Although the Switch doesn't have region lock and your games are finally tied to your NNID.
Technically, games are tied to NNIDs on Wii U and 3DS (as of 7.0) as well. What's more useful is the fact that you can move a single Nintendo Account from a Switch to another without doing a full System Transfer or calling Nintendo. (Saves can't be transferred... yet.)

Still not quite as good as Steam allowing multiple systems to log in with the same account, but getting there.

Everyone these days has a smartphone, use that for your movies.

Of course, but what I'm waiting for is emulators since Nintendo's doing a shitty job handling the VC. I see nothing wrong with emulators personally. Or media apps, and my phone isn't that great for viewing media.

This program and the eFuse protection is going to be a mess.

They're going to hide small changes in what can trigger bricking your console with each small update and the more that hackers give them information, the more they can counter-hide a kill switch for someone unaware to accidentally hit.

Ohh dumb pirates and their limited knowledge of how things work.
Hilarious ;'D

You belong on the wall of shame OP and anyone who agrees with OP.
Nintendo set this program up to prevent code leaks which result in piracy.
Nintendo is literally the only company plagued with piracy.

Nintendo has all the right to defend their product by setting up bounties like this.
I greet those people who bring their finding to Ninty as heroes!

Since when does Nintendo incorporate eFuses in their hardware?

At this point you aren't even arguing. Money doesn't fall from trees, and I just proved your argument/point wrong, now you are resorting to being edgy.
Because it's kinda useless to rant with a dude which repeats himself over 2 pages. jesus.

PS4 has piracy. Might not be disc based, but it sure as shit has piracy, and it's not all that hard to do.

Since the Switch. This is confirmed.

My non-existent soul that I already gave up to make shitty arguments disappear.
If you really desperate after homebrews there is Android Sticks pretty cheap on Ebay.
Homebrew will come eventually. If Derrek and the other find hardware defect again, it will be the 3DS all over.

Homebrew was never illegal, that's why I think it's stupid.
The reason companys don't like homebrew is because those companys have licences that they want you to pay. It's like why back then Nintendo tried to sell unlicensed games, except now, we're the people trying to give people games even though they didn't pay for actually giving those games.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty there is health behaviour you can add to your character, then to use a health bar is lil more complicated, google n watch a few tutorial video on it, be too hard to explain here.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the character has the health behavior
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I know you have to create a health and health max variable. Then there is a calculation you use in code to subtract width size of the health bar. Google few vids.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the "greenflatbar" is one of the preset health bars btw
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you can use any bar/sprite. It will just change the width. Ok good luck and have fun. I'm off to go shoot some pool at the bar. Talk to you later.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, why does the health behavior exist if you can just use a variable?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
