Russ (Retro Game Corps) was so confident with his CEMU video he didn’t think he’d be a target despite everyone in the comments saying otherwise.

Fuck nintendo, I've been playing a pirated copy of Earthworm Jim (GB) all day and I'm gonna keep doing it purely out of spite.

Be defiant. Emulate more games

I've been gradually building up my Switch digital and physical library and stuff like this makes me want to just switch back to Steam and spend my dollar elsewhere.

The strikes are absolutely frivolous and Russ sets a great anti piracy example for others. Backups of your own content are protected.

I'll have to mod a switch purely out of spite.

I thought Japan was all about Face. I guess Nintendo is the exception?
