    Capitulating to Nintendo’s lawyers only serves to silence individual rights to reverse engineer, repair, or modify devices consumers have legal ownership of, which Microsoft also has a commercial interest in abusing. Keep in mind that a DMCA request is not evidence of wrong doing, however few have the legal resources to contest it.

      Microsoft’s interests are not being sued. If you wanna take on that responsibility, have at it. Most people don’t for the sake of video games.
