You basically have no rights under modern copyright law. Derivative content is extremely restricted and pretty much arbitrarily controlled by the copyright owner. This is by design.

If you want to change that, don't complain to Nintendo, complain to your representatives who made the system that way to begin with. Nintendo has the rights at the moment, while you don't.

Ah yes. That should do the trick.

I complain with my voice and vote but BigCorps will complain with their dollars, which will buy more than just a handful of votes.

It's not exactly correct to say dollars = votes, but it's about as close to correct as saying we live in a democracy.
