Nintendo Sues Emulator Gamer Who Streamed Pirated Games Before Release

While Nintendo sucks for their highly litigious nature, this guy deserves zero sympathy. Play extremely stupid games, win extremely stupid prizes.

On October 24, after unnamed platforms had shut down Keighin’s streams in response to Nintendo complaints, the gamer reportedly sent the company a letter in which he claimed to have “a thousand burner channels” to stream from and “can do this all day.”

The complaint further alleges that after Keighin’s monetized YouTube account was set to be shut down, he added a CashApp handle in order to profit from streaming Nintendo’s games.

There's some things you just don't do if you have any intelligence whatsoever, and making a profit by streaming dubiously-obtained unreleased games and poking the lawyer-happy hornet's nest is one of those.
