Earn 2800 yuan and lose 200,000 yuan! Another pirated Switch store was penalized: the ending was too tragic

Recently, according to the Tianyancha App, the first-instance judgment of the first-instance judgment of the civil case of trademark infringement dispute between Tencent and Ren I Bank's electronic game console store in Yuexiu District, Guangzhou City was made public. The defendant, Ren I Bank's video game console store, publicly sold goods named "Nintendo NSSWITCH New National Bank", and prominently used "Tencent" and "Tencent" logos on the outer packaging, infringing Tencent's trademark rights.

The defendant, Ren We Bank's electronic game console store, sold about 5 infringing game consoles to the outside world during the period of operation, with a total profit of 2802.5 yuan, and the court finally demanded that the game console store stop selling any non-genuine Switch game consoles, and compensate Tencent for losses and reasonable rights protection expenses to attack 204129 yuan. This is probably one of the worst cracked Switch merchants so far, and the money earned is not enough to lose.

Xiao Lei learned that the non-genuine Switch game console sold in the game console store of Ren Yi Hang uses a tampered pirate system, which is what we call a "cracked version". At the same time, the merchant also privately modified the internal circuit of the Switch, possibly replacing the non-original battery with a larger capacity.

Cracked version of Switch although saved the money to buy the game cassette, but can not be online, crack the game is easy to bug things also very affect the experience, after all, and small partners online to better reflect the fun of Switch, for users who intend to use for a long time, the cracked version is not a suitable choice, and the "white prostitute" game is not friendly to developers and producers.

This kind of crack + magic correction of pirated product quality, failure rate is difficult to guarantee, may affect the consumer's evaluation of the genuine product, with the so-called "strongest legal department in the Eastern Hemisphere" and "Nanshan Pizza Hut" Nintendo and Tencent, will certainly not sit idly by. Not long ago, Nintendo officials issued a blocking order to a number of pirated Switch game download sites, cracking the game console and pirated games will not have a good ending.

Regardless of the large stores and small stores, the official also tells us with practical actions that as long as the sale of non-genuine Switch is found, it will be sanctioned by the "justice sledgehammer", which is also to better maintain its own revenue, ensure the normal market environment, and at the same time cause pressure to other merchants that sell pirated Switch.

In Xiao Lei's view, although the hardware of switch is slightly outdated, and the price of the game is not cheap, we should respect the genuine game and the genuine game machine, no one supports piracy, and no merchant is willing to take the risk. In addition, Nintendo should really consider the security of the Switch, and hope to update the hardware as soon as possible.
