Look, as a gamer, I know Nintendo takes protecting its stuff really seriously. They’ve been fighting piracy for ages, and it’s not just their games – it’s the consoles themselves, like the Switch. Just recently, in September 2025, they won a lawsuit against a company called Modded Hardware. Apparently, Modded Hardware was making these things called MiG Switches that basically let people bypass Nintendo’s anti-piracy tech on the Switch. Nintendo ended up getting $2 million from the settlement, and Modded Hardware is now permanently banned from making those devices. It just shows you how much Nintendo will defend its intellectual property.
