Reminder that poor Gary Bowser was jailed for a year and owes 30% of his income to Nintendo for the rest of his life. He uses a wheelchair and has two kids.
It would be morally wrong to pirate all future Nintendo titles and pay the cover price to Gary’s gofundme. Please don’t do that.
Please don’t conflate an open effort to own your own hardware and data with a closed effort to literally sell access to copyrighted content under the table, and try to launder the profits and commit fraud. Yuzu and Bowser are not the same.
you mean the MiGSwitch, a device for dumping and preserving switch ROMs? I would love to have one for personal backups, and it pairs well with yuzu. Team Xecuter is credibly presumed to be the developers, so that’s likely Bowser’s current hobby.
Bowser helped create and support online libraries of pirated videogames for its customers, and several of the enterprise’s devices came preloaded with pirated videogames.
Do you really believe that the last statement by yuzu is their own opinion? It really reads as it was written by a Nintendo lawyer and they just needed to sign it.
I disagree with selling pirated roms but, he also wasn’t part of the development team he was closer to a sales associate then anything. the punishment given to him was cruel and unusable and honestly a failure of the legal system.
I see this on the same level as forcing a sales associate at Walmart to pay the fine of all the wage violations the company as a whole did. It’s rediculous.
I personally will never be buying a Nintendo product again out of principle.
yes that was what he was doing was selling Hardware mod chips that you could hook to it to be able to run custom firmware which allowed you to pirate games, the issue stemmed from how they were advertising the project. They weren’t advertising the project as a run your own custom firmware/ backup solution, they were selling the product with the intent that it was being used to pirate

No, I mean charging money for pirated copies of games
This behavior was never condoned by the Yuzu developers

Also believe his (proprietary) software would brick switches if it detected other software, though don’t quote me on that.
Does 30% of the gofundme go to nintendo?
There’s no way that kind of punishment is allowed by the 8th amendment. This is definitely an unusual punishment.
Reminder that “poor Gary” was selling pirated roms.
Oh, the horror! I guess that justifies ruining his life forever.
Who gives a fuck that doesn’t entitle them to ruin his life.
Ah yes, the despicable crime of selling bootlegs can only be punished by permanent service to a billion dollar company. Makes sense.

I thought he was selling chips that let you do piracy
Either way, he and his descendants should be indentured servants to Nintendo. His lineage must be shamed.

I pirated my dick straight into your dad’s ass.
lmao imagine thinking this makes him look less symathetic rather than more. What a fucking loser you are.
