In short, if you happen to hack your Switch or run emulators, you may find that it winds up getting bricked entirely.

I've decided that I'll skip Nintendo consoles moving forward and just use emulation if there's a game I really want. I'll buy the cartridge to cover myself ethically and just put it in a drawer.

Since Nintendo games never lose value apparently, just keep it sealed and sell it off when you get bored for a break even.
