      They're so amazingly dogmatic, too. There's this subtext belief that Nintendo's business decisions are somehow profoundly and uniquely wise, such as the claim that there can't be a new F-Zero game because "there's no conceivable way to make it different each time, which is a Nintendo(tm)(r) mandate" as if it wouldn't be enough to add weapons to the vehicles, customization/performance modifications, power allocation, outright flying or even space segments, or even out-of-the-car gameplay.

      Nope. Just the "make it different each time" of the Zelda plot rehashes forever and ever.

      Or, make it "different each time" by making it janky in a way most people don't like, like Star Fox Zero which was also a plot rehash, and then shelve the franchise because people didn't like it. Nintendo is that infallible! so-true

    He made a video about the Mig Switch and now Nintendo has its lawyers watching his channel like a hawk

    With two strikes they could totally nuke the channel at any moment by copyright claiming any Nintendo footage or imagery he's shown in any video he's ever made

    Go for it, Nintendo. Emulation has already been proven in courts to not be sufficient evidence for wrongdoing. Also:

    However, its latest move feels particularly heavy-handed, as it has issued a copyright strike against a YouTube channel that reviews emulation handhelds.

    Go fuck yourself. I hope you get hit with an anti-SLAPP across your litigious faces.

        Naturally. I can hope for it, but I would never expect them to counter-sue. They're the person harmed, so they get to decide what justice looks like for them, and sometimes people just want to go back to normal.

        Sanctions are really the only thing the judge has at their disposal, and I doubt Nintendo's lawyers are dumb enough to get sanctioned.

    [Copypasta of the other repost] While I know the situation described in the article can set a precedent, the title feels misleading at best, given the article describes a single case, and not (yet) a widespread practice.
