Because Walmart doesn't sue their customers for buying and improving upon their products.
Nintendo bites the hand that feeds. Treats their biggest fans like piles of subhuman garbage. Short of Nestlé, very few companies deserve a taste of their own medicine more than Nintendo. Fuck them.
Edit: And they've been this way for as along as I can remember. Back in the early 90s, Nintendo tried to sue to stop Game Genie from becoming a thing. Sega, on the other hand, made it an officially licensed product! Nintendo has never had any chill. I wish they were the ones that lost the console war instead of Sega. They don't deserve to be as popular and beloved as they are.
...and Sega isn't a console anymore because of bad decisions.
I don't think this is a good argument for your point
Bad decisions about the cost and timing of console releases and failure to support older systems. Nothing to do with IP management or legal decisions.
