Games@sh.itjust.works•Here's why that embattled retro gaming YouTuber might not be so innocentEnglish
1·4 months agoNo idea but in Europe copyright law doesn’t seem to be enforced as much against little guys but taxman will come for everyone. That YouTuber seems to be a grifter, collecting money for his defense while also making money off a Telegram shop. He knew he could make things up and people (and „journalists”!) would fall for it because Nintendo bad.

1·4 months agoHe was selling them outright via Facebook / Telegram. I’ll speculate a little bit - it’s likely it wasn’t taxed which is why he was singled out.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Nintendo can disable your Switch 2 for piracy in the U.S., but not in Europe, as confirmed by its EULAEnglish
0·4 months agoYou can still play your Switch games online after getting banned using LDN bridges. The best way to avoid getting banned from a Nintendo service is not to hack your device.

1·4 months agoSay you get VAC banned, your entire library can’t play VAC multiplayer games. If you hacked in Splatoon you buy a new Switch but your library is retained.

0·4 months agoThey are denying you access to the service rather than your hardware. I prefer how Nintendo goes about it (locking hacked device) compared to Valve or Sony where your entire game library gets locked. As someone with a banned Switch I think that’s fair, I can pirate things on it anyway. Nobody said piracy has to be easy and I enjoy a bit of cat and mouse.

2·4 months agoCould be, I’m in Eastern Europe so there weren’t that many servers and I hung out in maybe a dozen or so. You’d also expect this area to be the hive of scum and villainy but it was mostly nice people playing in general.

31·4 months agoI have something like 500h in TF2 from back before Valve killed it with lootboxes and I haven’t really experienced porn sprays. I think people didn’t want to risk VAC ban from a paid game.

Games@sh.itjust.works•Nintendo addresses Switch 2 price, supply versus demand, and Game-Key Card concernsEnglish
0·4 months agoI guess the point was that if you have a very low performance ceiling it acts as an equalizer of sorts. An indie developer doesn’t need to be as much concerned with competing with big AAA publisher if the end product will not differ that much in graphics and graphics, for better or worse, sell games.

Cyberpunk 2077, Street Fighter 6, Yakuza 0, Bravely Default Remaster. All rereleases. Only Fast Fusion and Split Fiction are new but both are a bit of a niche thing.

I’m glad money is of no concern for you but one device costs twice as much as the other :)
