Anyone else find it weird that you can't take screenshots in the eshop? Like why would they put that restriction into the switch?

 

[Robert Shepherd]

So you can't take a screen shot of payment information

 

[Rolando Royster]

Tru that part yeah but I mean the actual game screens itself. That part I don't get

 

[Dean Truffleshuffle Pouakai]

Its to reduce carbon emissions.

 

[Gustavo Jordán Ramírez]

Same thing that why Ps4 don't let to take pictures of the interface and menues

 

[Joshua Hill]

For peoples protection.

 

[Nathan Philip Barclay]

Possibly because of Trademark privacy? And they don't want you to think you were the creators or distributer of the games.

 

[Jason James Grubb]

Why would you want to take a picture of th eshop?

 

[Rolando Royster]

The games in the eshop to post screenshots in let's say here and ask opinions on diff games and so on

 

[Jack KH]

Just find a picture on Google.

 

[Jermaul W]

Payment i for. Its a risk

 

[Guillaume Oak]

In case there's a scene that is not in the final version of the game? Remember the Watch Dogs controversy?

 

[Matthew Horvath]

I noticed that the other day when I saw that NBA game for £120 and tried to take a pic after I spat my coffee out.

Credit card protection aside, maybe there might be region-locked pricing in a few odd places or during certain events. If that was ever a thing, I can see why they wouldn't want to let people show screenshots. All of the "not fair" cries and rants would echo, literally, for decades.

 

[Essam Abbasi]

Umm... Idk.

 

[Eric Wynne Ho]

so you have to go there to find new stuff, cannot rely on the group....
