And to be honest, I am sure there will be hacks out there to prevent locks such as this and also to unlock a locked system so its mostly eh. And if you don't pirate/hack it, then you have nothing to worry about... Heck, unless you are a complete noob, one of the first rules of piracy is don't connect the console to the internet if you are pirating and I am guessing thats the only way they will be able to lock it |
The thing is, the law really hasn't decided to take a look at all this stuff. I'm pretty sure that if it did, the courts would deny any company the ability to destroy someone elses property. Sure, you techincally license games. But the console? Nintendo has no ownership at all and I'm pretty sure legally, killing it would violate laws.
It's only a matter of time before things like this get the attention they need in court. Hopefully it happens sooner rather than later.
