MODERATORS
The team behind Yuzu is different from ReSwitched and Atmosphere, so you were fine either way.
This just means Yuzu agrees to delete their copies of the tools they used and send Nintendo their hacked Switch consoles (probably to be destroyed).
Although the fact that these programs were named means that Nintendo's Eye of Sauron is on them - the extra attention makes me nervous. I definitely would have modded it this weekend if I hadn't already decided to last weekend.
There is no world where these tools exists and Nintendo does not know them. It's not some deep darknet secret lore hidden behind seven-VPN. Anything that happens online about emulation, all the company knows it exists and how it works. The threat never goes away.
I know, but there's a difference between "knows they exist" and "is naming them in legal documentation".
The list of reasons why I refuse to buy Nintendo products is getting pretty hefty at this point.
What else?
Well there's the fact that they're selling switch release titles for full price 7 years later
If they can they will, it's how supply and demand works. It wouldn't work if people stopped paying so much for old games.
Exactly, and OP is saying they've decided to not contribute towards demand anymore
Is it still supply and demand when the supply is infinite?
Yes, if there's no demand there would be no point in making the supply (the game)
We're talking about the prices of games that have already been made though. The supply of those specific games is infinite. We're talking about the prices of certain games (old ones), not all games that are being released now.
I do agree that it makes sense to Nintendo to sell the old games at a high price, but I think supply and demand is probably the wrong phrase.
I'm talking about supply AND demand. If there is infinite supply and zero demand, there would be no point to rerelease these titles. Or they'd bring the price down. This is basic knowledge. If they can get that price for it, they will keep selling it for that price. It's not rocket science.
I'm not defending the price, I've bought plenty and felt dirty doing so lol.
