1) Wtf? Jeez nintendo about to ruin 200,000 peoples lives.
    They (nintendo) are swimming in money, and most of these guys are likely near broke (if they're resorting to pirateing).


2) Why would you call your thingy "SwitchPirates" ? thats like double dog daring nintendo to do something.

Nintendo isn’t ruining their lives. The pirates are ruining their own lives by breaking the law.

Honestly, the legal infrastructure hasn’t been effective enough in combatting piracy. Someone needs to step up and it may as well be the companies (like Nintendo) who have the money to pursue them. Otherwise they’re just going to keep doing it because they don't see any consequences to just taking stuff for free. It undermines all of us who buy our media, and harms the value and income of creators and the industry.

If the legal system would do their job, Nintendo wouldn't need to bank these operations.
