If I remember correctly each cart has a unique identifier so if that identifier pops up multiple times it shouldn't be possible which is a clear sign of piracy if you go online with it. If you buy a game new and dump that then it shouldn't be an issue.
The fact he felt the need to specify tells me it's a lie just like most people who talk about emulation."PERFECTLY LEGAL DUMPS"suuurrreeee

This is in the terms. We had a thread about it.
Sounds a bit extreme. Why would anyone agree to this?

UK wording is this
The agreement for UK accounts now states digital products are "licensed only for personal and non-commercial use", and that any "unauthorised use of a Digital Product may result in the Digital Product becoming unusable".
US wording
"You acknowledge that if you fail to comply with the foregoing restrictions Nintendo may render the Nintendo Account Services and/or the applicable...
Nintendo reserves the right to brick your console following "unauthorised use", in bid to prevent piracy
Nintendo has updated its Nintendo Account Agreement with a severe warning against "unauthorised use", in a bid to prevent emulation and piracy.

Not unless nintendo decides to brick your console, which they "reserved themselves the right to"
Terms that essentially say you don't own your console

Eh.....not "every single". I rip images from media I own and play them on emulators. But those are all PSP, PS2 and PS3 games.

A cartridge that will go in the Switch slot and hold a game ROM.

Anymore? Completely normal since the Xbox 360 days to get banned from online for piracy related stuff.
They didn't brick the console.
Legal dumps or not, we all know what these things are used for 99% of the time.

As far as I am aware, you can't actually use the mig switch to play Switch 2 games, it's just Switch games. And the Switch 2 isn't really hacked, the mig switch is basically a Switch cart (or hardware emulating a switch cart).

Eh, that's not what I read. Even when you buy a DVD, you agree you shouldn't copy it.

Is this the same guy we were talking about in the Switch OT a few days ago? Who not only admitted to trying to use his Mig Switch on his Switch 2, but did so on the same account he was using on his first Switch that was already banned?

So piracy then? Nothing to see here and they're well within their rights to do that. He's lucky that he's online banned online and not the whole console
Jacobson

yeah, but I doubt anyone who hates Nintendo will buy the game to emulate it. and hating Nintendo seems to be a requirement when buying a Steam Deck lmao

Depends on the jurisdiction. Just because you put it in the EULA doesn't mean it holds any weight
Doesn't really matter anyway since you have no real prospect of challenging them.

Brother, read nintendo user agreement terms
You don't own your console, regardless if you think the reasons for bricking the console you purchased are 'fair'.

I wonder how much $$ worth of software is in that pic
These were dumped legit, which apparently is an important distinction because games dumped on the internet get flagged by Nintendo, so it was the MIG cart itself not the dump.

There's a big difference between random terms the company puts forth and enforceable terms. Nintendo didn't just say you don't own your console, it is completely possible to brick a console remotely, unlike a DVD.

Sure you do. But when you pirate games you don't own those games.

They're clearly dumping their own cart and then transferring the data to the Mig so as not to induce wear n tear on their genuine Switch cartridges
