This reminds me of when Nintendo was caught selling ripped ROM’s from a pirate site in the WiiShop lol.
Also reminds me of the time Microsoft was using a cracked version of SoundForge to make system sounds:

IIRC it didn’t end with the wiishop either. Off the top of my head, there was some controversy surrounding the NES/SNES Classic consoles. I think they used emulators that were written by pirates, instead of writing their own?
