Actually, I have seen many, many comments by people after the ‘Yuzu’ incident that because of this action, they will now pirate Nintendo games, instead of paying them. There’s a comment in this thread saying they will not buy Switch 2 but emulate it, just to spite them.

Regularly seeing those comments so many times just made me inquire this. Though, now thinking about it, maybe there isn’t any other answer other than “spite” itself. If not for pirating, then at least for the comments.

As for piracy for other reasons, it’s a different discussion with many nuances, so don’t think this is the right place for it. Also emulation and piracy aren’t the same thing, even though Nintendo won’t like to think so, emulating your legally owned game is completely legal. And I don’t think there has been any judgement against dumping your own keys and using those. But again, different discussion.
