I can see it being the sort of shit Nintendo would try to do, but that said, if it was real we'd have heard about it by now.

Yeah, I'm picturing angry parents over their kids sobbing and being lectured by cops.

Also, I'm pretty sure the switch can't make phone calls. Not 100% sure, but pretty darn close.

No it's just part of this trend of making fake piracy warnings. This one particularly is clearly fake. C'mon.

It will need a cellular card to make an actual phone call itself which it doesnt have. If its connected to the internet there could be software that could make an internet based phone call. But again, Nintendo would be sued. Hacking your switch is like jail breaking your iPhone. Nintendo can protect their software however they want so long as its not intentionally bricking a switch or anything that disables functions (other than online functions).

Yeah, the only people that fucked your hardware for pirating were the jackasses that used Star Force, a company of jackasses. After watching another video following a rabbit hole, Nintendo GENERALLY (there were a few exceptions) just used a black screen informing you piracy is illegal. Anyone who didn't take care of SNES games was apparently at risk of that one.

Talking about video games? it's ok to just disagree with each other on the internet. No point getting hostile or snide about it
