Nintendo allegedly hacked by Crimson Collective hacking group — screenshot shows leaked folders, production assets, developer files, and backups

Did someone break through Nintendo's formidable cyber defenses?

Nintendo isn't confirming this, but it looks kind of serious. About 570gbs worth of data

That's amazing.

I honestly thought the Valve servers hack that had resulted on Half-Life 2 being leaked in the early aughts was the last we were gonna see of this sort of thing.

With how Nintendo has acted recently, is it safe to call this Karma?

 

[Tortuga]

Good

 

[Zerpina]

I hope they don't pay up, and all that data is leaked <unless it's costumer data> and Nintendo loses years of work on games.

Fuck Nintendo. It couldn't have happened to a nicer shittier company

Despite of how much I want Nintendo to fall from it's pride, I would prefer they had hacked them to get questionable and legally compromising information regarding high members of the company, something like ilegal stuff here and there, then blackmail them. That way they would learn they can't do whatever they want to the people.

In a war, any strategy is valid to win.

I thought nintendo would've learned from game freak being hacked.....? (Then again japanese companies are always gonna be behind especially nintendo :/ )

After sending the police after collectors, I'm almost disappointed that this is the extent of the damage.

No, I completely agree! Companies should not dictate what the consumer wants, it should be the other way around

If this was gigaleak 2.0 of old unreleased stuff then it would be great, this doesn't look like it.

Still, can't cheer for anyone here, this stuff is serious.

That's a higher number than the earlier gigaleaks or whatever, I wonder what it could be. If it's a thing.

Probably the Nintendo Official Hentai Homework folder

I wonder if Nintendo will go after them. Their go to strategy is overwhelming their targets with lawsuits, but finding these guys will be way harder than finding some random Brazilian dude.

 

[sneakyguts]

oh no plz someone protect nintendo!!!!

 

[Frickinfrik]

Should’ve hacked Sega, Warner Bros., EA, Activision, Paramount Global, Disney, Xbox, Ubisoft, and Gearbox instead. They truly deserve to be hacked for all the shit they’ve pulled for decades.

What exactly was the story behind the Gigaleak? Wasn't it some ex-employee who basically had entire hard drives full of old documentation or something?

A war, and blackmail you say; with a toy company that has no bearing on your life whatsoever if you choose not to be a customer in the first place?

 

[Poppet]

They had it coming. Can't wait to see how this ends.

They spent all cybersecurity budget filling patents to squash competition and innovation.

 

[Zeo]

Meanwhile the competition is just waiting in silence and.... wait, what innovation?

On the serious note, if the data leak is that huge then better hope they dont release their video/picture of "We are sorry > bow > move on" bs leaving the users in the air about personal data and stuff

Nah; anyone who gives Nintendo money effectively funds their asshole tactics.
