“after he uploaded footage of a Breath of the Wild multiplayer mod he commissioned and released to the public”

lets time travel back to Smash Bros Brawl project M mods stories on Kotaku.

Maybe had something to do with the multiplayer mod being released a month before Nintendo’s (multiplayer-less) sequel to the game is going to come out. The Youtuber probably thought this was great timing to release it, it would get a lot of attention with the release of the sequel. Well, it did.

Seems like a pretty straight forward case of ‘fucked around , found out’. 

companies want people to buy and enjoy their products, but only on their terms.

I'm not saying Nintendo's response was the right one, because it wasn't, but I do think it makes sense. These aren't PC games; using mods requires breaking Nintendo's terms, because you have to either emulate the game or mod your system.

If you’re modding the game, you’re playing a copy of it on an emulator. That’s Nintendo’s issue. They see him promoting mods and to them that’s the same as promoting piracy.

He needs a new job. Living off other peoples property and asking after the fact is absurd.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

fans have wondered if the Hero of Time would get to explore in the opposite direction as well

At what point are we as a country willing to say the issue is white men! Political unrest, literally the white mans fault. Climate disaster, literally white men at fault. Mass shootings, again literally white men commit the vast majority of these crimes. Now we get to add espionage to the list.

If ANY other group in…

I am not someone you would call super patriotic or anything like that, but someone leaking documents that endanger our military, secret service operatives, and our allies, is not someone who I would call a hero. Especially, if their only purpose was for internet clout among a bunch of immature, gun worshiping, racist…

Leaking data as part of whistleblowing against the government doing shit things is absolutely a heroic act.

Leaking data to get respect from racists/facists? Fuck noooooooo, extra bonus points for helping Putin with this dumb dumbleak.

Not surprised to that he turned out to be a racist piece of shit.

Instead of leaking them to his teenage buddies, he should’ve just sold them to the Saudis. Then he’d be fine.

Oh fuck off. Making up a scenario that doesn’t exist to say racism is somehow acceptable by comparison makes no sense.

It’s a troll, click their name and check their comment history. Just ignore it like its parents did.

“Treasonous dumbass” is probably a more succinct descriptor. I don’t agree with using “gun enthusiast” as a pejorative on the same level as “racist”. He’s all of those things, but they’re tangential to just being a seditious piece of shit.

What’s this ‘was’ crap. He still is, right now, a racist piece of shit.
