Very right. Its like sending an error report in Windows XP. It will do didly squat.

 

[jan777]

there my only hope is a homebrew solution

seriously they pushed they're own console to the modding scene and homebrew

so why doesn't all of GBA temp just start mass e-mailing Nintendo? There are plenty of users here, and if we each sent an e-mail to NoA, and NoE maybe some person will take a hint.

Honestly in the cat and mouse game of homebrew/hacks, when has the major company ever won? Look at vista right now, I could get a pirate copy and authenticate it on a fake server in china somewhere. If we all just mass e-mail Nintendo telling them that we simply won't update and we will continue to use our non-destructive homebrew, and if they have a problem then they should shove it.

I very much doubt nintendo will listen to us.

 

[jan777]

plus if thier attention is turned to us they might try to do something about *flashcards* and *modding*

 

[TaMs]

It's mostly just business for them. Block importing = get more money from pal areas, since everything is expensive there.
It would be some what useless to use money to release brawl here when everyone has already imported it and playing it with unlicensed freeloader. Or something

 

[skawo96]

Not a chance. All these 'representatives'...what are they doing? They are sitting on chairs and

Spoiler

FARTING

.And they have you in their

Spoiler

ASS

. But they could do something if "legit" people started "compaining" that new 3.3 update don't let them play their Guitar Hero III or Super Mario Galaxy

Or "It removed my Zelda save! It was almost 100%

"

Then just don't update. Don't waste your time e-mailing them... it's not going to change anything. You'll just get a generic copypasta response.

Yeah...but phoning is another thing

To prove Nintendo's messages are just copypaste, I sent them very similiar message to this that was posted first. I'm waiting for response

I'm looking forward to it. I was actually thinking of ringing Nintendo and recording the call, but that may get out of hand. They probably would hang up on me xD.

Anyway, I updated the post with the next reply I got, I'm probably going to make a post and it's about emailing and complainting to Datel about the Freeloader

. That will be VERY interesting.

 

[8BitWalugi]

I was trying to waste THEIR time, I know what they'll send

Good point. I'm not necessary trying to waste their time, but curious of their teams pre-made responses.

BWAHAHA! man these are some of the funniest e-mail responses EVER!
AvEnGeR-X, this was a really good idea. its nice to see how 'big name companies' react to this stuff.
No, but seriously, Flashcarts and Modchips cost these companies alot of money.
Take for example an R4, its a 40 or so dollar thing that cost Nintendo THOUSANDS! So, moral of the story, KEEP ON BUYING THEM!

Yet again, Good job man! look foreward to future replies from Nintendo!
EDIT!
QUOTE(...)you cannot use teh USB drives

What is the point of teh USB drives?!?!?! I mean COME ON MAN!

2nd EDIT! OFF TOPIC!
AvEnGeR-X - Yay! another aussie on a forum I use!

Lol, yes Aussies own. Now, don't hate me, but go the Hawks!
Yep, you get it right

. I did it to see hot 'big companies' react to a stab in the back.

I dont hate you, now i love you even more! in an un-gay way.

 

[skawo96]

Another 'Shut up' message from Nintendo...this was just rude, I know they tested Freeloader if it isn't working.


And, I'm shocked because I get a response! It was that fast!

Ok:

WOOWOW! They changed whole two worlds! SHOCKING!

Also, I cleared other stuff as my message and this garbage like it...

With more and more games, it's become apparent that they're forcing updates or leaving you in the dust.

If you think they're at a loss when you refuse to update, you're only kidding yourself. You're the one that can't play new games or recieve new features.

Just face it, they're doing the best they can to protect their IP, so if you want a way around, it's going to have to come from somewhere else.

GeckOS unlocks the region, doesn't it? Settle with that.

 

[skawo96]

I smell forum war...
OK, teq, you are right. But really there is no reason why someone would to update, so...I'll update when I'll be needed. Look! PAL Brawl have 3.1update!

Wow, all the hostility. You guys are really ruthless.


Not every update is going to be beneficial to you. Look at Microsoft and how many patches they've had for Windows that did nothing for you, but saved them a heap of trouble.

 

[odinfire]

After I read this thread, I wrote Nintendo asking about the Freeloader too. This was their response:

----------------------------------------------------------

Hi,

Please note that the Freeloader is not licensed by Nintendo of America Inc., but since we have recently received so much email regarding the product, we have decided that it would be in our customers best interest to SHUT THE F*** UP ABOUT IT.


WE DONT GIVE A SH** ABOUT YOU OR YOUR POOR AZZ FRIENDS THAT CANT AFFORD TO BUY GAMES. We might also recommend that you stay in school. Once you get out of high school, you can get a job in the realz world and then you will be able to afford our products without the need of hacked devices.

Don't forget, school is cool!


Sincerely,


Peter Waxitoff
Nintendo of America Inc.

I just dont get their hostility.

 

[jan777]

serious?

 

[skawo96]

It was mean to be funny? If so: try again. It's not funny.

serious?

Maybe first part (Without the SHUT F....). But I doubt even it.
