      I feel like the people saying this now aren’t going to follow through and will buy future Nintendo products. If this behavior was a deal breaker for you then you would already be boycotting Nintendo.

        Well, given that the last game I officially bought by Nintendo was Metroid Prime Dread (because I really really want that franchise to regain its former glory, same with F-Zero) and that also after a year or so of not buying anything new. Yeah I was kinda in a soft boycott already.

            So in other words you were already boycotting them, and nothing has changed due to this lawsuit.

        Depends on the person really. I’ve been a sailor all my life, and the only times I’ve bought games was when I bought some physical disc games for my ps4, so it really depends on the person.

          Yet people keep buying their outdated console and paying for Nintendo online with terrible service.

            Because people think that Nintendo deserves that money and pirating is unfair and wrong. In a vacuum, they do make good games that are worth the money but with all the shit they’re pulling, they’re basically abusing the law and their power as a huge company to force people to do what they want. That’s why, in my eyes, it’s only fair to pirate their stuff. If they’re gonna play unfair, so am I. There’s a huge chunk of people who aren’t that well informed on what Nintendo’s doing and why it’s wrong, who don’t want to do something illegal or who just want the convenience tho.
