I might have issues with 'Big N', but openly taunting them and flaunting games acquired via the seven seas method against them as well as putting links to the emulators used in the stream, that's beyond poking the bear. IANAL, but the company was well within the right to take that streamer to court.

yeah they do a lot of questionable bullying but this is case of 100% valid. even official channels can't stream pre-launch without permission let alone pirating em & telling people how to do it.

Go for pirating clout, Nintendo found out.
Lawsuit out, ninjas no longer in drought.

Yeah, normally I'm against Nintendo's overly-litigious nature, but this is a textbook example of hitting the finding-out stage.

That streamer has only himself to blame for this. He should have kept his mouth shut instead of drawing Nintendo to his shadiness.

While the getting this guy for piracy part is completely justified, going along with Nintendo's lies of painting emulators as illegal isn't true. Depending on how the cryptographic keys were acquired and portrayed there's some possibility of that being illegal but actually obtaining them isn't illegal. Please review the article with this in mind lest it be used to trample on consumers' rights again by Nintendo's trigger-happy lawyers.

People stream pirated games and ROMs all the time with zero issue. There's entire communities dedicated to "Kaizo Ironmon" which is a bunch of people playing modded Pokemon ROMs openly to tens of thousands of people with zero issue or consequences. The issue seems more he streamed unreleased games ahead of their release date and provided them to people from what I'm reading.
