If they would argue like that, they would lose every court. At least in Europe.
Think what you want, but consumer right-to-use laws outweigh any "company policy". A great example is the "warranty void if seal broken" case that was just over-ruled.
Only except Jailbreaking a Game Console, is right now, still Against the law.
Go to court you will lose, and even then you won't go to court, you couldn't afford to take them to court lol.
Also if your kid shorted pins, that is accidental damage and your problem not theirs.
That's like saying I'm going to sue Samsung because I broke my phone's screen. Where do you people come up with this stuff?
Furthermore, Nintendo can ban you from online for no reason at all, it's their service, and it's in their TOS, nothing any court can do about that.

Dunno, I never got problems. I often root devices and got rejected by the manufacturer (f*ck you Samsung with your eFuse shit).
Then just go where you bought it and claim “Gewährleistung” (is there an English word for that?)
It’s something similar to warranty, just against the seller instead of the manufacturer
Never had problems so far

Well ya that could work, if they don't check it out, and you bought it recently enough. However what would that solve? You would get another to have it banned as well.
You guys need to get it through your heads, you got lucky with the 3DS, most consoles with CFW cannot go online ever again, the switch will be the same way, make your choice. Or buy 2, hack one and not the other.
