Nintendo’s ongoing fight against Switch piracy has a new target in its sights — and that’s the r/SwitchPirates subreddit.
In the gbatemp thread they wrote that this guy flew too much near to the sun:
-
Reused his username everywhere to the point that his name and the fact that he was from Arizona was public
-
Sent back to Nintendo multiple switches to repair using that name with an Arizona address
It wasn’t hard for them to dox and sue him as he literally gave them his real address multiple times…
It is amazing how, and I am sorry to call this out, fucking stupid some people are while doing illegal things.
Reusing the username, not smart but also not super stupid. Stating where he lives, a bit stupid. Sending Switches for repair with that username??? Was his username his real name? That would be even worse.

I hate Reddit but fuck Nintendo massively. Twats
The ‘SwitchPirates’ subreddit is in Nintendo’s sights.
What? Next you’re going to tell me water is wet
Water isn’t wet though
Sure it is!
See, when water is on something, it’s wet.
Water is made of molecules, H2O.
Each molecular is water, in and of itself.
Ergo, every molecule of water that is in contact with another is wet.
Water is wet. Individual molecules of dihydromonoxide are not
At what point is water water though?
I think the individual molecule is still a water molecule.
We have reached an impasse it seems, pistols at dawn?
Monsieur, pistols at noon is the American tradition. High noon.
However, did you note that you had to specify water molecule to complete your objection? Even in your disagreement, you prove my point! Ha ha! I have parried your thrust and replaced it with my own!
I have things to do though, it’s Black Friday!
I would also have to define it as a gallon of water, specifying molecule only specifies size in the context I used
Stop. Water drowns people. Let’s do beer instead.
Beer isn’t wet though.
Now Nintendo is seeking the court’s approval to actually subpoena Reddit for user records.
Multiple film studio failed in 2023
Do nintendo think they better?
Nah they just spend too much money on lawyers so they need them to always be doing something.
Reddit pirates? There’s still those?
Well… chat bot simulation of
TBH, I don’t even let myself play things made by nintendo anymore bc they piss me off so much after they killed a lot of the emulator projects. which is funny bc i used to actually BUY things they made, even if i also pirated them so that i could use on pc.
