I don't really see how the new agreement is any more restrictive than the previous one?
As a Linux gamer the idea of unauthorized software is absolutely absurd. Also spending billions on "security" to make sure only approved games are played then approving slop.
But I didn't agree to their user agreement
How is retropie still able to operate? Seems like 9 out of 10 people who buy a raspberry pi are using it with retropie to play retro games. Seems like something that holds that much of the emulator industry share would be targeted by Nintendo.
Subsequently, if I know someone who knows someone who has a retropie for gaming, what's the worst case scenario that could come from Nintendo shutting down retropie's ability to provide the means to emulate? Will it be fine as long as the OS isn't updated any further? Just run the emulators and roms already installed on it as long as no new emulators or roms are added after the possible crack down?
You can say 9 out of 10 buying a raspberry pie are setring up retro pie for emulating, but 98 out of 100 people emulating aren't using a raspberry pie to do it.
