Logical sense? I can't really just play the pirated game on my home electricity. Just like you can't sue the road when a car runs you down.

Well, let me put it this way. Why don't they sue Dell then? If Dell computers didn't exist, pirated games couldn't be played! Or sue themselves, because if hacked Switches didn't exist, pirated games couldn't be played!

I really can't just play the pirate game on a software emulator either. It needs an operating system to run on, hardware to run the operating system on, etc.

Of course, it doesn't make sense. But Nintendo has infinite money and infinite lawyers compared to these people. That means they can do whatever they want with the law.

That's when you go to the judge and ask for a summary dismissal on the grounds that it is ridiculous (they should be suing the power companies instead!). Maybe they say yes and you walk away.
That. Literally doesn't make any logical sense. That's like arguing that if computers didn't exist, the leak would be fairly inconsequential ... or if electricity didn't exist, the leak would be fairly inconsequential.
