Nintendo is too litigous, and just successfully sued a switch emulator out of existence.

They've also stolen code from emulators (who I think they also sued).

I mean, that's fair, and super fucked up. I have a lot of issues with that, including the cultural ramifications

Still, it seems a different caliber to being actively hostile to players in the game design department. Nintendo games aren't the ones using psychological manipulation to give me a gambling addiction

That's fair, though. It's hella fucked up, and I've been wary of Nintendo's approach to this stuff since way back when AM2R was coming out
