Those poor criminals

The switch isn't current gen so it's fair game. Everyone has one. They're being sold on facebook marketplace for $100. Nintendo has sold all of the switch copies of games they're going to sell, they should be focused on making some FUCKING GAMES for the switch 2.

Fuck nintendo, totk was mid and they haven't had a good game in 20 years minimum.

They have to take down Switch emulators because the only games the Shitch Poo has are paid upgrades for last gen games

>>733346607
Don't forget you can play totk at far better render quality than the switch 2 would ever be capable of.

Well the thing is that Piracy is mere File-Sharing and it is what it keeps a lot of media alive and it will always reside in a grey area because the moment you move out of it, it gets complicated real quick.
Emulation is necessary because otherwise scalpers would had annihilated the market for retro games and it is the only floodgate preventing games from going well over $10,000 (See the scalping and fleecing of Limited Run Games).
Affecting this delicate environment because suddenly it has become a problem for Nintendo is not worth it.
In fact, I would like to know what changed that Nintendo consoles and handhelds were really easy to emulate back in Nintendo's peak and that clearly did not affect them.
Honestly, I would had never gotten a NDS if not because I pirated GB games earlier because that was the only way I could be introduced to series like Pokemon or Zelda, the NDS also lead me to buy a Nintendo Wii.
The problem as I see it is that Nintendo stopped marketing themselves toward families and went toward working adults that have the know-how to just emulate Nintendo games on the hardware they already got.
$600 is too much for a family console, the 3Do failed because of this price point, many systems failed because of this price point.
Add to that subscriptions and $100 games with DLC and MTX and no parent can justify buying Lil Timmy a device that ends up consuming $1,500 to $,2000 and offers no benefit to them they way a PS2 was also a DVD player. Graphic wise Nintendo games still look dated at least a decade.
Nintendo simply put needs to change their focus and capitalize on exclusives and the Switch 2 is clearly just as troublesome as the Xbox S|X / PS5 are for MS and Sony respectively. Nintendo is dealing with all the baggage of modern game development and that is a problem MS and Sony failed to resolve reason why Valve has become the defacto leader of the market.
That said, I find pirate reddit culture to be cringe and full of disgusting ill trannies.

The sooner niggers like you trying to use emulation as some sort of moral crusade against nintendo get shot and go away the sooner the piracy scene can go back to it's underground hushed tones and SAFE era of the pre-2020s.

That's not how copyright works. It's either copyrighted or it isn't, there's not different tiers. If emulating a NES game isn't copyright infringement then emulating a game on release day isn't either, and vice versa.
You don't get to have a 100 year bullshit law and get to pick and choose too.

I do think you should hold off on emulating currently supported platforms. Not because "le immoral", but because you're painting a massive target on emulation by doing this.
At the very least shut the fuck up about emulators. Stop gloating on social media. They see that.

This is because PC vegans only exist on /v/. Really makes you think, huh?

I still don't understand why every single emulator insists on being public-facing nowadays.
Why do they need a github associated with an email address?
Why do they need a reddit, a youtube with trailers, a wikipedia article, and contact information on every single dev? Why the FUCK is Retroarch on Steam, and why is Dolphin mad that it's not??

I remember when getting a GBA emulator meant signing up to an anonymous forum and downloading post attachments from some dude named YoshiFan1987 or something. No wonder everything gets dmca'd nowadays.

>>733348772
because games are very interactive. You can't just emulate an arcade for instance. Just isn't the same

That's a psychotic take. Preservation is the only way you'd have a chance at finding that. You should be arguing for greater scope of preservation in that case. Is your brain on backwards?

>pcvegans are so starved for games they have to use their $5k system to play nintendo games
oh so that's why switch 2 is getting hate; zero progress on hacking the system, so an emulator is years and years away, maybe decades even

literal sour grapes kek

>>733351137

I thought the lore was they don't make games anymore
so which is it?

For people who hate Nintendo they sure do want to play Nintendo games. Odd.

>>733346016
Why do westoids like this guy put their name in katakana next to the romaji like they think they have a jp audience?

>>733346016
Did nintendo start hating emulation before or after they got caught using third party emulation to port their own games?

>>733351654
getting a switch devkit is pretty fucking easy. which I like actually

>>733351765
because they are weebs.

>>733351476
>nigga switch 1 is still a thing and ITS STILL GETTING GAMES
But is it still getting games that can be trivially played on PC?

It's all a smoke screen. The Switch 2 has been selling poorly, so they go "it's the evil emulators' fault" to distract people from the real reasons: their exploitative pricing and lack of worthwhile games.

>>733346354
Is that why you keep playing their games

>>733351837
actual weebs know real japanese and just browse the jp side of twitter, these are ironic weebs that want the street cred but are too stupid to actually learn the language

>>733351672
yes, NOT ONLY do they barely make any games, when they do they kinda majorly fuck it up. CS2 is just laughably bad not to mention that it might as well be a third world daycare game, and deadlock is like if valve made the very genre I despise like WTF?? Deadlock should be canceled and if it's not, it's going to easily be valves worst game ever. And even half life alyx just kinda.... came and went. Also its funny since valve secretly did the whole "swap male protag WITH A VAGINA ONE!!!!" and no one noticed......

BUT ITS BAD WHEN WITCHER DOES IT

The only reason any of this is happening is because idiots who are incapable of laying low about activities of dubious legal character.

>>733351913
it's why I started pirating them so I could see if they were even FUN to begin with
do you think I pirate smash brothers and mario kart?

pokegarbage and zeldacraft don't deserve a god damn cent.

>>733351904
if the fastest selling console in history is "selling poorly" i still gotta laugh at the competition

It launched great, but then fizzled, the holiday season was seriously disappointing.

you're retarded and can't understand the point other people communicate,
you only pretend they're communicating the point you imagine they are

>>733352045
nintendo literally releases a ton of shit every year and probably the most every year at this point. Every month or 2 they have something

>>733352091
switch 1s holiday wasn't great until smash came out in 2018 so it took a year

Must...protect...multibillion company.

>>733352161
lmao and thats what these valve fucks are also doing with their hype videos? and BASED MONOPOLY?? lmao

Can't you guys just pirate without being a faggot about it? Turning this shit into some moral crusade where you actively brag about it is what brings the hammer down

Nintendo would be smart to make a Steam like app store on PC instead of being retards with lawsuits and emulators

lol, lmao even
you're all retards, you're comparing a version of a game that was specifically designed/ported to run on a specific system with a fixed hardware configuration to the pc version that is hardware dependent
the steam deck is not a portable console, it does not have dedicated game ports. it is a miniature pc running steamos and you're milage will vary depending on the game, you're own configuration and how much effort the devs put into optimizing
>b-but the switch2 still b-blows the shitdeck out of the park
ok, cool. and? I'm glad you're happy with your purchase

>>733348349
>If you can't own games you can't "steal" games

You can't own people either

>>733352869
negro, that's the goydeck, not just any pc
the goydeck is more expensive than a switch 2 (not the one, the two) by a decent margin without even coming with a dock, has a specific fixed set hardware which can easily be optimized for like a console can, doesn't have windows bloat bogging it down (especially when troonix niggers love to brag how much better performance they get compared to windows), and it still runs like dogshit

>>733349913
>Nintendo ports their game to PC(not on Steam)
>This excludes 80% of PC gamers
>"lol thanks for native port"
>Sells at best like your average EGS exclusive
>Rest just pirate with the excuses of "nintendo being le greedy evil company" and "no steam, no buy"
It's idiotic to try and appeal to PCfags. Unless you bend over for gabe's cock.

>Just ignore the PC market lol, what's the worst that could happen?
>They emulate your games because you literally are refusing them service
>WTF THEY CAN'T DO THAT!????
It's funny watching Gabe Newell become the number 1 name in vidya, all because he did the impossible. The unthinkable.
He...Made a storefront that served the PC market and didn't just scoff at them for being pirates or chuds or whatever other buzzword the industry wants to use.

Nintendo are never putting their games on other systems, because then no one would buy Nintendo systems.
The fact that their shit is generally underpowered and emulation comes around pretty quickly honestly isn't a bad deal. Just let it be.

>>733353313
>Nintendo are never putting their games on other systems, because then no one would buy Nintendo systems

pc goyim nowadays are nothing but shitskins that would pirate either way just like they pirate current pc games
there's a reason they keep celebrating denuvo getting tricked into being activated, so it's not even a proper crack that turns it off and stops causing performance issues, it's 100% just a piracy celebration
the yacht fatso was wrong, piracy is not a service issue, it's a market issue, high trust societies like japan will buy, shitskins will just pirate instead
