Will I be detained if I have a device with an emulator installed while visiting the museum

Just don't post about your visit to YouTube.

"...filled with framed lawsuits and litigations against their fans."

They can go suck on a tailpipe and die in the sewer.

Museum visitors are given 10 digital coins they can use to play the games, but be warned: it’s not possible to buy additional ones, so players will need to strategize and choose wisely.

This is so idiotic, yet somehow still 100% on brand for Nintendo.

No one at Nintendo knows how to run a successful business anymore. They're just profiting off their forebears decisions.

The switch was a really interesting games console, that they did absolutely nothing with.

It's not a business, it's a museum

No, a museum is part of culture and arts. They aren't there to make bank.

An art museum is. This is run by Nintendo, it's advertising/ commercial

[-] Stovetop@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I'm assuming it's to make sure there's not long waits to try them. Giving a set number of tokens to visitors means they can roughly control the amount of time someone spends with those games. One person can't just buy 100 coins and spend all day on the same game.

Could have just done a ticketing system reserved in advance with fixed time blocks, though. But then your museum tour is on a schedule.

It almost reads like a satire article, it's quite ridiculous.

[-] Rampsquatch@sh.itjust.works 16 points 2 days ago

It sounds more like a shitty arcade.

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 22 hours ago

Pretty much all modern arcades just charge you for entry. No one pays for the individual games anymore because no one would do it in this day and age as it would be seen as overly expensive.

So when's the cease and desist coming?

[-] sparky@lemmy.federate.cc 22 points 2 days ago

What are they exhibiting? Lawsuits?

[-] PunchingWood@lemmy.world 46 points 2 days ago

The games there better not run on any emulators.

First ride will be a court room with Weird Al’s “I’ll sue ya” playing as elevator music

Art galley of all the famous…cases they won, special wing reserved for the patents xd

[-] DaMonsterKnees@lemmy.world 25 points 2 days ago

Followed immediately by the world's first execution over counterfeit entrance tickets. $60 bucks is $60 bucks.

Nintendo when I agree to the terms and conditions so my children can have fun for an hour

[-] sirico@feddit.uk 11 points 2 days ago

Someone takes a photo "six years dungeon!"

[-] secret300@lemmy.sdf.org -4 points 2 days ago

Only museum that people would actually enjoy if oil activists thew soup on the exhibits

[-] Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com -4 points 2 days ago

Never thought I'd say this, but I'd be down to vandalize this "museum".
