Will be interesting to see if Nintendo tries anything with this one. Explaining how to boot the switch into RCM mode with the jig is the same thing that resulted in Nintendo issuing a CTM (Circumvention of Technological Protection Measures) complaint about one of my videos. It was subsequently removed from UA-cam.
If it can be done (and works as a means to access internal menus designed to be used) then there is no such "circumventing" nor "protection".
Just because they left their backdoor open does NOT MEAN people are "breaking in".
@@Jadebones I agree but Nintendo clearly doesn't see it that way.
Huge fan
Oh its Mr. Warfare! Iove your content!
@@destructodisk9074 wouldn't that analogy be more like using a lockpick to open your own door? Which is totally legal. You are getting access to a diagnostic menu of hardware device you own.
My respect for LTT just grew significantly. For standing up to overbearing corporations in defense of the enthusiast community they’re a great community resource!
bruh they have the screen blurred
@@unicornsrdabest they have to for legal reasons, they are trying their best
@@unicornsrdabest Well yeah, obviously. Nintendo literally DMCA strikes anything showing their games, running on anything other than their own systems.
What they're doing isn't all they can do, but caution around Nintendo is a good idea.
LTT cares about authenticity. If they don't agree with something, they'll let everyone know regardless of the cost.
Wow, I can't believe Linus was found in a ditch after shooting himself 50 times in the chest and snapping his own neck, what a coincidence.
Strange that they found a Luigi Amiibo in his pocket....
@@vilebastage I thought it was a Wario one.
This is a really dark comment the deeper you think about it
@@thegrizzler534 then don't think about it lol
@@thegrizzler534 not really that derep, being shot in the chest 50 times and snapping your own neck is pretty dark without digging deeper what?
its very impressive that LTT are bassically calling out nintendo and standing up for fair use. Great job.
It's called Legal Emulation for a reason :)
@@WhoTheDev Yeah this is easily the best video about it because they are actually honest about the legality of it and talk about all the upsides (all being on one device, runs better if its more powerful device than a steam deck) as well as the downsides (no online play which makes games like Splatoon or Mario kart pointless on emulator and the steam deck having much worse battery life, and the imperfections of early days emulation with stutters or crashes). Most people are just like "free games lol fuck Nintendo" which obviously isn't helpful for anyone.
LDN u can play with modded switch and other emulator players. Been doing this with all my friends and its fun@@Bargate

@@gonzalolog how does that have anything to do with him blurring out his house windows? Are u high?
Nintendo's number one fear, emulation
The funny thing is it's perfectly legal in the US, just like game cartridge rental... But It's illegal in Japan and since Nintendo is japanese-based the considerate theft regardless of it actually being legal in the US... So they pursue it relentlessly.
Pog. A wild Mischief appeared.
Hey-o. How it going my dude?
@@TravisFabel emulation is. As long as it's a copy of your own game. Though I believe in UK and Europe it's also illegal or on the way. But people confuse piracy and emulation. Piracy isn't legal..
@@rhysjones8506 well, it is legal until you get caught ;)

YESSSS
They didn't bother taking down this video, they took down the whole emulator in stead. Wonderful bullying from Nintendo once again!!
ryujinx still active.. yuzu on other hand is gone..
Yuzu did it to themselves by doing shit like allowing online play by circumventing nintendos servers.
They were practically asking for it and I’m surprised that didn’t get them taken down sooner.
Ryujinx has multiplayer but only between other ryujinx users and hacked switch consoles, with no connection to real Nintendo servers.
I still think it’s bullshit, but to call it bullying is a bit strong.
Not defending the billion dollar corporation, just pointing out a big mistake yuzu made.
@@Willowposting Why would that matter though?
@@monkeybase01 I mean I am sure that's just a factor that Nintendo got to take yuzu down, and will do the same with Ryujinx if they find anything contentious for a legal case.
But as a general case a hacked/device that would offer modability (mod device let's say) in an area of multiplayer game where that is not possible is certainly an issue for players as well due to unfair advantage to the prior. And this arises only when the mod device owners can connect to same servers as to original device owners.
Still Nintendo is shitty and a bully in this area imo, no doubt about it!
4 months have passed and this video is still surviving nintendo
Anthony is a sneaky sneaky boi, he knows how to evade those laywers.
I thought it was a new video, honestly. Until I saw the publish date.

All hardware eventually breaks down over time; software preservation via emulation is essential to keeping these pieces of history intact for future generations to experience.
something i can hold and feel is cooler than data stored inside computers
@@pickle24 but whatever you can hold can be broken, this the point of preservation
Technically mine never has in the past, hell even my 360.
@@celphalonred1999 I can assure you that there'll be a component that doesn't work as well as it used to or at all - that's the point of their comment
@@celphalonred1999 Wait till it red ring of deaths, or the HDD fails, or the graphic cards fails, or the CPU fails. itll happen
This is ballsy and especially comforting given the recent Ubisoft news, that at least someone has our backs for game preservation, right to repair and actual ownership of the things we pay for.
You mean the server shutdowns? They don't actually sell you access to their servers, the game you bought just allows access to them for free, and they are entirely in their right to shut down these free services at any point. Companies can't be expected to keep paying for servers forever, so I think that's reasonable.
However, I do find it annoying as they could have made multiplayer modes available in LAN rather than always rely on external servers.
@@Thornskade Except Ubisoft in their infinite wisdom decided that you should have to connect to their servers to access DLC content, meaning that, for example, if you bought the deluxe edition of Assassin's Creed 2 on steam you're unable to access any of the extra content including two whole story chapters in the middle of the game. They had to remove "deluxe edition" from the title because of this last year and now this is going to affect all the other games on the list
@@Thornskade I would say they should still have an obligation to make it where DLC you PAYED for is still accessible somewhere if they're gonna pull this crap though otherwise they're just screwing people over.
@@theninjamaster67 Thats how things are going to be in the future. Look at what Bungie has done with Destiny 2. Years and hundreds of dollars worth of content just gone.
If I remember correctly the cost for running a server is roughly $10/month.
That's peanuts in terms of total revenue and a single server can support many multiplayer games especially if the total online presence is low.
Or yeah, P2P conversion would be a good option for them to do too, or allow the community to make themselves.
With the DLC, the original titles are losing the dlc but not the remastered copies. So they are trying to force you to buy the same game again... On PC!
I know I'm 6 months late but just a heads up to anyone wondering, Yuzu and Ryujinx (Switch emulators) both use what's called shader caches. Basically you can download shader caches from different places of people that have completed them (I believe there are some subreddits out there) or you can do certain actions and inputs in the games and those shaders will cache overtime. So that's why you see a lot of stuttering seemingly at completely random intervals, because it's caching those shaders. (Assuming the LTT team didn't know this and just ran the dumped games right away without prep)
I really want to see the watch analytics after the yuzu shutdown
Absolute example of which LTT deserves their massive fanbase - they're doing it FOR THE CULTURE. Well done.
They are somewhat in a special place at moment, they actually have the resources to fight Nintendo. They are Canadian, so certain legal tactics from Nintendo would need to actually stand up against a legal system that is not completely controlled by corporations. I may disagree with Linus on what are basically superficial points, but his overall position is something I am behind 100%. This video is an intentional challenge to Nintendo, but also the broader industry.
Every single thing within video, and how precisely it was worded and delivered, is pretty much the definition of 'come at me bro'
@@benwu7980 what did you disagree with Linus on?
*well said sir.*

doing it for potential support for piracy? well done.
Thanks for supporting the emulation scene!

Love your content too.
@@tegaidogun you make him sound like a gaming Yetti 😆
Rest in Peace Yuzu
Nintendo played the long game on taking this video down.
Note: It is possible to set things up so you can connect to WiFi safely on a hacked Switch but if you don't follow the instructions *EXACTLY* you'll get banned and LTT likes to keep things as simple as possible so they probably just felt that things like DNS settings and the difference between SysNAND and EmuNAND was too complicated for a general audience.
But the instructions are in the guide they linked if you are comfortable with that stuff.
Hmmmmm... 🤔...
Yeah, running my switch with wifi on the sysnand and still with wifi but blocked nintendo servers on the emunand
pretty sure they didnt mention dns settings because that's technically circumventing nitendo.
;)
Combined with incognito it's great!
I can smell Nintendo’s lawyers snooping through the entirety of LTT as we speak.
Let’s prepare our 50TB servers that Linus taught us how to build, a make a backup of the channel :)
hopefully they dont get them for something else now that they are in the spotlight~
@@Just-View PetaByte
Honestly, I can easily see Nintendo not only going after LTT for copyright infringement, but I can also see Nintendo going after them for piracy. They just created a video instructing people to pirate Nintendo's copyright.
something tells me LTT videos are all backed up somewhere(s)
"Pirating" Nintendo is a moral obligation of any honorable citizen.
Indeed
It's crazy because if Nintendo had their own online service like Xbox game pass for all their heavy hitter classic games they'd be filthy rich

@@marcogenovesi8570 Sure you're not wrong, but can you really make that argument when the game has no death in sight?
@@HilbertXVI can't tell if you are serious or just trolling but I'll answer anyways.
Current gen emulation is ALMOST always a pirate thing, as you lose alot of the benefits of the console and game playing on a emulator. like online and other experience.
woah
RIP Yuzu
The fact that the 300$ Steam deck is comparable to a 1200$ gaming laptop is insane
It's an insane value but there are plenty of gaming laptops at that price range that blow it out of the water, unfortunately they aren't exactly portable
@@RomeDrori even the 64g model with a cheap SD card?
@@RomeDrori laptops?? maybe a pc but definitely not a laptop
@@RomeDrori no 300$ laptop is comparable to steamdeck though?
@@Apple_Beshy yes there is? the steam deck is comparable to like a mid/low range 2018 gaming laptop, which you can easily find for $200-300 nowadays. they'll have better screens, too.
Any video promoting the emulation scene AND the homebrewing scene is an incredibly important one. So much misinformation is spread in both areas.
I agree
@@plumjet0930 thanks for agreeing
Anthony as a smuggler looks so funny
Dangerous*
its the most threatening thing ive ever seen
Yeah
You got any more of those *scratches neck* nintendo games??
He run fast too!!
Just a heads up: if you have multiple Switch consoles, the console you're backing up *must* be marked as your primary console in the Nintendo eShop, ideally before you start this process. Otherwise, your system's keys won't be valid for the games you back up and yuzu might fail to launch certain games.
Thanks for sharing this. I’m viewing it “for informational purposes only” because this isn’t something I’ll ever do. Honestly, I’m too lazy to bother. The Switch OLED is good enough for me, but I appreciate the free sharing of information and I’m sure other gamers really wanted to know this stuff.
Anthony is astronomically based for making this video. We're so lucky to have him delivering such great content so consistently.
Sus.
yes, but did he tested GPD WIN.MAX 6800U, i think the performance is better.
@@jiali5165 That thing is borderline a Handheld, so a comparison doesn't make much sense imo. All Reviews i watched said that the formfactor is not nice to hold at all, the display weights so much that your arms get tired fast and the battery life, even at a conservative TDP setting of 15W is just in the 1,5-2h range. So in the end, sure the performance is better, but my Tower-PC has also better performance, doesn't tell the whole story.
"Based", I so hate that word. Don't we have plenty more eloquent and better words to describe/ascribe the concept?
"astronomically based"
Once again: it's great to throw your weight around and all, but Nintendo _knows_ they'll lose fights like this in court so they _will not_ pick them. It's much better for them to leave it in a grey area and be able to threaten the little guy with legal action that the little guy isn't sure they'll win or can even afford to win. In order to stop Nintendo's blatant BS, somebody needs to file suit _against Nintendo_ asking for a declaratory judgement that all this stuff is legal. That would pin them against the wall and help to neuter their litigiousness by giving the little guys more surety of victories in court and a greater likelihood of recovering attorney's fees. Somebody with chops needs to take the fight to Nintendo, Game Genie-style.
Here's the thing, though. If tomorrow Jimmy-nobody posts a video tutorial to his three subscribers showing far less and gets hit with a takedown, he can appeal it by pointing out that similar content remains up. Maybe he gets ignored, but just maybe Jimmy happens to have the resources or connections to take the case to court, and that case is far stronger the more videos like this exist and stay un-challenged.
I am not a lawyer but I am pretty sure in my country it is forbidden to bypass and or disable anti-piracy measures. It is like as if I would film myself robbing a bank.
@@tmicecave This isn't piracy
@@Psychx_ It isn't just money though. Actually letting a matter like this go to court means spending years embroiled in a highly technical legal matter too. It means that if you or your lawyer fuck up Nintendo get a beneficial judgment and you just turned legal bullying into case law that any company in a similar situation can fall back on. If public support dries up midway through the case - than can take years - then you'll have to drop the whole thing. This isn't H3H3 getting sued by another UA-camr, this is hoping that public support and whatever lawyer that support can buy will stand up to team of legal experts with all the financial backing they could ever need.
And even then, if Nintendo is suing you they can always retract their suit if it becomes inconvenient for them, or offer to settle out of court without creating precedent.
@@colinhobbs7265 Read again. I said nothing about this being piracy.
Nintendo would be the company to not take this down and then go after the emulator -_-
Let's seee how long this will last after the Yuzu hit
This is why they, publishers, want to push cloud gaming. :)
Cant "pirate a rom" if you never touch the real data. They see legal, rightful use of their old products, as loss of profit. Cant lose profit if we can never own the game.
Exactly this.
Similar to films exclusive to streaming platforms. Owning anything nowadays is either made a chore or you end up sailing the high seas. Yo ho yo ho...
I think the reason Nintendo specifically is so aggressive with anti emulation is because their product is mostly reliant on the fact that it's their system. Sony and Microsoft might compete to make a more powerful system, but at the end of the day, they're not relying on the fact that their consoles are "unique" to stay afloat, especially since they're also putting their games on several platforms. Nintendo on the other hand depends on people buying into whatever special gimmick they have to get people to buy their console and games.
At first I thought this was just a hunch, but researching into it, this difference is actually true. While other game console companies sell their consoles at no profit or even at a loss, Nintendo is the outlier where they make the majority (55%) of their money from the console sales. This actually makes sense from a hardware perspective too. People are confused by Nintendo's decision to intentionally stick with extremely outdated hardware despite better alternatives being available, but viewing it from a consoles profits first perspective would clarify why Nintendo doesn't want to come out with a "Switch Pro". They probably don't want to cut into those profits by messing with the supply chain and buying more expensive parts for new switches.
@@_GLXC their games and IPs are what makes Switch works. Nobody would buy it only to play The Witcher in 480p.
@@alminhelex Except that there are plenty of ways to capture a video stream whereas you can not do such things with interactive media.
Years ago I dumped my whole GameCube library, just for my own personal use. My original GameCube stopped working, and some of the disks had gotten scratched over years of play sessions. Yeah, I could go buy a beat up Wii or GameCube at a flea market, but even my old laptops could easily run Dolphin at upscaled resolutions.
Nintendo and most of the third parties won't rerelease the games I owned from that era. I would buy most of them again if they were properly ported to new hardware, but only a few like LucasArts bothered to take the effort. Until then I feel completely fine about emulating my old library.
If only Nintendo see further than the yen they can count...
I dumped my GB, GBA, DS, Wii/Wii U and PlayStation 1/2/PSP games from my consoles/memory cards. I'd just like to note that I didn't do this because I gave a crap about the legality of downloading games I own from the internet, because I don't. The outcome is the same. However, I wanted to get ahold of my save files. I got worried when one of my cartridges died so I saved the rest. I'm glad to have these backed up, it was worth the hassle.
My DS and PSP are both dead and no doubt the other consoles won't be lasting too long anymore either. Instead of scrolling through eBay to buy ancient overpriced hardware every few years, it's simply much more reasonable and comfortable to play these games on modern devices with open platforms. I got a vertical controller attachment for my Android phone for DS games and the rest I play on whatever I feel like, such as the Steam Deck.
I feel fine pirating current switch games too, never wouldve bought them anyway with those prices.
If I remember correctly, the ridiculous part is that you can only legally emulate a game, if you have a working copy of the original. So if your game cartridge gets worn out or the console dies, you are required to stop emulating, completely defeating the purpose of archival...
I swear there are games I bought like 3 or 4 times, sometimes in different platforms, sometimes just because I lost the floppys or cds or w/e. Now with the current internet speeds I "pirate" those games, don't care if it is my own backup. Even back in the day I went on IRC channels to get NOCD cracks for games I owned, DRM is a pita
Hey Anthony, I have one question that I haven;t really gotten a clear answer on, I recently started playing skyrim again and really don't want to have to start a game over again because I want to install it on the steam deck. I'm wondering copy my entire game file over (mods included), install vortex and then mod all the mods from my PC vortex file and copy them to the new one, would vortex should recognize the mods and right? Or should I just install all the vortex mods again to make sure I have all the ones my save file has been using and pray my save file will open without issue? as it seems like the mods installed via in game mod shop should move over fine. I just don't want to have to start over again.
After doing emulation on various devices most of my life I realized a few years ago that the most conventient way is just to use your laptop + a USB/Bluetooth controller. Only other type of emulation I find useful is editing the games on the mini consoles/having a retropie for party games
Was hoping you wouldn't need to blur the screen, but happy to see emulation getting a shout out.
A lot of my old childhood ps1 disks are toast, but I made backups of them years ago so still get to enjoy them without having to pay hundreds of dollars for Digimon World 2 on ebay
there was one unblurred loading screen with a nintendo logo and appearently it's not blurred on floatplane.
i am eager to see how nintendo reacts
Look at the hipster over here playing the objectively inferior Digimon game on the PSX.
In case it is not clear: just kidding.
I just watched the FP upload, it's shown in all its bloody glory. I guess owning your own video platform means you can react to DMCA requests any way you see fit
The short that was posted on the channel does not have it blurred.
With what we pay for these games, it should be illegal to for makers dictate where they are played. We owe no loyalty to hardware.
I agree, Nintendo shouldn’t take down videos showing the games on the steam deck, but then again it is their intellectual property.
@@rickastleygaming A video of the game being played that’s literally just being used to show how it runs isn’t copyright infringement, it’s fair use otherwise reviews would be illegal

And that even is actually a dangerous appliance not a console.
I need some help. I tried to update BotW, but it don't work. Yuzu says it's on version 1.6.0 with DLC 1 and 2 installed, but in-game it's only version 1.0.0 without the DLCs. I copied the cartridge (trimmed), the updates and the DLCs from my switch and installed the updates and DLCs via .nsp file.
Did I do something wrong? I had no problems updating other games like this.
And I also can't get the data of the game cadence of hyrule. There is no data of the game in the installed games folder, but it is installed and I can play it on my Switch
Fuck it, it's morally correct to pirate nintendo games
So much respect for Anthony writing this video, Linus allowing it to go ahead despite the possible legal issues, and all the support from the rest of the team! Though, knowing LTT this is a fight they would enjoy to have, regardless of how much of a pain in the ass it may end up being. Good work Guys!
Im not sure if Anthony or any host writes the content himself. But Anthony is my #1 favourite presenter/host period 💪😌
@@ArniesTech I think Anthony is also part of the writing team, based on videos they posted if their writers meeting, but yeah im sure a lot of the scripts are a team effort. No one person can make content of this quality and consistency, which is what makes LTT so special!
@@ArniesTech It's on the credit at the last who wrote it, an dit was Anthony alone.

This is Linus’s idea. In one the WAN shows way back he promised they will make a video like this and that he is prepared to fight Nintendo over this.
Seeing Anthony smiling warms my heart!
He has changed a lot through theese years.
I do believe that while on his first days at ltt he wasn't at ease being filmed, he now is really enjoying the situation and he finally has the fun he deserves.

TBH I dont think the "It can emulate Switch" Is a valid reason to say the Deck is better, you still have to buy a Switch (a specific model at that), and the games to do it legally after all.
Though if you do actually own the Switch and games there is no problem in emulating them, only problem is a lot of people dont
Yeah, the fact that smaller youtubers are prevented from showing this despite it being COMPLETELY LEGAL is kind of insane. Talk about the justice system being a plutocracy.
Also, if it wasn't for Nintendo's psychotic behavior, you wouldn't even need a Switch, a company could just build a device that automagically copies the data from the card.
This is not so much Nintendo hitting LTT directly, it's also about Google's lowly paid compliance team who will just roll over and say "yes sir" when Nintendo demand that the content is taken down. In many ways it is up to Google to revert back to Nintendo and demand that Nintendo prove that the content should be removed. Therefore this is not just a potential fight between Nintendo and LTT, it's Nintendo via Google and LTT via Google.
Google can't do that without putting themselves in a high amount of risk (hence their hands-off approach). Submitting a DMCA request requires accepting to the possibility of going to court over it (which does not include Google).
Legally, it's Nintendo hitting LTT. Using the platform to do it is just how DMCA tends to work.
@@maxlyrenhex it's not even dmca at this point, Nintendo has access to UA-cam's CMS system to directly take down a video

there is no google paid complience team, its all automated. ltt may have a contact at google, but if a big company like nintendo flags something, its only about an automated "review" in 99,999999999% never a human eye will review anything.
HOLD THE LINE THEY'RE COMING
Careful, they're on the prowl now.
glad you showed how to legally get ROMs to emulate, I'm so tired of everyone defaulting to "emulation = piracy"
Doesn't stop Nintendo from calling it piracy, lol.
I do not think there's a strong argument in favour of emulating software WHICH IS STILL ACTIVELY SOLD thought. The only reason to emulate here is "I don't want to pay for a Switch" which basically proves Nintendo right in their "emulation equals piracy" line.
Who cares if it's illegal or not. Nintendo's own service for retro games is trash.
@@Alias_Anybody To be fair with certain emulators you can use mods to increase performance or resolution. But yeah most people just use emulators to pirate because they don't want to pay for anything.
@@Alias_Anybody If you buy a Switch used, Nintendo doesn't make any money either. So, is buying used consoles piracy now? Of course not. Doesn't prove anything Nintendo says right.
I find it hilarious that Nintendo will just never understand that you can't stop a globally connected network of gamers, engineers and programmers to get what they want anyway, even if they say no. Fuck you, Nintendo. And god bless you, Anthony and every unknown person who made this all possible
Yeah, it's also incredibly frustrating that Nintendo can really only take down the guys who genuinely and transparently attempt to archive video game history at little or no profit, while countless shady Amazon vendors of 100,000-in-one rom packs and malware-ridden pirate sites are basically immune and laughing their way to the bank.
It's even MORE frustrating when Nintendo's digital stores are historically the worst place to buy games, because once those stores (or your consoles) disappear, so do your game libraries. For that reason I'd happily jailbreak a Switch just to backup the games I've bought, because god knows when Nintendo's gonna just remove those games from existence.
i find it hilarious that you and your family will just never understand that you cant stop junkies, robbers, and cold hearted criminals to get your hard earned money, assets and life, even you beg them no 😈

Looks like Nintendo didn’t care
A couple years ago a port of Super Mario was released on the Commodore 64 (yes, really), and Nintendo performed a cease and desist. Really for the independent programmer who spent 8 years making it work they should have praised his achievement.... but they have proven over and over again that they actually hate their fans.
Why do fans think they can infringe on other peoples property and say, "Well, look, you should be happy we paid you in exposure, right?"
Nintendo doesn't give a shit. Buy the game and play it on the console it was made for is their business model.
@@MN-jw7mm literally nobody was going to use the commodore 64 fan port as a way to play it instead of playing the original. the only people who'd give a shit about it have already got the original game. it doesn't hurt sales at all.
@@MN-jw7mm Troll much? This was a fan product of a game over 30 years old to prove it could be done with no financial incentive as they were giving it away. But hey, you should go order that brand new NES and Super Mario in ~2018 when it came out to make yourself feel better... Oh.. .wait, you can't! Because it was a 30 year old game on obsolete 30 year old hardware. There is literally no financial loss to Nintendo.
@@MN-jw7mm But hey, Sonic the Hedgehog C64 was release too, for free.. and guess what? Sega, who still exists, didn't give a damn.
@@MN-jw7mm Copyright is not property. It is a limitation of property. Treating it as property is dysfunctional, and gives companies like Nintendo way too much power. Remaking a 30 year old game should not "infringe" on the rights on anyone, and morally speaking, no one is getting hurt.
Big respect to Anthony. Any big corporations believe that media preservation had nothing to do with piracy if library was lost, really need to rethink.
we lose games all the time . I think a few have been saved by some random person related to the office saving the main copy away in some area while the company loses the files .

I love the big "TRY ME" from Linus with this video, after Nintendo have been so blatantly anti-consumer for so long. Now we know what the backpack money is going to ... those lawyers don't work for free afterall.
I like the joke but if you watch the WAN show you know all their money is going into LTT Lab lol.
Lawyers run on water, drank from our LTT.store bottles.
Nintendo don't care about videos on here. There's hundreds of videos of Switch emulation and RCM guides on UA-cam. IDK why LTT is running with this narrative that they're doing something risky when they're not.
But in the end, any lawyer just represents their client as best as they can, the entire responsibility is with Nintendo
They are anti-consumer because people pirate their stuff. and now they are gonna be MORE anti-consumer cuz people like you are now gonna pirate games.
Here's the problem. This generation Nintendo is extremely aggressive at preventing aftermarket software from running on their hardware. They're lobbying to make it illegal to mod consoles in Japan and they have even stated in court that they have redesigned the Switch specifically to prevent running non-Nintendo software multiple times.
Unlike going through a similar process for, say, the Wii and Dolphin, Nintendo is arguing you're in the wrong either way. You can either pirate the stuff, which is illegal, or you can jump through these hoops and have them come at you for 'circumventing protection measures'. They will only look at the illegal stuff you _could_ do to it, and decide that you are immediately a criminal the moment you even think of buying an RCM jig. They don't care about you, the costumer, not breaking the law or even their ip, they just care about money. Unfortunately for us, they have enough money to make sure they can impose their envisioned way of using a product we bought onto us
They're so desperate about killing emulation because they know hardware from 1880 could run their titles. Anyone with a blackberry could play their games. Patents and IP's are all they have.
I mean, they call emulation illegal, despite them emulating their own games and selling that to their customers.
Sound worse than Apple.
they can't sue everyone kekw
Even if it's illegal in Japan they'll have a hard time lobbying this on EU or US. I feel bad for Japan but at least in all likelyhood we won't be subject to that, especially as "right to repair" movements grow

“50 cc because i’m a games journalist” made me belly laugh
Like the _actual_ pirates who sailed the seas, Nintendo has targeted those without the ability to defend themselves. LTT has become a ship of the line, with Captain Anthony at the helm, saying "come at us, scoundrels, if ye dare".

borderless window mode makes leaving the game (alt-tabbing out on PC) quicker and doesnt pause the game at all
"Nintendo believes that any emulation is piracy" That wouldn't happen to have anything to do with the fact that they love charging high prices for old games on their Virtual Console, which don't carry over to the next console generation, thus forcing people to buy the same decades old game multiple times right? No that has to be a coincidence.
Which is hilarious because Virtual Console / Nintendo Online titles are emulated. They don't port stuff either. If any emulation is piracy, Virtual Console is piracy ;)
Anthony shows us the moral path and tells Nintendo how immoral they've been. I love it and I doubt this video will be up in a week.
Not only the moral path, but the legal path. As he said, US copyright law has set a precedent that consumers have a right to use software they own as they wish

Perfectly put on why Nintendo is such a frustrating company to be a fan of. Maybe it's that same stubbornness that attributes to the quality of Mario and Zelda games (although everything else falls to the wayside).
We would all hope that they are a few more weird choices away from being humbled, but time has shown that that is not the case.

I have been a LTT viewer for many years, and I've always enjoyed the content from every staff member. In the last few months, I find myself watching more and more of Anthony's videos and they are truly incredible. We live in a pretty blessed time for tech enthusiasts. There are so many resources and youtube channels at our fingertips. But I don't see many that can effectively 1) take on a major corp with class and tact, 2) show you in detail how to jail break a console, 3) show you in detail how to run emulation software, all while having 4) a great host and great video production quality.
The combo of Anthony's knowledge and resourcefulness, with LTT's incredible resources, budget, and editing & support staff, make these videos truly shine. I think what makes me respect Anthony so much is that he is simultaneously a complete expert, but also an excellent educator. One conundrum in life is that it tends to get harder to think like a noob the more you become an expert on a subject, which can make teaching difficult topics to new students a challenge. But Anthony really breaks down complex and technically challenging tasks into bite sized pieces and explains the process along the way. As a long time PC gamer who is flustered by archaic console exclusivity, thank you for content like this. Great idea for a great video, I look forward to the next.
PS: I really like the series where you bought a bunch of dollar store electronics junk and tested it with legit tools to see which are worth buying expensive vs buying cheap. As much as I love the reviews on crazy expensive tech, I also really enjoy the more practical series like these, too.
The assimilation of knowledge is so empowering!
Always loved Anthony's videos. Total Chad.

It is a pretty simple concept. Right person in the right place. Would not eatch a bathing suite review with Anthony but for tech video's he is the perfect guy with the amount of stuff he knows.
This is legitimately easier and more user friendly to back up your save game data then the options Nintendo gives you, and this is what I've been saying for years, not everything involving jailbreaking is illegal rom downloading, we just want completely fair and legal access to our video game consoles that we paid for and own, I should be able to play my Animal Crossing island on multiple switches if I so choose to
As someone who lost their entire deck of save data, I will likely look into this more as the official Nintendo method is indeed shit.
I think it is illegal if it goes against the company policies.
@@user-ng2ts8xr5s company policies aren’t laws
@@user-ng2ts8xr5s Nintendo isnt the government, they dont make laws, you have no obligation to listen to them if your country’s law allows for it
@@user-ng2ts8xr5s
1. You don't agree to any policy when you purchase the console, and that can be circumvented by going into recovery before pressing "agree" to whatever they force you to do on startup.
2. Any EULA term (or policy) that is deemed to be against the law will not stand in court, so if they say that you are not allowed to do this but it's protected by law, they will get nothing. Generally, backups and modifications of your physical goods are protected ny law.
3. Even if you breach a EULA that is legal, at most you'll have to pay a fine if you didn't do anything illegal. Breaking the law and breaking a contract are two different things. Especially since if you own all the games, they cannot claim any damages having been done to them and hence will not be able to have you pay a fee.
Nintendo only bans hacked switches that go online because it is so hard to prove that you did anything. At most they might have proof of you pirating games, but since you weren't buying them anyways and didn't share them, there's little to earn from the trouble they'd go through.
Not to mention how hard to prove this may be; you can smash the switch before they can check if you pirated anything. You can purchase the game they found you playing once they banned you. Only if you actually distributed them online can legal pursuit have any worth.

If they don't, it only shows Nintendo doesn't have the guts to go after a major player.
And by major player I mean a channel that doesn't get their video blocked by an automatic process and can spend a week calling tech support to put things right. Only for Nintendo to do the same after it's no longer blocked and the creator can start over again (UFD Tech for their Android on Switch video, before Linus did it).
@@CheapBastard1988 I'm sure Nintendo will attempt to issue a takedown, but honestly I don't see UA-cam rolling over on this one. Linus has repeatedly said he can pick up the phone and talk to higher ups at UA-cam, so unless laws are actually being broken I don't think Nintendo has the authority to demand anything here.
Idk, even Nintendo has to realize the Switch is starting to wane and is severely outdated now. They may just ignore it.
I doubt it will be taken down since they didn't show anything illegal, and they even blurred the screen to avoid showing nintendo "property" (characters and content).
Sure nintendo can file a DMCA but if they do LTT can sue them for abuse of DMCA, since DMCA isn't just "youtube take down pls", it's an actual legal filing involving lawyers. And if it's used incorrectly, you can easily get sued for whatever damage your false DMCA caused. In this case revenue loss for LTT for having a video taken down. Super illegal.
@@CheapBastard1988 LTT also gave them no ground. They did their best to give Nintendo no case. They should've done the nopposite if they wanted a legal battle. IOf anything LTT chicken out a bit (I understand why).

Btw, could have a "doing this on Linux" appendix at the end.
Thanks LTT.
Nintendo consoles are my favorite to homebrew (aside from the switch) because of how usually simple it is, and how powerful they can be. I have a homebrewed Wii U (the Wii U port of BoTW on CEMU is better than any other version of the game), DSi, and 3ds. I haven't homebrewed the Switch because the people over at Nintendo are incredibly annoying and will likely ban your account.
Anyway, despite the low specs, it's amazing how good something like a 3ds can be when you have the power to install any software you want.
Also, something I would be REALLY interested in is portable Xbox 360 emulation on the Deck using Xenia.
It works decently well on PC, though the emulator isn't super good yet. I would love to see how the Steam Deck's specs can handle 360 emulation.
Oh yeah, and to finish off my comment, on the topic of getting banned from Switch for dumping games, I prefer to enter the Gray Area™ and just download ROMs for games I own because I technically still bought the game.
I love the fact Linus, Anthony & LTT has had enough of Nintendo's bully-boy tactics and challenging them now! As long as you legally own the game (have a licence) you can legally play it on any device/emulator.
A "license" only gives you limited ability to do with it what the license says you can do. A license does not mean that you own the game or the software that makes the game playable. That license might only give you rights to play it on official hardware. In which case you would be in breach of contract playing it on any other console other than the one it was designed for.
@@Rickbearcat yeah most licenses try to make you agree with strict terms to tell you as an owner can't do what you want with your own stuff. Just because those terms exist doesn't mean they hold any legal value, as proven again and again by rulings in many countries. In most countries, you are the owner of whatever you bought and can do whatever you want with it.

@@FAQUERETERMAX ...Is not LTT "distributing" protected IP information on content made for the express purpose of playing it on only official hardware?

@@FAQUERETERMAX that's great, America isn't other countries, in America what corporations say matters more than what the people say, they literally write the laws.
I agree with stuff like this. You bought both the switch and the game, so you should be able to use them as you wish (without distributing the games, of course)
Yea I'll back this
I could see potential legal trouble with playing a game on both devices at the same time. But for the rest this method is pretty much legal in most western countries. If you care about the legality of running Nintendo games that is.
Yeah but like 80% or more of people doing this do it to play games they haven't bought
@@CheapBastard1988 If you're capable of playing both games at the same time, I really doubt there'd be any problem. If, however, it's you and your brother playing the game at the same time, it could be called "distribution".
@@Markus-zb5zd That's the usual argument: remove rights from people because some individuals might commit crimes. Knives are not banned because people can use them to kill other people, neither ban cars because some crackheads might run on purpose over some pedestrian.
