Honestly, I’m an advocate for emulation and game preservation and all that, but I’m surprised this is only now the case. I don’t have the nerve to try to hack my device if it’s the currently being supported platform. If they’ve already abandoned it then it’s fair game but the currently active console with your current actual information on there that gets regular updates? You’re just playing with fire.

It’s like taking it upon yourself to make an “HD remake” of the IPs owned by famously stringent companies who aren’t afraid to put the hammer down on these things.

their device. Your own device, such as a Steam Deck, you don't have to hack, you can run anything on it however you like.

I generally agree, I only really hack consoles that aren't being supported anymore, but I don't like how over-reaching the end user agreement is sounds like it's likely to be abused
