>inb4 japan hates it that's whyThe japanese practically made ROM hacking. In 1987, people were already modifying super mario bros with Tonkachi Mario. Throughout the 90s and 2000s, The elevens were reverse engineering games, creating custom levels, experimenting with hardware, and sharing patches. Kaizo Mario itself came out of this culture. Kaizo still is very prominent. There's so many japanese-made rom hacks and edits of games.>THEY HATE NINTENDO OR DID IT OUT OF SPITE They did it because they loved games enough to take them apart, understand them, and create something new.Today and you'll find tendies genuinely butt hurt over someone modifying a game they purchased, or as of late, using claude to reverse engineer shit and hack the switch 2.>install a fan translation>restore censored content>make a 60fps patch>create custom levels>emulate a game for better performanceAll these make Tendies lose their shit.When did simply enjoying games in your own way become a moral issue?I'm not talking about cheating online and being an asshole. I'm talking about the freedom to experiment with software, preserve games, fix things developers won't, and create new experiences.The early Japanese hacking scene gave us decades of creativity, ingenuity, and entire communities built around pushing games beyond their original limitations.Now we have consumers voluntarily defending billion-dollar corporations unironically.>inb4 Nintendo is protective of its IP more nowThat was never an issue before.What changed? Why do tendies treat corporate permission as the dividing line between creativity and wrongdoing?At what point did we go from celebrating people who pushed games beyond their limits to shaming them for doing it?>tldr: Tendies now hate emulation, hacking and modifying games when it wasn't an issue before. Why?
>>750253453Who specifically is upset about emulation? I haven't seen anything.
>>750253453We were too mean to them during switch 1 era we literally played games days before launch and spoiled them Poor tendies
>>750253519OP is clearly a faggot who frequents tendie-troon subreddits
>>750253453I've said it before on another thread and I still say it: The one thing Nintendo is much better at than the other console makers is continuously feeding parasocial relationships, they know very well how to create fanboys that will defend anything they do no matter what.
>>750254006>they know very well how to create fanboys that will defend anything they do no matter what.yea they make use of underhanded tactics such as actually making games
Normalfags are retards.All you have to do is claim X was with AI and they sperg out and get the ick>Oh yeah here's a complete archive dump of every Nintendo game past present future>Wow cool! Thanks>And it was compiled and archived by AI>Brb calling Nintendo lawyers!!!
>>750253453They know they overpaid for the Switch 2 and that it has no worthwhile games. The idea that you’ll get to play any worthwhile games it eventually gets, for free, makes them feel stupid. Deep down they are familiar with Nintendo’s incompetence for anything internet-related, and know that there is no chance Nintendo puts the genie back in the bottle.
>>750253519Nips consider emulation and piracy to abhorrentNo i will not pay $200 for an out of print gameNo i will not pay $40 for a cheap digital cashgrab

>>750253453You are aware that the average Tendo/Eric/Palworld/anti piracy post are elaborated trolling, yes?
nice copypasta tranny
>>750254006It's because Nintendo tries to appear the same as always with the exact same characters and IP. Gives their loser fanbase a sense of childhood Nostalgia for a time when they were little tardo kids and not the adult failures they are now.>>750254198They reheat the same slop they made 30 years ago.
Brownies thread
>>750254582What a fucking faggot. You have a chance to get a game you really wanted for free and he chooses to seethe about it because it's: ''not on the hardware it's meant to come out on''. What an unbelievable faggot and it's because of retards like this that gaming is in the state that it's in.
>'serious discussion'>tendiesNice try, douchefag
>>750253453>preserve games>modern gameslol it's so weird you fags try to dance around the issue with "morals" and "game preservation" (especially weird when it comes to modern games), you could at least try to be honest about it - you don't want to pay for stuff and you'll find whatever way you can to justify not paying for stuff, because you're poor, and I'd much rather respect a poor person than a dishonest person
>>750256104>I-it's because you're poor!!Always a pathetic argument from tendies. All you are doing right now is exposing yourself as a person who can't easily spend 500 bucks. Gaming is one of the cheapest hobbies I ever had. Try being a car guy in [current year+13].
>>750253453Hacking is a criminal act.
>>750256372>can't even admit it>will do anything to justify his "moral stance" on stealing things that are newI accept your concession, brownie, now go back to the call center you have old people to scam
>>75025345399% is just because of piracy concerns and the impact it might have on the company whos products they enjoy.We say "vote with your wallet" alot and pc players always love to say they dont like game X from nintendo and are happy they dont buy it but then pirate if in droves and brag how fun it is on pc.As an ex high end pc gamer(,4090, whole shebang) I get that you dont want to pay another 500 bucks to get new hardware to play games that look and run way worse then your pc, but in my mind, nintendo is the only one putting out videogames for people who like to play video games and it would be nice if they got rewarded for that.
>>750255776>Gives their loser fanbase a sense of childhood Nostalgia for a time when they were little tardo kidsAppeal to nostalgia is one of the oldest tricks in the book for that. But the other tactic they started using for some 15 years now is focus their ads on parents and children playing the games together, since a lot of the old Nintendo fans now have kids, and Nintendo wants to create the idea that it's always been there with them as they grow old
>>750253453Because calling them a cultist isn't some low effort remark. There are people who people out there who quite likely feel like they're on this earth to buy every version of every system and accessory People modding/ commiting any measure of piracy is an affront to their callingShit's fuckedGrowing up a poorfag kept me from reaching that pointHaving a pulse and a fully functioning brain helped me realize how fucked up late stage capitalism nintendo's practices and intentions really are>>750255901Oh, there's plenty of reasons, but this example is very much a part of the Jackson Pollock puzzle of fuckery
>>750253453>All people of a group are the sameCan you guys just go somewhere else and no bother the rest of us with your drivel? People who hacked the shit out of the GBA, DS and Wii didn't disappear. Zelda BotW also has a lot of mods. I have no idea where the sentiment that Nintendo fans are so much against hacking even comes from when Nintendo consoles are possibly the most emulated out there.
>>750253453Morally undeveloped manchildren. Japan's problem? Fuck if I know. Might be something in the water.
>>750253453It is illegal under japanese law to modify software that you do not own, as in have the controlling rights to modify and sell. You do not own software which you access through a license, which is virtually all software.Games and console operating systems are licensed software.It's just a case of legality = morality.It's not a litigious culture, the state or the corporation will win legal proceedings 99 times out of 100.Historically, Nintendo has won every suit it has pursued, even against Pocketpair.
>>750257814>Historically, Nintendo has won every suit it has pursued, even against PocketpairThe Pocketpair suit doesn't get a decision until next month anon
>>750254949>piracy post So tendie cultists aren't crying about their precious toy tablet being jailbroken all over the internet/youtube?
>>750253453why do you care so much
>>750254582I understand his pain but PIRATES are going to PIRATE.
>>750258107Nintendo WILL win, they just wont get the damages they're seeking.
>>750253453Fanboys are all like this, they've been like this forever. They're all hypocritical bootlickers. You could've just directly called all the tendies whining in any of the switch 2 getting fucked and hacked threads faggots. Did you really need to make this thread?
>>750253453>using claude to reverse engineer shitNOT ANYMORE LOL THE DREAM IS DEAD. GET A JOB, ANON.
>>750254006It feels like that Nintendo is the only company that can get away with making AI games with the leftist tranny Anti-AI crowd.
>gets raped and gapes for months when ps5 was also getting raped and gaped>g.g.guys aren't you le mad I posted a grey peach model?????
>>750256452Overpaying for items is one of the blackest things you can do. The white man pays what something is actually worth. In Nintendo's case it's paying with a few minutes of my time installing the emulator and nothing more. Cope and deal with it, nigger.
>>750253453>All these make Tendies lose their shit.Do you consider the active community of modders, romhackers for mario/zelda/etc to not be tendies? Mario 64 modding alone is its own entire world at this point, surely that suggests people approve of it.
