      I once read, "Microsoft's biggest competitor for their latest Windows, is their previous Windows". If Nintendo did what their customers are asking for, the customers would probably buy those legacy games and then not buy the newer ones. I wish this isn't true though, great games are great games no matter their release date, yeah?

      @@doko3000 This is probably an extra sensitive concern for Nintendo - their whole business model is "Keep making the same handful of games over and over and over again, charge full price each time, hope the minor changes are enough to please fans without being major enough to make them uncomfortable by dragging them too far from the comfort zone we've trained them to enjoy". So from a corporate perspective, it "makes sense" that they would do this disgusting thing.

      I feel the problem with Nintendo goes beyond just the company and is really an unfortunate consequence of Japanese work culture. With how elitist many corporations there are, i wouldn’t be surprised if most people making these decisions are out of touch with newer business strategies, most likely because they’ve held those positions for so long that newer ideas where never given a chance to surface through new hires.

      I worked for a Japanese manufacturer for 7 years and what you're saying is basically on the money. You can clearly tell that you're getting reamed by the competition because they're trying new things, and the people at the top of your company have the attitude "it always worked great this way and it still does," and no one in Japan has the temerity to tell them otherwise because they are "senior." Never mind anyone outside of Japan, who may as well be dogs playing poker to the Japanese.@@Samookely

      How does “piracy hurt” if the product you’re pirating is officially discontinued and there is literally no other way to access the content? Who is it hurting when I run an emulation of Paper Mario? Obvs like don’t pirate smaller indie projects or things going to a good cause, but this is a multi billion dollar corporation that is letting media become lost completely. Piracy is ironically doing more to preserve the media than the corporation itself

      There was a big controversy a few years ago where Nintendo was found to be selling pirated games on their own platform. I don't remember the exact details, but a well known ROM creator's signature was found in an eshop game. Normally, these ROMs will include the creator's logo or signature during startup alongside the official ones, but some less ethical ROM makers will take someone else's work, remove their logo and replace it with their own to take credit. To counter this, some of the faster creators might edit minor details later in the game to prove that they were the original creator. Something like changing a minor NPC's dialog or similar. Turns out one of the "official" Virtual Console games on the eshop contained one of those signatures buried late in the game. Nintendo, in all their infinite wisdom, had stolen a pirated ROM, ripped the logo out, and uploaded it to their shop without credit and charged for it. Obviously, there couldn't be a lawsuit over it because the work was "stolen" in the first place, but that was a few months before all the online stuff for wii and ds went offline, so there was probably more.

      In the US the justice system basically relies on "case law"
      Not specifically laws that are passed, but how they've been interpreted by the public and courts.
      Basically you could risk it and fight the lawsuit in court and argue it's been abandoned and should lose it's protection and be in the public domain.
      If you win that makes it easier for the next suit to get the same results, etc. Until eventually abandoned software becomes public domain as soon as it's abandoned.

      Tbh, now that Smash and Animal Crossing are pretty much done with content, I think we can finally focus on criticizing Nintendo with their lack of both communication and legacy content. Emplemon's video on the whole ordeal summarizes it completely. Once we find a way to rally against their business decisions, all they have to do is shake some shinny keys in our faces and then we forget those decisions ever even happened in the first place, but fortunately for us, Nintendo is running out of excuses to make. I wouldn't be surprised if they found a way around it though. At the very least I'm happy that they aren't going in the next-gen route and making every new game they make 70$, still should be at least 40$or 50$ though, especially with the remakes and remasters.

      @@neil9431 Nintendo has gotten into a really bad habit of saying "fuck the old fans" over the years and only caring about new fans. It's part of why in addition to piracy, (because let's face it most of the people going out of their way to play older games are those with nostalgia for them), romhacks and fan games of Nintendo properties are constantly on the rise, since most modern games from them lack the polish or feel of the older ones.
      Take a look at pokemon for example, where there's a ton of great fangames based around older styles that recieve a ton of love from the community, yet Nintendo constantly tries to nuke most of them while simultaneously churning out lazy broken messes with horrible balancing issues and lacking basic features.
      Nintendo is actively creating fans who want better from them, or want classic games and experiences, while punishing those fans for seeking it out or making it themselves.
      EDIT: Honestly a great solution that Nintendo would never even remotely entertain, is offering to pay the makers of popular fan games to make it an official release with a bit more polish, rather than threatening to sue them for their hard work.

      I buy games on Steam and pirate the Switch version. If there's not a Steam (or other PC seller) version, that's not my problem. Both Steam and the Nintendo eShop take 30% cuts of all games they sell, but at least Steam gives me in-game online features, chat, a good UI, and decent ways to organize my library.
      Really, I _want_ to support game developers! But I won't give 30% of my purchases to a company that won't sell their own games to people that want them, and that DMCAs the entirety of soundtracks for games that _they have never published a soundtrack for._
      Seriously - any time an uploader of the song from their games gets too big, they destroy the whole channel. Happened to GiIvaSunner and Brawl BRSTM3x. But (as an example) they have never published a full soundtrack to any of their Paper Mario games (except 64). I guess they want me to carry a Wii and TV around if I want to listen to a song from Super Paper Mario.
      Nintendo often makes great games, but they seem to think that their fans will put up with all their BS, and I'm not participating in that.

      It's the morally right thing to do to pirate a game if the devs/publishers(like Nintendo for example) completely refuse to retail the product at all. or for example, if a dev releases their game with a DRM like Denuvo that has provably caused performance and stability issues in games, causing pirated games to run BETTER than whatever game you bought for 60 bucks.
