With the main difference that robbery is illegal and importing games is not. So your argument = fail.

And Nintendo was able to raid a modchip factory because...?

I don't know much about hong kong law.

Just because something is illegal doesn't mean it's just. I never claimed that Nintendo's raid was illegal, just that there are plenty of legal uses for mod chips and this should be allowed.

 

"Plenty" of legal uses you say? Name 10.

Thanks, just pick a number that I couldn't possibly do. Legal uses*:

1) Playing games from a different region
2) Playing backups of legally purchased games
3) Using homebrew software
4) Developing your own software
5) Modifying legally purchased games

As opposed to the illegal uses:

1) Playing games that you have not purchased

*IANAL. Laws vary by country. No responsiblity taken if you are arrested taking my advice.
