Most the time the only hackers who actually get attacked by the major companies like Nintendo are the people who try to allow piracy specifically or try to make profit off of the mod.
Regardless if someone makes a product of it.
All exploits, mods, hacks always lead to piracy, how its one of the first things to come from it.
Regardless if you pay for it or not, they all allow piracy, thats exactly why everyone is here and following and using atmos.
You all hate sxos simply because your not only too cheap to buy your games, you now hate it because you have a free option to play free games.
And folk can try sugar coat shit all they like, too old and seen it all for before, as soon as a free option comes out, little ones will slate the hackers that found the exploit and why not risk your bollocks on the line and try make money out of it.
End of the day as proven here, they take a massive risk by sharing their work, just so cheap skates dont have to buy their games.
Then we see the same n00bs slate hackers for not finding anything new for the unhackable consoles or beg practically day one when next gen consoles come out, wanting a jailbreak... God when these n00bs keep using this term annoys me, there is no such thing as jailbreak and hasnt been since the ps3.
But yea, we even had one newbie on here, signed up and litrally slated all the hackers for not been able to find a working exploit for the new switch models to let them play backups, then followed up with he will wait for talented hackers that know what they're doing.
Everyone can slate sx all they like, for this very brief moment, they remain the only ones to have brought you a working exploit for the new switch consoles, which yet remains future proof as it cant be blocked until nintendo revise the hardware again.
Hmmmm its this crap that makes them thing stfu we owe you fuck all, while we take the risk of been caught.
Even if its a free service, ill be surprised if those behind atmos isn't going to be next in nintendos sights.
I say ill show my respects to Gary, he and xcuter did us all good for many years, I really feel sorry for the very harsh punishment nintendo have slapped him with, I feel for max if and when he gets his punishment and same for cheng if they catch him.
But I do think 14million on one person is fucking harsh, seems like Gary is taking the punishment for the entire crew of xcuter and dont like the fact nintendo was able to bring other consoles into the hearing that had fuck all to do with nintendo, so why and how should they profit claiming damages, if sony or ms wanted to, then they should take this up, if not, then it should be dismissed.
But hey ho, nintendo focus more on finding who they can sue in courts than they do focusing on making decent fucking consoles that are old cheap crap and making new games rather than recycling the same crap all of the time.
Dont get me wrong, if your a fan and you love playing the same shit, they sure, thats your thing.
But to say since they launched, they just get lazier as they know they have the loyal fan base.
Notice over time how gaming and games have changed, yet nintendo dont, well, not until they release a new console to get old ports of the third party games they always lack first time round.
And we all know the real reason behind releasing inferior hardware with gimmicks, not only is it cheaper for them and have a higher profit return if it doesn't flop like the wii u, and yea sorry nintendo, we gamers are not as stupid as you think and blamed the failure on us gamers not knowing it was a new console and you thought we thought it was a wii addon, you failed because we have been there and done that with the ps3/360, you just wanted to try steal a slice of the tablet market.
But in releasing inferior hardware you restrict and limit these third parties from releasing their new aaa titles and limit them to porting its old titles thus leaving the market open to your games.
We have seen this over and over and to keep lying and promising better third party support is getting boring now.
Anyway Gary, thank you for the service you and tx have provided us gamers and homebrew community for all these years.
Unfortunately I think this is the end of the road, unless future consoles are able to have people put their necks on the line releasing free exploits, we wont be seeing anyone else releasing anything anymore.
Nintendo have pretty much put an end to this scene now and confident no one else will fill the void or risk Nintendo hunting them down if they did, fear now is how long will atmos and its github remain before they target them.
Maybe nintendo should follow the likes of Microsoft and let gamers have the option to enable homebrew, as proven, gamers respected this and are happy with been able to use the service for "homebrew" that hasn't then lead to piracy..... tho apparently something was in the works coming from tx.
