Hacking Question Why is Ninty so trigger happy with the ban hammer

[Paulsar99]

tbf sony and ms were already pretty strict last gen when it comes to online with cfw, nintendo just played catch up.

They aren't though? People were getting banned left and right for a short while, but in the past year, there's been like nothing. They didn't even try to ban people around the launch of Pokemon Sword/Shield, which I thought would have been the perfect time to whip out the banhammer.

Its probably just people getting more cautious with tools like emunand. I think Nintendo has limited incentive to chase down people who aren't playing their hacked/pirated stuff in a potentially online environment.

Also gamefreak being lazy as usual when it comes to trading hacked pokemon.

Not that cautious, I saw multiple people on here that admitted to cheating in Pokemon by genning mons and trading/using them online.
