I've been watching lots of Plug and Play videos, as well as Famiclones videos, and started wondering this next question...
If Nintendo hates piracy, and they do not allow piracy on their systems, why won't they sue big companies that sells such Pirate consoles, like Walmart and uh... the shopping channel, and magazines, etc?

If Nintendo is so strict with their policies, to the point of even suing a company for digitized Joysticks, why won't they just do the same with such companies that makes, ships, and sells Piracy?

  1. You don't have to quote the FP, especially if yours is the first reply.
  2. You quoted the FP, but didn't even say anything that has to do with it.
  3. TAKE A WILD GUESS, BUDDY...

Because there are about a billion and a half (probably more) famiclones and crap. A few are good (Bittboy is pretty cool), most are not, and some are pretending to be something they aren't. But, there are so many, it would be a waste of time and money to sue them. Plus, they aren't that big, the max amount of money you could squeeze out of them probably wouldn't cover however much it costs to make a lawsuit and stuff.

I like how most of the discussion here is not even related to the topic at hand.
Also, what's Master Chef?

I just read your response, and then, why DO they sue small designers and publishers, cancels Fan Projects and sends C&D to everyone else?
Is not a real question, is just to point out how unfair it is for some solo developers, and how unfair it is for people that hacks their systems.

Master Chief is a person, who is in charge of a cooking place or in charge of a restaurant.
Su-Chief in the other hand, is the person in charge when the Master Chief is not around.
Also, it could be refering to the tv show: "Master Chief"

Third party accessories count as piracy?

I suppose, if they get mad at the use of unlicensed software, why they won't do the same to unlicensed hardware AND software.

    That Dell data breach is worse than people probably realize....

    I personally handled a call from the second highest person at Raytheon. That call bothered me a lot... The guy was nice and smart what bothered me was the way management basically just blew him off instead of going the extra mile to help him.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    In the end that call ended up costing Dell millions in lost contracts with Raytheon, and really the issue could have been solved for like 450 bucks lol

    sometimes I wonder why anyone would ever buy mega man x legacy collection 2

    I always thought that capcom shuffled the games in these collection, but apparently they are all in chronological order, which makes legacy collection 2 worthless
