Plus Nintendo's going to send the mandatory updates flying in thick and fast.

Yeah well I wouldnt bet on that because the last update for the Wii that actually had security patches was in 2010. Pretty much every game that came out after 2010 was pirated which is why you could say the lower than expected sales for games like Skyward Sword, Xenoblade, etc.

No, after 2010 Nintendo started putting out games with very vicious watchdog DRM on-disc that would lock the game up as soon as it detected any modifications, requiring a separate suite of software to keep them debugged on the pirates' side. Also worked against certain region-free efforts (like with Kirby Returns to Dreamland).
