So I just got home and I did not prepare a dissertation on the subject, so I'm just gonna tell you the two issues I remember clearly off the top of my head.
they had a program that would sick lawyers on anyone that streamed/lets play'd Nintendo games, unless they signed a very invasive contract with nintendo that gave nintendo something like half their profits.
they are so grossly incompetent that when Tears of the Kingdom had its street date broken early, they sent their lawyers out to abuse DMCA to shut down any discussion or screenshots of the game, up to and including DMCA'ing their own twitter account promoting the game.. Which is stupid because the coverage was better than any coverage money could buy, and buy going full draconian on it they just looked ike out of touch assholes.
Theres plenty of other controversial and stupid bullshit from nintendo, both big and small.. and it just, to me, shows a disdain for the customer thats willingly giving them their hard earned money.
