    He didn’t just use the product he paid for in a way that doesn’t hurt anybody, he sold pirated Nintendo Switch games. This is literally at the start of the article.

    It then becomes very easy to say he took revenue from Nintendo (the “they wouldn’t have bought it if it cost money” argument doesn’t apply), but above all selling pirated material is a shitty thing to do.

        Definitely. It’s not even about defending Nintendo.

        I hate people who try to profit off of privacy when piracy is available for free.

        It reminds me of my university days when people would be selling PDFs of course textbooks…just email a copy of the file!
