Apparently Torzo exists already!
Also knowing how butthurt Nintendo is rn it probably means Switch 2 is vulnerable to emulation so not that long probably.
Wait, it doesn't appear to be the same within the EU.
Both the French and German EULA seems to say that if you alter a digital product, the digital product might be rendered unusable. Although my French and German is bad, so someone please double check.

I know it should have been earlier, but that really is the last straw for buying Nintendo products for me.
what a shame.
Damn, first they get shady patents and now this. They're really on a roll for being a pretty unethical company.
They're the Disney of gaming, really.
So true. And what’s sad is that so many people love these two companies😨
They're going to start breaking them as soon as the switch 3 is released I guarantee it.
Also this seems like I don't know not theft Maybe, but some crime.
I don’t see how this is different from any other company. Xbox has forever done the same. I’m pretty sure Sony has too
I don't see why I should be okay with that either.
Hilarious that this comment is so far down, Lemmy can be such a circlejerk.
Sony and Xbox absolutely reserve the right to brick your console. IIRC Sony bricks stolen Playstation consoles if they ever connect to the internet. This is nothing new.
Yeah the Nintendo vitriol for the past month has been funny. I get it, companies are not our friends, and Nintendo has done a lot of shit to be mad at. The game keycards are dogwater, but this concept of buy cartridge and download the rest is not new. Sony and Xbox have literally done the same shit for years, and Nintendo did this with some large games on Switch 1.
Another comment showed Sony will brick hacked consoles that get on the internet. Switch 1 also does this.
The price sucks, but it's definitely tariffs, since the console is like a whole hundred dollars cheaper in Japan.
If you wanna pirate/emulate, pirate/emulate. I just don't like pirating current gen consoles, and it's a hassle to do so on Switch 1 if you got a newer one. Plus switch emulation on steam deck seems to be iffy for some games... I pirate/emulate old consoles cause they're dead and they're not making money on them anyway. Sometimes you just want to buy a game and enjoy them, especially for online ones like Splatoon.
I'll just wait for the price to be reasonable one day.
Microsoft and Sony don't brick your console if you hacked it; they'll ban you from online services and possibly deny any warranty claims if you bricked it yourself by mistake, but they don't make your device a paper weight.
Sony may not do it, the same way Nintendo might not do it either, but both reserve the right to do so
Edit: If you take a look at the PLAYSTATION®5 SYSTEM SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT under "6. VIOLATION OF AGREEMENT; TERMINATION OF RIGHTS AND SIE INC REMEDIES", one of the possible actions they may take states:
disabling use of this PS5 system online or offline
