after what happened with yuzu emu, im done...

EDIT: This post is a joke! It was posted in /c/memes, of course it is going to be a meme! If you consider this news, please re-evaluate your choice of sources.

At the same time, I think it says something about Nintendo that some actually believed this...

I'm going to tell this story to my kid so he believes it and then I can have him stop buying video games.

If you want to boycott this company don't give them ads, don't have their logo reach the front page

what a touching story!!

I saw a lot of cool Nintendo Lego creations recently at a convention. Nothing had Nintendo names. Instead of Goomba, it was named "angry mushroom" and stuff like that.

Also Disney once told a family no multiple times regarding putting Spider-Man on their dead child's tombstone.

Fuck these corporations.

This reminds me of those old urban legends about Disney’s lawyers.

Nah don't boycott Nintendo's shit; steal it.

You're still buying Nintendo hardware.

Honestly, I stopped using Nintendo because of all the joycon issues, the fact they've been mainly just remaking the same games for 30 years and they screwed Wii u customers. You need to re buy the same games again.

On Wii u, not sure if this changed, but if you broke the main controller, you basically couldn't replace it.

They have a better rep than Microsoft and Sony , but I'm not convinced they deserve it

No idea why anyone would buy anything except a steamdeck these days

still buying Nintendo hardware.

Steal that too, and if you wanna move the posts again consider emulation.

How to steal something you can't own? Instructions unclear /s

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

It's simple, steal another copy.

Hmm, not sure if this is a real story. It might be.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 8 months ago

So that's how Nintendo keeps the price of their games so low! They have a secondary revenue stream!

Such a feel good story

I'm gonna need a source on this one.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Yeah this originally a copypasta about a boy from Venezuela named Paco Gutierrez

[–] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago

Nah this happened to my buddy Eric the other day

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

I think it's super not real. So unreal it cycles back to real again. Poor thailand boy.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

The source got pulled off Github already.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 8 months ago

Meme before I've had my coffee? It's more likely than you think.

[–] [email protected] 130 points 8 months ago (3 children)

On the memes community?

If people continue to post jokes here then where will I get my news??

[–] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago (1 children)

That's the neat part, you don't!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

That's never been done before, we're part of history!

[–] [email protected] 49 points 8 months ago (2 children)

On the shitpost one obviosly . Are you dumb ?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago
[–] [email protected] 17 points 8 months ago (1 children)

But if that's for news, where do I get my HQ jemes?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

On the world news one. God these idiots nowadays .

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Yeah, fuck Nintendo but this is very obviously bullshit unless they actually made and sold a product.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Counterargument, Nintendo strikes nonprofit videos and tries to take down free and open source emulators such as Yuzu and Dolphin. The fact that this is so believable should give you an idea of the sort of shit Nintendo is known for.
