Nintendo gets a 1UP on piracy
 
This has been news to almost every Australian Gamer/Pirater. Basically
http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/s...45-952,00.html

The sad thing is he is 24 years old and he will be paying that off for the rest of his life. But on the plus side he is now world famous to every gamer on Earth

Just asking..what are the chances of getting caught downloading music,movies,shows,anime,etc illegally?

Andromeda 02-09-2010 09:55 PM

Very slim at best but he got caught because Australia was the first country to get that game and it was leaked onto the net 1 week before its release in Australia

Hessah 02-09-2010 10:07 PM

He was probably hosting it on his own server, all in Australia and stuff...?

That's heaps quick that they've finalised the case in 2-3 months..

He must not have given them jurisdiction issues...

The picture is wrong. He didn't get popped for DOWNLOADING the game, he got popped for UPLOADING the game.

The big companies go after the people that SHARE the games/music/whatever. Just be careful about what you upload/share.

Good thing I don't share because I'm such a selfish bastard.

Lirange 02-10-2010 11:52 AM

Well I don't have to worry as much then

Eh, yeah, I know, but to be honest torrents really aren't worth it these days with new stuff. Getting them from scene release sites tend to be faster, at least where I am. And it usually seems to be the newer stuff the companies really, really monitor. You're probably safe torrenting with a lot of the older/obscure stuff.

Fire Emblem was a good game? Hmmm...I wonder why I don't see it on the top 25 Wii games.

Need more good Wii games?

Super Mario Galaxy
Metroid Prime
Boom Blox
Tatsunoko vs. Capcom
New Super Mario Bros. Wii (though I was a little disappointed by it)
Madworld


I hate how Nintendo is getting lazier.

Hraesvelg 02-11-2010 02:22 AM

I wonder why they've gotten lazy?
