Nintendo Asks Wii U Owners To Refrain From Using "Unauthorised" Online Services

Nintendo: Remember kids, you bought the console, but we decide how you use it.
This is just them covering their butts from bad publicity or a law suit. They are telling you that their tech support will not help you use an unauthorized online server and if you get hacked, it is your own fault. Nothing particularly weird about it. No more than just about every piece of free software includes a document explaining that the software does not include a warranty.
Pretty sure this guy's not actually a velociraptor. He probably watched Jurassic Park. But the thing is, that movie took some... ahem ...."liberties" with facts about dinosaurs.
Most people hear "velociraptor" and think 6 foot tall lizardy looking dinosaurs that can open doors. But in reality, it's more like 2-3 feet tall, kind of bird like in both appearance and behavior.
That kid who said it's like a 6 foot turkey would have actually been accurate if he had said like a turkey. Just......a regular ol turkey, except with teeth, and carnivorous. Still a terrifying thing to stumble on in the wild, as they were pack hunters. Now imagine a turkey with teeth hunting you. Except it's like 15 of the fuckers.
So yeah. This guy probably ISN'T a velociraptor. He's probably a Utah raptor. Which is what Jurassic Park based almost everything on.
Now, all that being said, fuck you Nintendo! You shut down the servers! I'd LOVE to have MiiVerse and online services through your official services.....BUT THAT'S NOT ON THE TABLE, NOW IS IT YOU NARSASITIC ASSHOLES!
Thanks for pointing the Jurassic Park inaccuracy! Indeed we...er the Velociraptors were not as depicted in that film,
wethey were covered in feathers and much more similar to a modern turkey both in size and aspect than to what you see in the film. By the size of it, the film probably depicted a Deinonychus, which was another dromaeosaurid of a size that went up to 3 mt (roughly 11 ft).The Utahraptor, another dromaeosaurid, was double that size, making it too big to what the film calls a Velociraptor.
Yeah, but think about how cool the word velociraptor sounds.... so really... they were probably right, and science is just gonna have to take the L on this one. Rename all the stuff so that retroactively jurassic park is right. Problem solved.
A lot of people seriously misjudge turkeys as well. They picture the little dog-sized white bastards you see on farms. But out here in the forest our turkeys are 4 ft tall and their back legs are covered with murder spikes ending in feet with 3-inch talons.
In Japan they are legally allowed to say that. Even modifying a save game file is illegal in Japan.
