Seems some immature kiddos figured out my method of custom profile pics, and decided to use that for evil in SMO via balloons (There's like 500 articles now, some of them talking out of their asses). I don't condone that behavior, and this is why we cant have nice things. =[

[PSA] Strong anti-piracy measures implemented by Nintendo for online.

WARNING – Nintendo are banning Game Cards individually to combat piracy (will affect pre-owned purchases)
by inNintendoSwitch

Looks like we've got confirmation that Nintendo is banning gamecart certificates (I guess people aren't taking my advice…). The relevant error for trying to use a gamecard with a banned cert is 0x1F727C — 2124-4025.
