This is fine. But when Nintendo does it against people that aren’t cheaters, like homebrew devs or emulator devs, thats not okay.

Take note Nintendo. I mean, I know they won’t, but I wish the dinosaurs running the company would figure it out sooner rather than later.

I was going to ask, “Who the hell pays for cheats,” but then I remembered that the mobile gaming industry is a thing. Sooo, I guess there’s pretty well-established precedent for this sort of nonsense.

One would and wouldn’t be surprised. I just abandoned a texas poker app on mobile and it’s sickening to see how many people pay up cheaters just to get billions and even a trillion chips. Then I see them on the table and they always win.

I’ve dropped every multiplayer mobile game I’ve ever had because of cheaters. Most recent was Sonic Forces, because once you get up in the ranks, just about every race would include someone who just ignores hazards.

Mobile multiplayer games are just not worth it in any capacity. Hell, mobile games in general, I’d say, given the proliferation of positively abusive advertising schemes.
