Nintendo DS News: R4 ‘Piracy Enabling’ Carts Now Illegal In UK
I think by now I’ve made it known that I am frothingly anti-piracy, so the new ruling in the UK that bans the R4 Revolution and similar devices thrills me. The high court set a new precedent by adjusting that it is illegal for the R4 card to circumvent Nintendo’s security systems in order to [...]
