This, as well as vilifying emulation (despite admitting that legal emulation exists), patenting basic game mechanics, and cracking down on a charity, have shown me that Nintendo is just pure evil.

They go after emulation because all the times they tried to go after debugging tools used to dump roms and copy games, they lost. Even if they win their arguments against emulation, it wouldn’t stop the process of copying the game just the part where you could play it. And then it would also bite them in the ass because they themselves use emulation to continue to sell you shit from the 80’s.
What.
You buy a new switch, log into your account, and download them. Or put your physical games into the new Switch.
You’re describing every console ever, but blaming Nintendo specifically. Why?
because they’d rather blame a company they never liked anyway than admit the problem is systemic
Isn’t this referring to the progress you have made in a specific video game?
Im going to ignore you sounding like a Nintendo rep and say that I think the poster assumes your account is locked to the console itself, which after I just checked (because that would be crazy if that was the case) is not the case but that console is considered a ‘primary console’ and that designation would have to be transferred to a different one in the event your current one breaks. I don’t think the OP knows this (and as I don’t own one myself, i didn’t initially either)

Corporation wants all your money and do no work for it. What a shocker.
I just bought a switch 2 and it just transferred all my switch 1 games over without even asking me

because they actually did well with music.
I don’t even know what the fuck this is referring to
In addition to what else she said, (depending on the service) you can just download an actual music file and copy it onto as many drives as you like, almost like you own it or something. This is how video and games should work also, especially with regard to lack of exclusivity.
What are you talking about? I have had YouTube Music, Spotify and Deezer… none allow you to download music you can copy elsewhere.
YouTube Music allows you to dowload the song you uploaded to it (but you already owned all that so they are not giving you any favours) and the rest allow to download encrypted, DRM protected files which you can only play on their apps… certainly not copy them to as many drives as we like
You can buy DRM-free music files from various services including Bandcamp, Amazon, and iTunes.
As far as I know, the three you mentioned are streaming services only with no option for purchase.
Bandcamp, yes (I think)… Amazon or iTunes, no. There are guides on how to remove them but you are “pirating” as per their worthless rules
As far as I know, the three you mentioned are streaming services only with no option for purchase.
Yes, and streaming services is what I thought we were talking about
Music purchases are DRM-free on both services. The guides are referring to local downloads while subscribed to Amazon’s streaming service, which are DRM-protected as you’re only renting them.

It’s the same on every platform.
It’s definitely not, there are differences… but I see what you were referring to here.
I would still not say they “did it well” because streaming is literally killing the music industry and the artists are getting shafted hard by them. However, I understand your comment about not going for exclusivity (for the most part)
The good guys at Nintendo all retired. It’s being run by a venture capital guy now.
