At least they don't store credit card information.

I don't understand what they will gain from hacking Nintendo. They don't really have as much info as Sony or Microsoft :/

Apparently it was just done "for the lulz" before they attacked an FBI affiliate.

I think the point

I think the point of this hack is to show people that they could have easily hacked any other gaming company but chose Sony because of GeoHotz incident.

mabye their taking all the mario, zelda,metroid etc and deleting it so nintendo is forced to make new game franchises

Gonna need some solid evidence before I believe this prick and his hacker kiddies.

 

[GrimHeaper]

Well that was lulzy because They found next to nothing useful to them
Less is more sometimes.

Alas I on the other hand, need no proof.

I genuinely do believe these kids are THAT stupid and lacking in any moral reasoning beyond liking to make other people's day crappier.

if anybody can read they technical jargon

They released the nintendo config file so anyone(if tech savy ) can get in and mess the nintendo site up or do whatever they please I guess. I didn't even think ninty was worth hacking tbh

BA-ZING! Take that Nintendo!

The lulz boat is simply showing it's power that they have, I wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft was next.
