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.

"So, those guys generate positive advertisement for our games. How do we stop it, and make sure that public opinion shifts to «Nintendo is cringe and you're a loser if you play this shit»?"

Also, what the fuck is with Japanese law, criminalising modding?

Typical Japanese bullshittery. I watch sumo, and even when there was no official way to watch outside Japan the sumo association would get youtube accounts showing matches taken down. Tons of industries are still run by technological dinosaurs.

Japan was already living in the 2000's back in the 80's. The problem is that 40 years later, they're still living and thinking in the exact same way.

"Japan has had the best 2000s tech since the 80s" I think is the succinct phrase you were looking for

It's not just about the tech, it's about their mindset. They're stuck in that era mentally.
