!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

It isn't eBay where anybody can sell anything. Nintendo curates and specifically authorizes all games sold on the platform, and they also license the right to emulate their legacy hardware in commercial releases on their platform.

They charged money to allow the sale of pirated software.

I think that's a bit of a stretch. To what extent do you think Nintendo was aware of the particular details in this situation?
