!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Despite the fearmongering going around about bricks, this is only online bans. Same thing they've always done, same thing Sony and Microsoft do too if you get caught there.

Frankly, if you try to go online with pirated games, you're an idiot.

ah, the old "let's completely shit on the millions of people who give us money, in order to do nothing to the handful of people who torrent our shit" strategy

The Nintendo online play is a joke. Not connecting to the web is a boon imo

Going online with flash carts on a new console is certainly a choice. The first Switch already hardware banned for doing that, so this isn't new.

I know people that got their Nintendo DS banned for using flash carts. This ain't new.

Fuck Nintendo. No other company has as much active distain for their fans. And the damage they’ve done to game preservation is immeasurable.

Worse than disdain, it's hostility. Their family-friendly image is at odds with their actual actions. Going after streamers because they dare play (and publicize) your games...? What the fuck!? Their attitude literally makes me reconsider buying their console and/or games...

Is that against the terms and conditions?

Just asking!

Yes, they've always banned users for going online with pirated games, and the T&C has always warned you that they would. Sony and Microsoft do the same thing too.
