...I'm still waiting for a chance to actually buy a Switch. And not "used with a +$100-$200 markup", either.

Just in case anyone thinks the Senran Kagura thing is a little off color, it's pretty well known for being quite proud of the fact that SK is basically pure fanservice. The artist has actually worked on some porn games on the side, and the producer is famously quoted:

The Senran Kagura series will continue to run non-stop.
That is the calling of a NINJA.
They run faster and jump higher than anyone.
They can easily jump over people’s expectations.

These games still have the potential to grow big and large.
Just like the girls’ chests.

Yeah, i respect people who have a lot of passion. It's like when they asked the creator of Nier about porn about his character.

You'd have to steal his system and buy it for him without him noticing I suppose...?

Or just learn the login credentials for his Nintendo Account, log into the eShop and buy it for him. It'll download to his Switch automatically.

Yeah, it would, unless you just input another payment option. Shouldn't be too complicated.

As you said, just getting him an eShop card is pretty impersonal. I dunno if you have the lead-time, the materials, or the (fairly minimal) skills, but I've seen people using templates to make Switch-style boxart for digital only releases and putting them on jewelcases. If you have the jewelcase and access to a suitable printer, it would be pretty easy to google some Wonder Boy art, mock-up some box-art, print it out, slip it in, and then put a gift card in there.

It's still just a gift card, but at least there's some effort and thought put into it, and there's a physical item if that's something your dad's into.

It makes me both laugh, and be sad, that this was necessary.

There is no legit Nintendo Switch emulator.

Yet. It's only a matter of time. I'd honestly be surprised if someone came up with one so quickly.

Well, they need to be able to buy one first in order to develop an emulator for it. Pretty clever of Nintendo to limit production like that.

Yeah oddly enough we are FINALLY getting 3ds emulators worth a dang (like... they actually can play a lot of games now!) and their perfection is sort of in the works.

Even the Wii-u is getting its emulator.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but emulators themselves aren't necessarily illegal, but distributing actual ROMs are?

I believe it is the opposite (Emulators themselves are legal)... sort of... There is a complicated legality.

Even ROMs are kinda in the grey area but you got the gist of it.

But lets just say I am happy Nintendo doesn't make the laws.

They are perfectly fine stealing other people's money... and by steal... I don't mean "rip people off so much it is theft" I mean... actual factual stealing xD
