    You pirate one game -> nintendo restricts your console to only play pirated games. Funny

      It seems to be worse than that. Get a second hand console and it maybe already bricked as it looks like they only ban the console not the account. As per the lawsuit.

        Sony and microsoft have also done that for like a decade+. 2nd hand market was filled to the brim with people selling bricked consoles that couldn’t go online. Walmarts warranty changed over xbox’ because people would but a new 360, swap out the internals with their bricked consoles or broken consoles, and then return the “new” console back to Wal Mart.

      No. If you happen to try to fix it by doing a system wipe you play zero games. It’s literally a brick. Can’t do anything.
