Current Events > The Nintendo fanboyism here is so blatant, even the mods don't hide it

(+) Yeah! (+)

I wouldn't expect a Nintendo fanboy to understand how emulation isn't the same thing as piracy anyway (since their own policy on their site is a bunch of bullshit that goes directly against the law), but I have to say of all the fanboys, Nintendo's faithful remain the most delusional, insufferable, pathetic, and inherently stupid. It's amazing how these sheep will do humiliating things out of their love for a box of plastic and a crappy, out-of-touch, unwise Japanese company that constantly shoots itself in the foot and still lacks the self awareness to realise what they're doing is wrong and stop before the run their has-been company to the ground for good.

I mean, Christ. I'm not the kind of person to make generalisations, but I'll make an exception for Nintendo fans.

i haven't met a nintendo fan who actually said that nintendo was good for anything besides the games

It's mostly Sony trolls with Victim complexes tbh

The casual traffic that just rummages through the site and votes on polls is Nintendo leaning, but it's SonyFaqs the moment you step into the message boards.

Probably because in 99 cases out of 100, it is. If you don't own the game and didn't dump the rom of it yourself, that's piracy.

It seems like all of these fanboys think the mods favor whoever the other side is.

Confirmation bias, probably.

It is. They can get pretty annoying too, but my point still stands.

Nice statistic. Obviously you are an expert on both emulation and piracy.

I don't have a favourite plastic box and God forbid if I ever become a Nintendo fan.

Nice username, btw.

Replace "Japanese" with "American", and you have Microsoft's Xbox One pitch from 2014. Always online, tying physical discs to consoles, requiring an active, person-tracking camera to be connected at all times etc. and the fans were lapping that shit up and saying "it's not that big of a deal". You can argue that Sony is going in a similar direction in how they refuse to allow cross-play for games that Nintendo and Microsoft fanboys will be able to play with each other, it wouldn't surprise me if there was a splinter of Sony fans who feel like Sony's refusal to conform is some sort of win. Your argument sums up fanboyism as a whole, it's that broad and generic.

Are you going to provide any context as to why you're right and the mods are trigger-happy Nintendo shills?

People have a special place in their heart for Nintendo. And for countless valid reasons. If a business is getting that kind of biased treatment from people it's because they earned it.
