No. It has been shown repeatedly that many keys on “shady” sites come from stolen debit and credit card purchases. There has long been an issue with keys from the more shady websites being disabled because after the payment for it got returned.

You seem to have a VERY difficult time differentiating the idea of “legal” and “ethical.” It is LEGAL for people to resell keys that they get, but it is UNETHICAL for people to sell the codes that were generated for the purpose of promotion/reviews/etc. This is what makes them shady.

Why should Nintendo care about a bunch of people taking their fun party game seriously?

Kotaku has always been both serious reporting and Buzzfeed 

Here’s the entire quote, per Polygon article:

By amazing, you mean predictable? Most everyone likes sex, and a whole ton of people have “disturbing” fetishes. Japan didn’t invent paraphilias.
