The United States Federal Trade Commission has warned both Sony and Nintendo in a recent report. The organisation says that both Sony and Nintendo violate a product warranty act. This is because both companies require that consumers only use first-party products or else void their warranty. Things that it has picked up on is the common ‘Void If Broken’ stickers on commercial products and more.
