Nintendo user agreement tweak threatens to brick your Switch 2 and Nintendo Account if you mod or use "unauthorized" games
Briefly

Nintendo has revamped its User Agreement, intensifying restrictions on modifying hardware and distributing derivatives. The changes particularly target activities related to hacking the Nintendo Switch 2 for emulation, with consequences that could lead to permanent bans on accounts or devices. Previously lenient clauses have been expanded, explicitly prohibiting actions like bypassing account services and requiring users to adhere strictly to the intended use of their devices. This move may further affect emulator developers, especially following recent controversies surrounding popular emulation projects.
The updated Nintendo User Agreement heavily targets hardware modification, stating breaches may lead to permanent inoperability of Nintendo devices or accounts.
New clauses in the User Agreement directly address the distribution of derivative works, mainly impacting emulator creators.
