What is the crime here ?

Is this a DMCA violation for using modchips to defeat an IP protection scheme ?

I am not up to date on the current jurisprudence here - if I clean-sheet reverse engineer (Nintendo hardware) is it considered illegal to create and market modchips based on that ?

Or did they have proprietary code/firmware/loaders copied into them ?
