WTF - Rest in peace… I hope no one has to pay any legal fees. Wish you all the best!

Well, just to the next. Hope Nintendo wastes more money on legal.
Well it’s probably cheaper than to innovate on the hardware front (display, performance, Joy-Cons, etc.) . And since they have an insane amount of money, it think they can keep doing this for quite some time…
Their innovation on that end is going to the electronics warehouse with a box and getting the cheapest things you can get…
I mean it’s easy to shit on the switch now that it’s a 7 year old console, and don’t get me wrong the joycon drift is fuckin ridiculous, but the switch was kinda impressive when it came out.

Ahh yess they could easily have produced something equivalent to a product introduced 5 years later. It was literally the most powerful handheld of all time when it came out and had almost double the graphics processing power of the Xbox 360 and ps3 with the dock, and still more than either without it. Could it compete with the ps4 and Xbox One? Absolutely not. Precisely because of the form factor. To think otherwise is hilarious. I do think their addition of all the random bullshit nobody uses that drives up price was dumb.
Also, every time Nintendo makes a cutting edge box-console to directly compete with Microsoft and Sony they just lose sales, so why even try?

It’s basically just an Android tablet with shitty controllers on each side and some proprietary OS. The only thing that makes the Switch special are the exclusive Nintendo games.
You’ve basically described all gaming consoles lol
The one thing that impresses me about consoles though: How tf do they manage to run even graphics-intensive games on such low-end hardware? I mean sure, frame rates aren’t great, but the fact that these games still run and are somehow playable amazes me.
I think it’s because they’re targeting a very small number of devices as opposed to the infinite number of possible combinations of hardware a computer could have.
Right, that makes sense
It was underpowered when it came out and didn’t introduce anything their other consoles didnt already have (nor have I ever seen someone use half the features).
What’s really impressive is the devs making games for it, showing off how much the mobile gaming market is holding us back by making Candy Crush Soda Ultra Supermax
I don’t remember undocking my PS4 to play it on the go.
But you may have with your Gameboy, gameboy advanced, Ds, dsi, dsiXL, 2ds, 3ds, wiiu, PSP, or PSP vita.
And if you consider a portable HDMI output important, laptops and phones could do this probably half a decade before the switch came out
You can’t compare Wii U because it has to be super close to the console and not all games could be played on the game pad. Unless the Vita had HDMI output then this was definitely a new feature of game consoles. Maybe you can compare NetBooks to the Switch if you’re being generous but laptops and phones are a totally different form factor.
I remember a lot of problems on launch
The switch was never actually good, it was just the first actual handheld after the PSP. From a technical perspective it was at best mediocre. Although the reintroduction of the handheld after it basically failed with the PSP (wich was great for its tech level but still not good enough) was well done, the actual performance of the product was not good. The stick drift was just the cherry on top.
It is almost a zero cost. They already have the legal-ish ruling. It is just filling out a form letter and sending it out.
Still a lawyer doing it. If everyone ads a repo every day, they would waste a lot of funds on fighting against windmills.
You don’t need a lawyer to file a DMCA request. You just need to be ready to get one if someone disputes it.
And Nintendo almost definitely have lawyers on retainer, if not in house. The added cost of this is the effort it takes to search github for “uzu” and send an email.
Technically you don’t, but they are still used.
They almost certainly have in house legal teams and those lawyers are salaried.
No they usually use big international lawyer firms. Or at least thats what i got from them.
who distributes ROMs on Discord. I guess most emulators will be fine.
