Lol.
How much can a company really do to cut down the piracy? If we see from Sony who has had a bit more experience with pirates then Ninty has, then pirates are unstoppable

Pirating of Virtual Console games can be easily detected, best stick to free emulators
Lol.

Miniviews:
Spoiler!
That T&C quote seems far more focussed on mod chipping than on VC piracy, hence "accessory" and "device". I don't imagine we'll see many people ripping their Wiis open to remove their chips because of this.
AMEN, Nintendo.
Keep those pirates at bay so the rest of us can /enjoy/ the possibilities that have opened up.
First, Nintendo must be careful, in America at least. The US disregards half of the copyright conventions we are a party too (UK and Hong Kong can bugger off). Then we have fair use. And last to argue is the "useful" of "useful arts" in the US Constitution. The Wii is arguably a weapon of war designed to destroy us internally and idely (Boxing anyone??)
We own the hardware and usage rights to the operating system and all "End User Lisence Agreements" are on their face presented after the point of purchase and "uncontionable on their face," otherwise unenforcable by any court (of law).
Second, Hiroshima and Nagasaki do not justify the wholesale $#@! of American youth by Nintendo (of America.)
Third, Nintendo can keep their warrenty: Super Smash Brothers and absolute crap, or Chess?
Last, I want to know, If one buys Virtual Console Zelda, does the creator of Zelda get a royalty, and a pension fund, and a Digital Medium Award? I highly doubt it.
And beside the point, as out of my mind I may be,
Does Nintendo want a class action law suit??
Surely deliberatly breaking your product after the point of sale is unfair and monopolistic: See PS2 Laser scandal.
Is anyone as infuriated over this as I am?
"Everytime you buy from Nintendo God kills a kitten."
Thanks again to everyone working on the wii, and sorry if my comments are timeless and out of place.
Serves pirates right.
Although I havent exactly NOT pirated games from Nintendo.
