Idk how people still stomach Nintendo. They get 1 decent exclusive every other year, while the rest of the time, they are overcharging for all their garbage products. Most anticonsumer, anticompetition developer on the market that releases products that lag behind the rest of the industry by 5-10 years.
They crush emulation and antique game preservation sites as a hobby.
How is yet another Mario game worth coming back to?
I don't know why you are getting downvoted. Their actions against yuzu and citra are particularly egregious, and unforgivable in my eyes. Especially, considering they use emulation in their own products. For instance, the nes mini used roms download from the Internet. I'll think twice about buying Nintendo products in the future, and I love Nintendo products.
Nintendo isn't against emulation. They're against piracy, which Yuzu was facilitating. None of the emulators that don't have specific support for unreleased games have been touched so far.
Lies. They have taken down multiple classic emulation websites over the years. Yuzu was only the most recent victim of their bs.
They take down private mods made by individuals all the time, too. It's straight-up coping to deny the vile shit Nintendo does in the name of profit.
