Good, it serves them right for the way they treat their customers. I hope every one of their games gets leaked early.
They typically do in my experience
yup, i was active in the n64 days and we enjoyed early roms :)
That’s awesome, I didn’t know it went that far back

Unpopular opinion: These leaks are probably the reason for Nintendo being so ruthless on emulators.
It’s difficult to know how much of a difference it makes, but I also think it’s at least a reason. Given Nintendo is also going after sites like Vimm’s Lair, which does not host recent consoles ROMs, it’s not the only reason.
Certainly not. But with Vimm’s lair you could argue that it’s definetly illegal, while emulation is generally considered legal.
There’s tons of illegal things that people do every single day that the law turns a blind eye to because reality is complicated. Piracy of games not being sold by the company anymore is certainly by-the-books illegal, but everyone obviously recognizes that it’s an entirely harmless “crime”. Like smoking weed in illegal states. Everyone knows it’s bullshit, so if you defend locking people up for a few grams of weed you’re a bootlicker.
To be clear: I agree that both weed and emulation is a victimless “crime” and shouldn’t be prosecuted. However, I don’t think corporate lawyers and judges agree with us on this point.
Edit: also, Nintendo usually gets what they want by threatening to go to court without actually doing so. So the actual legality doesn’t actually matter too much. Certainly doesn’t when it comes to Switch emulators shutting down.
You’re right. I just hate corporate bullies.
Remember: It’s always ethically okay pirating a Nintendo game
At this point, I think it’s gone from “ethically okay” to “mandatory”.
It’s like downloading Metallica’s newest album. Sure, I might never listen to it, but it’s the principle.
Good.

Brothership? Are they intentionally playing into incest fan fic? Are those the only Mario fans left? Is Luigi really a bottom in their brothership? Can parents see why kids love the taste of cinnamon toast crunch™©®?

Gamers, is it gay to call a bond between siblings brothership?
It’s a portmanteau of brotherhood and friendship, with the joke being that they are on a boat
its 2024, if you aren’t shipping incest what are you doing with your life?
Every day I am trying my hardest, to not give into a temptation and eat my own body weight in puffed cheese balls.
This has nothing to do with the post, however you did ask.the first step to achieving your goals is making them more achievable, in this case if you weigh less you will need to eat fewer cheeseballs.
Does it run on ryujinx? 🤣
I wouldnt know
Spoiler
(but yes)
Well, it works fine on the steam deck.
Probably very likely.
Oh no! It says there might be early spoilers! Yikes!
Nothing for me to do but go download the ROM and play it early, then. I have no choice.
With ho wierdly consistent these leaks are now.
I doubt Nintendo is smart enough to use that as a biz strategy, by like, there has to be some intention behind this from on an insider.No Thanks https://yewtu.be/watch?v=Uig6djcy73c

utterly revolting!!
Where did these leak so i know to stay away from those parts of the internet.
Not sure but there has been a torrent of leaks as of late.
How does it happen?
The first gen switch is really easy to hack. Once someone in the supply-line gets their hands on a cartridge, it’s already online.
