Nintendo has been actively taking down YouTube videos that feature its games being emulated or modded, which has sparked significant discussion and concern within the gaming community.

    Steam takes a lot of money for their service, which is a problem.

    They take the same amount of money as other console makers and the store cut is completely unrelated to what Nintendo’s lawyers do which is the actual topic here.

      This isn’t a good argument, right? Just because they’re not the only ones doesn’t mean it’s fair. And you can simply compare it to GOG as well

      But well, let’s stay by the topic then.

        This isn’t a good argument, right?

        The topic is Nintendo who make a handheld console and unless CD Project make a GOGBoy with a bespoke SteamOS-like “console OS”, yet another storefront for Windows PCs is hardly an actual alternative.

        I also though of them because they recently improved their subscriber agreement (apparently not for selfless reasons but still an improvement esp. in the light of what Nintendo is currently doing).
