"So, those guys generate positive advertisement for our games. How do we stop it, and make sure that public opinion shifts to «Nintendo is cringe and you're a loser if you play this shit»?"

Also, what the fuck is with Japanese law, criminalising modding?

I mean, if the decision were made today, I guarantee our current supreme court in the US would not have given us fair use.

the current U.S. Supreme Court wouldn't give you democracy, even though the American military has killed tens of thousands of people around the world in its name.
