Reminder that poor Gary Bowser was jailed for a year and owes 30% of his income to Nintendo for the rest of his life. He uses a wheelchair and has two kids.
It would be morally wrong to pirate all future Nintendo titles and pay the cover price to Gary's gofundme. Please don't do that.
There's no way that kind of punishment is allowed by the 8th amendment. This is definitely an unusual punishment.
Who gives a fuck that doesn’t entitle them to ruin his life.
Reminder that "poor Gary" was selling pirated roms.
Oh, the horror! I guess that justifies ruining his life forever.
Ah yes, the despicable crime of selling bootlegs can only be punished by permanent service to a billion dollar company. Makes sense.
I thought he was selling chips that let you do piracy
Either way, he and his descendants should be indentured servants to Nintendo. His lineage must be shamed.
lmao imagine thinking this makes him look less symathetic rather than more. What a fucking loser you are.
Nintendo screwed big time. Now there's going to be multiple forks of Yuzu all over the internet. And on every self-hosted Git forge.
As of right now, both Citra and Yuzu are available via Flathub!!! Get them now if you don't have it!!!
Holy shit this thing smells so bad. The announcement reads like "Nintendo's legal team wrote this in exchange for 1 mill smaller settlement"
Reminder that paying Nintendo money is morally wrong and should be avoided when possible. Buy the consoles, sure, but pirate if you have to play the games.
The consoles are the fucking things I don't want to buy... I'm sick of Nintendo and their "buy my console or fuck you" motto...
I haven't bought an Xbox since the 360 and haven't bought a PlayStation since PS4 because I'm so sick of dropping hundreds of dollars on a console for one or two games since the parent companies are assholes and won't have the games ported to PC. At least Sony and Microsoft got the message that you can have your console and sell the games on PC
The Switch runs even first party Nintendo games like dogshit on top of all that. People will say it's the developer's fault, to which I say Nintendo owns the fucking developer so it's still their fault.
Also, Nintendo is the only console company that doesn't port to PC. The fuck are all the annoying anti-Epic Store bros when it comes time to yell at Nintendo?
Reminder that paying money is morally wrong and should be avoided when possible. Steal the consoles and pirate if you have to play the games.
It's the other way around imo. I don't want to pay hundreds of euros for a console (which is still just a computer) that is slower than my phone just because Nintendo puts artificial restrictions on what hardware the software they make can run on. I already have a PC that could run those games perfectly fine. Or rather, it can run those games perfectly fine, way better than a Switch actually. Unfortunately, the only way for me to play those games on my PC, without having to buy a console I don't need, is to pirate them.
So basically, I can either pirate the games for free to play them on my PC or I pay for a console for no other reason but to get the privilege of being able to pay for the games.
Same here. I'm not gonna pay lots of money for a locked down piece of hardware that makes me pay indefinitely to play online and could take away my purchased games at a moment's notice.
I still occasionally buy physical switch games to play on my sibling's switch. I buy physical because there's a resale value to the game. I feel like I actually own a copy of the game.
Anyways, I have a big Steam backlog that I'll never get to because of 1) Factorio, 2) A personal game I'm programming in HTML/CSS/JS, and 3) riding my motorcycle.
Factorio is the closest thing we have to time travel. Start the game and suddenly it's 5 hours later and there's still that one part you could optimize. I fucking love this game.
I have 600h in the game. 80h in my first game, 260h in my bad attempt at a megabase, 25h in a 100% achievements world, and a few random maps. I haven't even tried doing a deathworld yet.
Then once you think you are done, then there are the mods. I have 123h in one overhaul modpack, enough to technically beat it but not truly scale up. There are several other similar scale modpacks, and there exists a certain hardcore modpack that people say takes 1000h or more to beat.
Very easy if it was an earlier model, although I’ve seen some of the newer modchips make soldering about as simplified as possible (but still kinda hard, it’s a tiny board to be fiddling with). I literally hacked my current switch with some aluminum foil and tape (my jig broke, I guess), and besides all that all you need is a decent microsd card and the willingness to follow directions
I agree to never give Nintendo my money again, I hope they also shut down someday.
