Lol this man has to be on public services because Nintendo wants him to send them 20 bucks every month for the rest of his life. Fucking petty AND basically passing lots of cost on to taxpayers AND they still will never stop pirates. Fuck Nintendo, yo.

yup this is a really good reason to never ever buy or support Nintendo ever again. Filthy rotten company.

What’s funny is that pirates often become paying customers when they can afford it. So it’s not unlikely that Bowser helped stoke the flames of nostalgia in thousands of gamers. And what kind of console do you think those people are going to get for their kids if they ever start a family?

I’ve learned from this community that piracy isn’t theft, yet Nintendo’s attorney said to the court, “It’s for that reason that we do all we can to prevent games on Nintendo systems from being stolen.”

Why is the attorney allowed to lie to the court? Shouldn’t he be disbarred and prosecuted himself?

why the hell doesn’t he just declare bankruptcy and move on? That’s what those laws are for.

Not a lawyer, but bankruptcy laws sometimes won’t apply to criminal penalties / restitution.

People like Gary Bowser are the reason why we need copyright reform.
