I started emulating Switch this year and played Breath of the Wild for the first time on Yuzu through with 130 hours. And I’m proud of it.

Which is amazing considering the new Zelda’s are dog shit compared to their predecessors.

Question for those that do: do you also pirate indie games? I am also inclined to just pirate Nintendo games as I already do on my 2DS, but I’d kinda feel bad about not giving money to actually good developers like Supergiant Games

Edit: Not sure about the downvotes. I’m asking a genuine question

Most indie games are priced properly. I buy a lot of my titles, but Nintendo has a bad habit of never dropping the price of their titles.

Yea no doubt. Do you usually buy games on sale or full retail price?

Piracy is a literally victimless crime. Definitely support indie devs if you can afford it, but no one should feel guilty for downloading and running software.

I was recently thinking about buying a Switch since I wanted to play a couple Nintendo games, but after this most recent bit of bullshit they’re pulling, in conjunction to all their other bullying, im not buying another Nintendo product again. Why would I support this shit company.

Just get a Steam Deck, install EmuDeck, and run Ryujinx or Yuzu. It runs like a dream on the SD. Like it literally runs better than the actual Switch, with options like unlocked frame rates, mods, and cheats.

I say this as someone who owns two Switches: Just get a Steam Deck instead.

Emulator on Steamdeck is unironically the best way to play Switch games. I say this as the owner of multiple Switches.

I skipped the new Zelda for this kind of shit.

I have owned every title since the late 80s, purchased limited edition games when possible, limited consoles, etc.

I’m done.

It bums me out. This wasn’t hurting Nintendo. It isn’t like someone will load up Garry’s Mod and decide, “well, gee wiz, I guess I don’t ever have to buy a Nintendo title again!” It wasn’t hurting them at all.

This move right here has cemented it for me. I am done with Nintendo. I have purchased every console they’ve ever made in my lifetime, stating when my parents got me the NES. I won’t be buying any more. I’ll find something else for my children to grow up with and later be nostalgic about.

I haven’t played on my Switch or really touched in in a few months now, since around the Yuzu news. I’m too disgusted by them to want to do it, and shortly before that, I had decided to mod it and not buy their games again. Now I’m 100% certain I’m going to do that. If I really want to give money to some indie game I like, I’ll buy it on Steam.
