Nintendo's Lawsuits Aided by Fans

Guppy06 writes "Last week there was a posting about Nintendo's efforts to crack down on people selling counterfeit Nintendo hardware and software, and there was at least one reply from a guy who reported someone to Nintendo. It turns out he's not alone; according to a posting at Nintendorks, NOA's Jodi Daugherty, their director of anti-piracy efforts, says it was helped by over 400 people reporting such kiosks to them."

    How is this not surprising? The flaw of console systems -- You not being able to modifiy them to suit your needs?

    As for pirating software -- I guess it's Nintendo's first time to take a crack at something like that -- but for what, nintendo's grip on the game market isn't as strong as it was 10 years ago anyway -- They should pay more attention to there next console and how it compares to the upcoming system (ps3) as opposed to people pirating games/hardware.

    How sad that you, and apparently other Nintendo fans, are so ready to call on the coercive power of the State; perhaps because this is the only occasion you will ever experience when that power is (apparently) at your service.

    Those vast powers I referred to, having grown to frightful proportions over many years, but particulary since the events just over three years ago, might perhaps be justly be pitted against some unprovoked, malevolent force that threatened Civilization itself, if such a threat existed; but against the sale of machines that play video games?

    The readiness of the State to use its violent power is all too troubling, but even more so is the readiness of the general public to accept such use.
