Wow, okay, so imagine this: you’re just chilling, looking for some cool games to, uh, acquire in a, let’s say, unofficial way, and then—bam!—NWS2U.com goes poof. Yep, U.S. authorities swooped in and poofed it into nonexistence. I guess folks loved grabbing Switch stuff from there—no shocker since it was pretty much the go-to hub for everything pirated on the Switch. Now? If you hit up the site, you get this serious-looking notice with all these official logos. Like FBI-level serious.
And the warning? Oh man, it’s like straight out of a movie. “This domain has been seized…” yada yada, legal stuff. Basically, it means wannabe pirates are gonna have to snoop around a bit more to grab those ROMs for their tricked-out Switches or whatever emulators they’re rocking on their phones or PCs.
Ah, Nintendo—they’re, like, the super paranoid parents of the gaming world. I mean, they ban folks using Mig Flash even if they’re just sticking to their own ROMs. And don’t even get me started on their weird USB-C hub vendetta. Only their official stuff works with this new Switch 2, which is wild. Imagine, some random dock might just stop working if Nintendo feels like it. Well, Brazil’s having none of it—they’re challenging this whole restrictive madness. But hey, if you get banned by mistake, Nintendo’s not totally heartless. Prove it was a mix-up, and they might just let you back in.
Speaking of the Switch 2, it’s like, everyone’s new favorite toy. Outselling the old Switch’s early numbers by over a million? That’s nuts. And sure, it’s not as beefy as the Steam Deck or ROG Ally X in terms of raw power, but hey, who cares when you’ve got all those exclusive titles that keep you hooked?
Anyway—wait, what was I saying? Oh right, Tom’s Hardware’s your buddy for staying in the loop. Seriously, hit that follow button on Google News if you want the latest deets. Who wouldn’t want all those juicy updates right in their feeds?
