    Rule #1 about going to court against a large company with good lawyers: don’t represent yourself, since there’s no way you’ll win, and the judgment will likely require you to cover at least some of Nintendo’s legal fees.

      “The man who represents himself in court has a fool for a lawyer and an idiot for a client.”

      This is only true if you prioritize your own well being.

      If you prioritize authentic truth you must go in alone and accept that the system will swallow you. No one knows your honest perspectives better than you, a lawyer will compromise your morality in order to protect you because for them this is just a means to an income, they don’t share your passion for justice.

      Basically become a token/martyr.

      What you gain is observable truth that the system is broken and makes you its victim trough bureaucratic oppression, giving you an ethical reason to rebel further against it.

      I very much DO NOT recommend this but in another way i feel like the ethics of the system are not frequently enough challenge by actual good.
