Go for it, Nintendo. Emulation has already been proven in courts to not be sufficient evidence for wrongdoing. Also:

However, its latest move feels particularly heavy-handed, as it has issued a copyright strike against a YouTube channel that reviews emulation handhelds.

Go fuck yourself. I hope you get hit with an anti-SLAPP across your litigious faces.

The youtube channel would first need to be willing to take Nintendo to court.

Naturally. I can hope for it, but I would never expect them to counter-sue. They're the person harmed, so they get to decide what justice looks like for them, and sometimes people just want to go back to normal.

Sanctions are really the only thing the judge has at their disposal, and I doubt Nintendo's lawyers are dumb enough to get sanctioned.
