Nintendo has been putting anti-piracy protection in all of their consoles since the NES in the 80's. Every single one was cracked eventually. Oh, but surely they must be getting better? Nope, the Switch was cracked less than a year from release.

And Nintendo controls the hardware in this situation. Streaming services do not.
