  Nintendo evaporating community goodwill by using our money to take aggressive action against supposed piracy enablers makes it easy to justify actual piracy.

    What amount of goodwill Nintendo burns away is more than made up for by them continuing to make good games. I am confident that there is quite literally nothing they can do as a company to hurt their reputation enough to be fiscally damaging, save from actually making bad games. And even that doesn't seem to be an impediment to them (see also: the Pokemon mainline games). They'd have to have a string of probably 10 consecutive years putting out absolute dogshit before they'd get even close to feeling the pain.

  So because you can't pirate you won't buy? Why should Nintendo care? Not like they would've made money on you anyways. I'm sure your kids appreciate your moral stronghold when you explain to them why they can't play Mario with their friends.

    No, I won't buy because I find their current (and past) actions morally reprehensible. If they didn't do shit like this I would already have (more) of their games and consoles. I can still emulate the games even if they don't do this you know? It doesn't stop a motivated actor actor after all.
