Another lawsuit centered around copyright infringement ends in success for Nintendo. The company claimed that Ryan Daly ran the Modded Hardware storefront and sold the Mig Switch. Previously, Nintendo shut down the Yuzu emulator developer Tropic Haze and websites hosting ROM files.
I’ve been to multiple museums in Japan (which is somewhat relevant because Nintendo is Japanese) that either flat out ban all photography (e.g. Ghibli Museum, Aomori Museum of Modern Art) or have some exhibits that you’re not allowed to take pictures of (e.g. Tokyo National Museum). One exhibit I wanted to take a picture of had a “no photography” sticker on it, but it was on the opposite side from where I approached so I didn’t see it, causing staff to run up to me when I pulled out my phone to point out the sign.
I’ve also heard from other tourists that “no photos” seems to be rather common there.
Btw, I’m not at all saying that they’re justified at all, just saying that there are indeed places that forbid photos for copyright reasons. In my opinion, no photo would ever match seeing the exhibits in person so it is entirely pointless to ban them. Even professional, official scans of pieces don’t come close.
Current Japan is the literal definition of a corporate hellscape. The only place that is more controlled by cabals is South Korea. They don’t even view Cabal as a negative term there (officially, I recognize that the citizenry are not that stupid).
