Nintendo has a huge track record of anti-consumer practices.
From Copyright Striking youtube channels that show gameplay from their games, to completely nuking smash melee tournaments from orbit for no reason.
Nintendo is a bad company that makes good games.

    Nintendo is the gaming equivalent to Disney to me. Pioneers in their respective mediums of entertainment, with the ability to create some of the most well designed, creative, and magical experiences possible through a massive lineup of iconic and beloved characters. But on the other hand, they constantly stomp down on passionate fans trying to understand and appreciate their work, have scummy and greedy market practices, have next to no interest in preserving important parts of their legacies, and don't get me started on that really recent bullshit. I'm still amazed that there are people that throw themselves in the crossfire for faceless billion-dollar corporations like these. I will always love what Nintendo has done for the games industry and what their games stand for, but you can love something and still point out its faults, because that means you care about them and want them to get better. They certainly have plenty of room to improve, and I hope they realize how to before it's too late.

    Nintendo and Disney are both basically IP trolls at this point, hoarding "intellectual property" so they don't have to innovate much. We desperately need to reform IP law not just in America, but worldwide. Honestly, we need to go back to 28 year terms (or shorter than that) for copyright. Nintendo, Disney, and other corporations are certainly the worst offenders, but even if we take huge corporations out of the equation, these long terms fly in the face of the spirit of intellectual property law--the grandkids of innovators can profit for doing nothing, all in the interest, ironically, of promoting innovation.

All while claiming anyone who puts the game on a real cart is violating Nintendo and his copyright which is funny because he can not actually copyright his hack because it is Nintendos code.

    My opinion on emulation is pretty simple. If you already own the game it's OK. If the original publisher of the game is not selling the game anymore or not selling a console it can be played on anymore, it is OK. Which, well, I will say melee 100% falls under. I genuinely think this is the most fair rule for emulation.

    Nintendo been this way as far back as the 80s where they had a huge iron grip over third-party support where not only they force the third license companies to make only 5 games a year for the NES but also told any gaming stores that if they sell any unlicensed Nintendo games they would stop sending them any more Nintendo items. That's why very little third license games on Sega Master System and killed Atari 7800 to a point Atari was making unofficial NES games under the TENGEN label games. This also the main reason that many third-party companies jump ship for the Sony PS1 over the N64 and never look back at Nintendo the same way again.

    tbf, Nintendo has a reputation for shitting on fans. Whenever someone's making a fan project, they shut it down. Ironically, this actually happened with several Roblox games. A good few years back, there were these free to play Roblox games called Project Pokemon and Pokemon brick Bronze, which were basically just 3D Pokemon games on Roblox. Of course, Nintendo caught wind of their existence, and had the creators of the games shut them down. Same thing happened with a Pokemon fangame called Pokemon Uranium, which was available for free on Gamejolt, until (You guessed it) Nintendo found out about it and pulled the plug. It's sort of widespread knowledge that if you even so much as try to create a fangame or emulate an old game of theirs, they'll come down on you with extreme cruelty, and will accept no compromise. To them, you either pay them for their games and consoles, regardless of how old they are, or you don't get anything

    I was a Nintendo player a long time ago. They began their shit a long time ago. I no longer buy their consoles. I refuse to touch their games. I avoid Nintendo like the plague. I simply don't want to support that company directly or indirectly. I even refuse to play Nintendo games with friends when they want to. Heck, I even won't play Nintendo games with my sister's kids. Sure they can play them. But I won't join them. I'm not forcing them not to. I'm just... not interested. If they want me to join them in games on the sofa, make it any other console. Just not Nintendo. They quickly learned this even though I haven't told them. They figured out that I'm "boring" when the Nintendo console is on but not if any of their other consoles is on (Xbox, PlayStation). They don't know I'm an active Nintendo refuser. They just figured that I love playing with em when it's not Nintendo. They haven't asked me why yet and It'll remain that way. Once they ask why and are old enough to understand national economy I'll explain. Until then they can enjoy their Nintendo fun in their own way. I'm not taking that away from them.

    Nintendo has actually partnered and sponsored smash tournaments before and it actually never really did anything to increase prize money for the players or the quality of the event (Genesis 7 being the first that comes to mind). Melee players say they actually hate when Nintendo sponsors their tournaments because it means Nintendo will inforce rules that actively make the experience worse such as not letting players use USF or emulate it on Wii for a more stable experience and quality on monitors. They just use it as free advertising and to make it seem like they care but they actually don't.

This is the same company that turned down Sony's proposition for a partnership (creating their biggest market rival), the same company that laughed in the faces of Microsoft when they proposed buying them out, and the same company that overreacts if anyone dares to talk about their IP's in any medium they don't have direct control of. Sometimes they've done amazing things and set many trends in the industry, and other times their own hubris has almost been their downfall - and could be again in the future.

    Online in games (im pretty sure) is entirely implemented by the developer and it's on them to set up servers for it which is one of the reasons its ridiculous to need to pay to play online, but it means if a game has bad online, that's a problem with the game's online servers, not the platform because "xbox live" for example now is basically just the term used for the subscription because if you're not playing a Microsoft developed game, the online could be hosted by the developer, or any hosting company.

    "Nintendo is a bad company that makes good games". Hit the nail on the head with that one. Their hardware is pretty good as well (not in technical capacity, but in actually satisfying the needs it is presented for). They are the most customers-disrespecting gaming company though, and that is an astonishing achievement considering that there are a lot greedier companies in terms of lootboxes, microtransactions etc. Wish there wasn't such a "choose your own poison" mentality necessary when it comes to big gaming brands, tbh. Would recommend the Switch Lite to anyone looking for a good mobile indie machine, though, that is what is worth encouraging.

    Something else that Nintendo changed due to use of their brand was SuperMarioLogan. I think it was early 2020 or 2021, but im not sure. Nintendo had sued SuperMarioLogan for use of their characters, and they had to change all the plushies, thumbnails and the channel appearance. It was shortened to SML, the plushies were replaced with puppets and some of the characters are so different I couldn't even recognise some of them. Mario changed to Marvin, Rosalina changed to Rose, Toad changed to Lil T (i think) and Black Yoshi changed too, but I forgot what they changed his name to. That's all I know for now though...

    Man I'm so glad you made this video. I really love so many nintendo IPs but with the age of the switch I just hate them as a company and refuse to support them, and spread word of their anti-consumer practices as much as I can. I can't get over how much it hurts that for example as much as I love the zelda and splatoon IPs I will never be able to enjoy playing them again because of the lack if accessibility options provided by nintendo. Nintendo doesn't make a version of the switch to cater to the part of their audience that wants a higher end stationary experience over a low powered more restricted mobile one, and before it can be said that that's not what the switch was built upon they've had 6 years to create variants and or improve upon the switches design. However nintendo still hasn't taken any action to include the vast majority of the gaming world into their games, so until nintendo grows up as a company and stops being a greedy, anti-consumer, backwards company I'll just sit here in sadness at all the opportunities nintendo doesn't take to improve themselves as a company.

By the end of 2014, pewds had over 33 million subs. Even if only 0.1% of his subscriber base bought a Wii U, that's still over 300 000 consoles.
