I've been doing modchip installs for friends for a while now, and as a recent electronics engineering graduate with the job market the way it is, I was hoping to make a little bit of extra cash by offering installs as a service. I know Nintendo is extremely litigious when it comes to modchips. (Before the hwfly chips were on the market, Nintendo swiftly took down my eBay listing selling MOSFETs for the picofly mod :rofl:) Does anyone here have any experience dealing with Nintendo in the UK in this regard? I've read that they quickly take down listings on sites like etsy and eBay, so I've set up my own website where I plan on offering the service. If Nintendo are unable to take it down, how likely am I to face legal trouble? Do they have any basis for legal action in the UK, like they have in the US with the DMCA?
 
If your turnaround hits £100k+ then they'd probably take notice but if it's just the odd few you'd be too small fry.

Do it but try and keep it fairly quiet. Definitely only take cash.
 
I'd be more worried about Kiers coming to take away your AC first.
