@noiob (I mean, they had to blur game footage just to mitigate the takedown risk)

@xerz yeah that part is the illegal one

@noiob …fair use tho? (which Anthony argues about in the video)

@xerz fair use of the ROMs on the console?

@noiob no, fair use of the recorded video footage

also copying your own ROMs is legal

@xerz even when circumventing drm?

@noiob yep, that was determined back when Apple lost a case on jailbreak iirc

@noiob (please note that doesn’t necessarily mean you can copy stuff from streaming services, since you might not have been granted the media itself… I got no idea how that part works, let alone if it’s ever been tested on court…)

@noiob (…apparently Nintendo argues videogames aren’t software because it’s composed of more stuff than that… as if that wasn’t the case for all GUI software… lol)
