Oh look, we once again have this absurd "game console" carveout. When someone can explain what makes game consoles different from any other computer, please let me know.
Nintendo has done a lot of litigation to claim that game console alterations (modding, but also by definition repairs) enables circumvention of their DRM.
Most computers don't try to lock out their owners from administrative access, but video game consoles usually do.
Which is b.s., but I guarantee that's why they got the exemption.
