforce toward such things. Just imagine going at the office in the morning, knowing that you will have to find ways to crack down on things of that kind, which offer entertainement to so many.

Imagine working on taking joy out of people.

This definitely has something to do with their next console. I bet my nipples that it‘ll be so similar to the switch that an existing Yuzu would be capable enough to emulate / hack that new console within a day or a week.

So they’re taking it all down while it’s unreleased to make sure they cash out on all the consoles from the get-go.
