Nintendo's claim that emulation 'stifles innovation' isn't just absurd—it's hypocritical

The fan emulation scene has not only lead to countless innovations over the years, it's directly benefited Nintendo.
You're viewing a single thread.
It stifles innovation in the same way that museums and libraries stifle innovation ie. in no way
Good analogy, what a shit take from Nintendo.
Like nintendo and emulation though, most book publishers would be more than happy if Libraries went away. They are trying to make sure that they maintain more control over digital libraries than they could with physical libraries.
True, I would argue that overall emulation increases brand awareness and promotes video games as a whole. Would the likes of Mario and Pokemon be as popular if the classic games were not readily available, especially 20-30 years ago?
Love this take
Really, it should create more innovation They should be asking themselves what are they doing wrong with their new releases that's making people prefer decades old games.
