Despite the fearmongering going around about bricks, this is only online bans. Same thing they’ve always done, same thing Sony and Microsoft do too if you get caught there.
Frankly, if you try to go online with pirated games, you’re an idiot.
The problem is that updates are not automatically inserted in the flashcart. All the flashcart does is clone the original one as it was put on sale. Updates are always downloaded by the console and are not stored on the cart.
Let’s make a real world example: you go in a store and buy the cart for “disney dreamlight valley” for $40. You actually don’t know, but inside the cart there’s only a 34,6 MB file that only contains a splashscreen and a popup that says “connect to internet to download the update”. It then connects to Nintendo servers to download the 4.61 GB “update” that is the actual game. If you are blocked from Nintendo servers how can you get the update? Your console itself isn’t hacked, so you can’t just download it from random online sources with a different signature. You can dismiss the popup but then you can only admire your new $40 wallpaper.
This is the “gameplay” of said $40 game if you don’t have the possibility of installing updates:
Also it’s impossible to make legal backups with the Mig flash. Yes backups for personal use are legal, but under the DMCA bypassing the DRM is not legal. And the Mig flash is seen as a DRM circumvention device. And before y’all come at me no i don’t agree with this but Nintendo probably has the law on their side with this. Since players using the Mig are violating the EULA.
lol first response is a personal insult because someone takes it personally when someone else speaks truth that is disagreement with how they want things to be.

Only online ban? Nowadays most physical games are glorified DRM dongles that require a full download from online servers.
Banned from online means when you buy the $80 games all they can do is showing a cute icon on the launcher
And even if the full game is present on the cart, only a handful is ready at launch and not just a buggy alpha without the day one update
If you’re already doing piracy with a flashcart, do you even care about that? You’ll get your games elsewhere.

Well then I guess you probably shouldn’t use the flashcart.
yes exactly, fuck those users who paid $450 for a console and $80 for games, they can learn their lesson and buy a new $450 console
Are you buying your games or are you using the flashcart? Which is it?
it can be both. My hardware, my games and once i pay i should be able to do whatever the fuck i want with them
You can do what you want offline. But as I said above, if you take it online, you’re an idiot.
People are saying it happened to them with non-pirated games they put on the cartridge for convenience.
If you’re using a flashcart online at all, you’re an idiot.

Good little bootlicker

It’s like this:
You: “Apples are better for you than oranges”
An orange lover: “How dare you insult me”

No, it’s way worse than merely an account ban.
It’s not even an account ban, it’s just the console. And that is what Sony and Microsoft do too.
