Threats are obviously not justifiable and are not okay but Nintendo has been earning a lot of badwill with gamers recently with their decisions to disallow small esport events. They have also aggressively copyright struck videos in the past that realistically just gave their awesome games free advertising but that's not okay with them, etc

They seem to make a lot of really dumb business and especially community decisions despite making some incredible games. It's not too surprising some people would feel burned with that.
