Yeah this was my first moment also and largely why I will never pay for NSO+. How they treat the esport community is crazy.
I recommend going the extra mile and no longer buying their hardware or software.
Emulation is in a great state right now, and it's only getting better. The fewer resources scummy companies like Nintendo have from sales, the fewer resources they'll have to go after community products.
Really hoping this isn't a 3DS situation where they added a notch to gamecarts. Its so dumb that we can't use game consoles like a PC and just fucking install discs if we want to without a shitty checking system.
