https://mynintendonews.com/2025/07/02/brazil-nintendo-is-now-facing-legal-action-over-ability-to-brick-switch-2-console/

>Procon-SP, the Sao Paulo branch of Brazil’s Consumer Protection and Defence program, has stated in a press release that it is challenging Nintendo‘s ability to brick Nintendo Switch 2 consoles when it wants, citing certain aspects of it “abusive.”
>As we already know Nintendo can permanently restrict you from accessing the Nintendo eShop and online play if they believe you have used unauthorised accessories or pirated software. This leads to the devastating 2124-4508 error code.
>Procon-SP says that canceling subscriptions or services without explanation violates consumer protection rules in Brazil. Nintendo has said that it has appointed a local law firm to handle the matter.

Dare I say Brazil is... Based?

brazil isn't small

Jesus Christ the comments. Why are Japanese people such corpo bootlickers?

>Don't sell in Brazil anymore.

>Brazil, a land where pirates call themselves a country.

>Until Brazil itself resolves this issue on its own, sales in Brazil should be suspended and consoles should be turned over to Japan.

>So the switch was a cultural standards judgment switch.

>Piracy has always been the norm in Brazil. The country is no longer willing to let people play legitimate products.

>If you have a problem with it, just don't buy it.

>It's funny that only the countries that have been illegally copying and playing so far are complaining about Nintendo.

>So Brazil doesn't need Switch 2.

>It does not mean that it is okay to steal if poverty is the reason.

>You agree to the terms of service and then complain when you can't use it because you violated the terms. Just go kick a ball around for the rest of your life.

>Gonna stop selling them, just like they did in China. They deserve it.

>This is the country of the person who insulted the losing Japanese team in e-sports with an atomic bomb image

>So this is what I mean about thieves being fierce

>Not only game consoles, but most electronics are the responsibility of the individual if they are modified without permission and stop working.

>They're not sold in China, and Brazil doesn't seem to know that.

>Don't sell in countries that declare they won't buy software.

>It's a modern fumi-e, and I don't think Nintendo gives a shit, since they read the terms and agreed. Well, only the criminals are making a fuss about it.

>What are you talking about? Just don't use illegal tools?
>If you have a problem with this, don't play Nintendo games

>You don't think Nintendo's legal department is prepared for that level of logic?

I guess the switch is too advanced for the uncivilized

Why do you accept as a given that you should be punished for pirating software? Have you become buck broken from all the years of nonstop ass rape from corporations? Could you imagine if your PC or your phone was bricked because you modified the operating system or installed "unauthorized software"?

for canceling something if you hack your device. seems pretty easy to figure out why it happened.
but i guess it could be cool if they change the error code to "haha lol you pirated geemu get fucked no online for you xD"

>>714494775
And that makes bricking your console and banning the account you paid an online subscription okay because...?

>>714494818
oh no. what will Nintendo do without the country that doesn't buy their shit?

>>714494949

>to add insult ot injury, your my nintendo account may get banned too
an online ban is a brick

>>714495032
Nintendo is one of the largest shareholders of Nippon steel, which has most of their assets in Brazil. the Brazilian government is chomping at the bit to come up with some reason to impose a billion dollar fine on Nintendo

>>714494818
I don't think Nintendo has assets in Brazil

>>714495267

It has always been a problem, you've just been raped into submission

what does that matter when you are already pirating games?

>>714495267
>stop making me suffer the consequences of my actions!

>>714495418
You should still be able to use online services.

>>714495376
Bottomline is that if online play is that important to you then don't hack/pirate. Personally couldn't give a shit if I can play mario kart or whatever online or not.

Bottom line is if you do t live in a shit hole a consumer protection agency will step in for you so you can use the hardware you paid for

>>714495030

GIGABASED, BEST TIMELINE

This news have blown up the wrong way and retards are arguing a non-issue matter. Brazil IS NOT SUEING NINTENDO over bricking consoles. Niggers are just copy pasting the same translated news without reading the source. Brazil just wants Nintendo to have legal representation in the country in case of the inevitable consumer court cases that happens for various reasons, mainly repair support. Unfortunately, Brazil don't give a shit about the principle of owning private property, it is just asking the company to follow consumer rules, the government don't give a fuck if your console was banned because you pirated shit, that's on yourself.

Sometimes i feel like Americans intentionally remove the existence of Brazil from their heads and only bring it on again when it's important to them. You don't see this kind of treatment with Mexico, Colombia, Peru or any other Latino country. The big country, which is the only country in south america that speaks Portuguese, that is 24/7 in the minds of huge corporations and globalists is somehow too distant to everyone else, it might as well not even exist.

why aren't the mods banning the hunter spammer?

Good observation, the upper western coast is where the Amazon forest is, and it has a big problem with parasitic international NGOs, the state of Amazonas has more than 100,000 NGOs alone, they are often creating indigenous reserves, and getting rid of everyone who lives there, there are areas where no Brazilian can step their foot on, but everyone around the globe (especially europoors) can.
It's very revolting, but this shitty government stopped caring about sovereignty ages ago.

Well until the Switch era they weren't.

>>714499012
So am I, the data is out there. Most of these NGOs are funded by Open Society Foundations and Ford Foundation, and even the Rockefeller foundation.
If you want to deny it that's fine.
But if you are referring to the part of getting rid of the people there, i'm referring to the indigenists, they got rid of people who were in "protected indigenous areas", there are cases where plantations were destroyed.
This is very real, it's all a globalist Psyop to not only divide Brazil socially, but also take our lands from the inside.

Being a pirate is knowing the risks that are involved and being smart enough to avoid or mitigate them.

>>714495030
Some people do things like that though. There was famously a (Japanese?) fursuiter that demanded people take down pics of the suits they sold if the photographer was using them in a way he didn't like.
I also think Nintendo looks at this like violating a warranty, even though the bricking is their fault. Like using a hammer to type on a keyboard, and then getting mad when the keyboard breaks. Again, it's their own, self-invented breakage, I just think that's their philosophy about this.

>>714509096
youll become poor eventually and what makes you think they care about your race

>>714509453
>violating a warranty
that's not even remotely comparable.
imagine not being allowed to enter a sports club because you have clothes they don't like (e.g. tanktop). or getting banned from entering a cinema because you have a phone with a camera
that's how retarded banning people is

>>714496084
Yeah but that's the government, BMW isn't bricking cars if their drivers were speeding
