Nintendo has filed a devastating lawsuit against a gamer who live-streamed pre-release games using an emulator. And that's only the beginning.

You should only piss on the lawn when it’s raining, helps dilute the nitrogen so you don’t get those pee burns that turn the grass brown.

damn this goes deep - learning about pissing etiquette and ethical piracy at the same time 😂

very true though. i wish there was a more widespread code of honor. but most of us lack the insight.

whenever Nintendo is trying to take your money for a 100kb cloud save, steal. every entertainment industry has to also compete against piracy, and the successful ones win (steam, free and sometimes really massively generous cloud saves)

whenever they just try to release a game at a specific point in time, let them. that’s a really fair ask. don’t steal, and don’t publicize it…

there’s a reason most private trackers dont allow pre-releases. it attracts a lot of negative attention

Private trackers are also just snobby little elite clubs, so not surprised
