    Those play different games

    Not true. The deck can emulate Switch games. 😌

      IIRC you have to buy a Switch to legally emulate Switch games anyway?

        Oh you’re right, we’d never ever do something illegal

        Nah just the games and a cartridge dumper

          And the cartridge dumper would be a hacked Switch. Besides that you also need to get several system files from said Switch and import to the emulator.

            You can buy at least 1 dumper for switch carts and not need an actual Switch. The same device can get your certs, but yes for that you do need to have a switch.

        Are you under the impression that we need to stick to legal discussion here?

          What are we even discussing if following the law is not mandatory? Why not just shoplift a Switch 2 from retail?

            Breh go buy your $90.00 games from Nintendo and STFU

              So your point is that it’s overpriced therefore piracy is justified?

                Pretty much, yes.

                  Interesting strategy to admit that you were just looking for excuses to justify piracy. As it seems we both agree that you don’t have a valid argument I have nothing to add.

                    Seems like a pretty valid justification?
