      Oh, the horror! I guess that justifies ruining his life forever.

      I disagree with selling pirated roms but, he also wasn’t part of the development team he was closer to a sales associate then anything. the punishment given to him was cruel and unusable and honestly a failure of the legal system.

      I see this on the same level as forcing a sales associate at Walmart to pay the fine of all the wage violations the company as a whole did. It’s rediculous.

      I personally will never be buying a Nintendo product again out of principle.

      I thought he was selling chips that let you do piracy

      Either way, he and his descendants should be indentured servants to Nintendo. His lineage must be shamed.
