Right, so you armchair lawyer about how you have all these rights, but when it’s pointed out you don’t actually have them you’re just in favor of having those rights.
Nintendo spends a lot of money creating that content and we like that. That’s why we have created a framework that allows them to make money out of that investment. We limit your right to do whatever you want so they can make money.

No I was talking first about the rights to emulation, romhacks and mods. Those are perfectly legal right now, there's no ambiguity, whatever Nintendo thinks on this subject doesn't matter and their opinion doesn't have any value. > Nintendo spends a lot of money creating that content and we like that.

I'm sure Nintendo is doing fine financially selling those games, you don't need to worry about that.
- tinus_hn 4y agoWell, then you have nothing to fear, just ignore Nintendos supposedly empty threats and see how well your arguments do in the courtroom. Be sure to tell the judge not to worry about Nintendos financial situation and that you think they are making enough!
- realusername 4y agoWell that's the real life for you, your rights have to be defended to exist and the justice system isn't democratic.
- tinus_hn 4y agoBe sure to let us know in advance when the fight is on, so we can order popcorn!
- realusername 4y agoThere's always fights against those large bully companies to apply your rights going on, everybody is impacted one way or another. Even if you don't care about your rights, somebody always does and helps the overall community.
- tinus_hn 4y agoA never ending stream of glacially paced courtroom drama, compounded with armchair lawyers opining on Internet forums. Oh joy!
- realusername 4y agoWhat's better, armchair lawyers arguing for the common good or armchair lawyers arguing to leave all their rights to a megacorp to essentially not hurt the megacorp feelings?
- tinus_hn 4y agoYou are getting quite delusional. You do not possess the monopoly on deciding what is ‘the common good’. And once you see that you might also see why your armchair lawyering looks so ridiculous. Just rehashing some shallow, obvious and tired ideas that don’t work in the real world, have never went anywhere and will never go anywhere doesn’t actually improve the world.
