        Yeah, the two aren’t mutually exclusive; Nintendo is a shitty litigious company and the dude is a fucking idiot. The first rule of Switch piracy is that you don’t talk about Switch piracy, and this dude was blatantly streaming a game that hadn’t even released yet.

        Yeah, broadcasting to the world that you’re playing a game that hasn’t been released yet isn’t a great idea. Particularly when it’s Nintendo. It’s pretty common knowledge how petty they are even with stuff that’s less flagrant
