UPDATE 2.50pm UK: "Nintendo UK has now confirmed to Eurogamer it will not be present at this summer’s Gamescom. The company’s statement is below:
“Gamescom is a great event, and each year we evaluate whether Nintendo should participate or not,” a Nintendo UK spokesperson told Eurogamer. “After careful consideration from all perspectives, we’ve made the decision not to be present at gamescom 2024. Players will have opportunities to try out Nintendo Switch games at other events throughout the year.”
Nintendo is asshoe anyway. Nobodi like nintendoofus.
Is the “nintendo” community not about Nintendo??? Why would i go to another community that is unrelated to nintendo, to complain about the disgusting and destructive company that Nintendo is?
Same with them but they are not nearly as well known for their scummy behaviour and going after harmless projects.
Aside from hyper-aggressive protection of their IP to try to stop piracy, I legit can’t think of any scummy behavior Nintendo does that other game companies don’t do at either an equal or worse level. That includes MS and Sony.
EDIT: Further, emulation of a current-gen console may technically be legal depending on how you do it, but it’s not harmless. Some can/will use it in an essentially harmless way, but you and I know that the vast majority of users will use it to enable piracy.
