Oh. Joy. I am certain the Mario odyssey modders who have been showcasing hide and seek along with prop hunt as ways to play the game with friends after enjoying the official experience will appreciate their hard work being flagged and demonitized.

Can't wait for Nintendo to go after the romhackers after this, and eventually cleanse all of the internet of their IP, causing people to just not know or care about their IPs anymore. Please Nintendo, figuratively shoot yourself in the face more.

I thiiiink they're modding the game but still playing on official hardware, so they might be in the clear for now (until Nintendo goes further)

I suppose that do have that plausible deniability for now, though I know at least one of them isn't using official Nintendo hardware. Conveniently the same one who "moved to New Zealand" a day before totk came out as they could play on stream 'legally' a day early.
