Now do it for game consoles
Yes! It’s good they’re doing this. It would be better if they weren’t letting Nintendo brick homebrewed consoles.
Yakuza is heading your way
Praise be.
Does that mean I can get a 3rd party eShop on my Nintendo Switch? 😆
Ha, that would be excellent. Don’t forget Sony and PlayStation.
Yes you can! And Nintendo will then sue your ass off :-D
Me: but I’m completely following the law!
Nintendo: Your point?
I wish, but this seems specifically aimed at smartphones only. However, this could open the door for Nintendo to make their own eshop for Android or Apple, and I suspect that’s what the gov is going for because it would directly benefit Japanese companies at the expense of foreign ones.
Why would Nintendo want a shop on Android and Apple? They don’t own those platforms…
They do make games for phones though. I haven’t heard of any in a while but I remember some dust being kicked up about Mario coming to smartphones about a decade ago.
I’m on my phone now actually. Let me look.
Yep.
Huh, I never knew. That’s interesting!
They sell games on those platforms
They would love to not give a cut
