Bob, you may need to blur more of the footage. The claimed part of Russ's video only showed the _title card_ of a game on the app launcher, not the game's title screen or gameplay. Really, people should be blurring out literally every Nintendo product, bleeping out the name of the company and all their properties, etc. Treat everything they've ever made as if it's too obscene for anyone to see or hear. This eliminates the copyright-based attack vector they use to file bogus strikes, takes away free advertising, dings their family-friendly brand image, and makes a strong point about how ridiculous their behavior is.

[@redwidow1358]

The issue with the used games getting dumped isn't with willful and malicious actors. It's about people who just *don't know* that games have unique identifying information on them, and that Nintendo will ban that game with that ID. There's a strong chance that someone buys this device, thinking they're buying a free game machine, because they literally just do not know how these systems work, and then just resell the game or get a refund without thinking anything of it. As a furthering of this conversation, what happens if a customer buys a physical game from a store, gets the error code that says this copy of the game is banned, and wants a refund? Will that customer be able to get their money back? Or will they be suspected of ripping the game themselves and running it on two Switches? Do we as buyers have any recourse in this scenario?

[@WoahthereIan]

Has anyone ever been banned for this? You’d think it’d happen by now but I don’t see actual evidence. Nintendo knows they can’t ban on this premise because of the harm it’d do to unsuspecting buyers on the second hand market. I think your comment is fearmongering a little

[@beardalaxy]

I think if you are going through all of this trouble, you'll either already know that they have unique IDs or you'll find out in your research if you didn't already know. If people just want free games, there is already a much better and ACTUALLY FREE way of doing it, being modding your console, which they're probably going to do instead. That doesn't require purchasing games and returning them or really trying to find these raw dumps. Even if it has happened, I can see it being so extremely uncommon that either Nintendo wouldn't do anything about it, or if you did get wrongfully banned you could get in touch with their customer support to verify things. They actually do have really good support.

[@redwidow1358]

@beardalaxy You would be surprised how many consumers know just enough to understand the process for getting free games, but not enough to know anything else, because that's all they *wanted* to learn. It happens all the time in the hacking servers, where people go for guidance and support with getting their consoles modded. And to clarify, this product exists, mostly, for people who *cannot mod their console,* or who lack the technical knowledge, and motivation to attain it. Most Switches are not hackable, by a longshot, without an expensive modchip and installation fee, or learning microsoldering. The drag-and-drop nature of the product means you never really have to *think* about how it works, as long as you know some basic functions of a computer. As for bans, they absolutely have happened. They are automatic. Once the logs exist, it becomes a matter of when, not if. The rise in popularity of these products will only incite a further crackdown from Nintendo's side, as the issue becomes more widespread.

[@KiraSlith]

12:06 There was an incident with copies of Pokemon Omega Ruby on 3DS suffering exactly this problem, but after the backlash caused by a rash of people buying used carts with tainted UIDs, Nintendo has become a little more careful, only going after only UIDs that appear a dozen times or more at once. Most public dumping groups strip the UID from their dumps entirely as well, so it shouldn't be an issue anymore as long as the same cart doesn't get passed around a bunch.

[@DammitJeff]

sweating bullets over here for my own personal reasons😶Best of luck bob. A real shame what happened to Russ :(

[@KingKrouch]

It's funny, there's no issues with ripping your music CDs through iTunes to use on your iPod, but for some reason, console games are exempt from this? Didn't Sony get a lawsuit for putting malware on music CDs in the early 2000's to prevent people from ripping said music CDs? EDIT: The banning issue wouldn't apply if you could find a way to generate a ticketless dump. That said, I imagine the lack of a ticket would trigger a system ban if you tried playing said "cartridge" online.

[@thechargedcreeper3967]

I saw a review of a previous version a while back. All (except maybe 1?) of the tickets are required to be present for the Switch to read it. Some certificate switching from donor carts is possible, but detectable if Nintendo wants it to be

[@Nova2127U]

Having no game certificate at all does indeed get you banned, Nintendo only looks at a couple of things, one is making sure the game certificate is there and valid, two is making sure the certificate is not being reused on multiple games to prevent both Gold Points abuse and piracy, and three, if the game utilizes Nintendo Switch Online, the game certificate is sent to the server along with the device token, and if both are valid, the server will give back a application token. If you are banned, you won't ever have a device token as that is given by a different server (dauth server, or device authorization), which looks at your device certificate to see if it's been banned, if it isn't, you get your device token.

[@TheAbsol7448]

The uncertainty is around encrypted games. A GBA game has no encryption on it, so dumping it is entirely fine legally, but something like a Vita or Switch game is a bit hazy.

[@deathtrooper2048]

Devices that let you play games on a competitor's device are illegal, this was established with Atari and Intellivision.

[@KingKrouch]

@@deathtrooper2048 No, Bleem technically won their lawsuit, but they were bled out of money thanks to the cost of the lawsuit. Bleem had a Sega Dreamcast version. Only reason console platform holders don't allow emulators is because they don't want their relationship with other platform holders to burn. Didn't stop Rare Replay or the Goldeneye Remaster from having an N64 emulator built-in, so I guess platform holders only really like emulators if it's not at their expense.

I really appreciate your video since it fully turned me over from wanting my own to "I would literally rather just swap my cartridge at that point". I was hoping to find something to make it less of a hassle when I'm at home and wanting to quickly change out my games without buying all my physical games as digital copies . The only thing that would truly suck about a hypothetical where Nintendo strikes/bans both users is I honestly don't know the origins of at least half my games at this point. Idk about everyone else, but outside of the second hand market I've just been full on gifted copies of used games from friends who aren't attached anymore.

I love your videos and editing style, man.

Switch emulation will have a breakthrough after it stops being relevant. If thr Switch 2 has any tech based on thr original Switch, it'll probably follow too. All that said, Nintendo doesnty get one brown penny from me, since they are so hostile to foes and friends alike.

The Nintendo and player relationship is like being in marriage with an abusive spouse.

Bob, I say this in all seriousness ... My local library LENDS switch games. I presume if the game ban happens it will be a BIG problem in a lot of places.

Ticketed dumps have been possible for a long time. The only real (yet small scale) damage for an easy to obtain dumper to cause is to places where obtaining carts is cheap or free. For example: A library lending games makes it easy to borrow, dump, return. As soon as they go online at the same time, it gets flagged and both devices get banned. You gain nothing by dumping and going online, you're just putting yourself at risk. Similarly, if you were flipping games (got them cheap and are selling them for a higher price), keeping a dump and going online causes the same issues. If you're being malicious and intentionally going online, you're going to run out of consoles. I guess you could upload the dump somewhere, report it to Nintendo and get it banned. A ticketed dump doesn't really matter to Nintendo as their system just applies bans, and they don't care about the second hand market. Ticketless dumps are available in abundance but will keep you offline if you don't want a ban. Either way, I don't think the dumper is really causing a large scale problem. Happy to be educated otherwise though

I feel like a lot of the people who will buy games, rip them, and sell them, won’t even know that they could get banned for that.

Never skip the Bob ads. Those are a show itself

[@ENNEN420]

gaming companies "protecting their intellectual property" have one thing in common with countries "advancing scientific research": They haven't realized that just because they can do something, doesn't mean they should.

That was a heck of a sponsor throw 😂

You got me to finally giggle over dumper at the end.

Does the dumper also dump save data
