A hacking group is claiming that it has managed to breach Nintendo and access internal data, including developer assets and admin data. Known as the Crimson Collective, the hackers were behind a breach of Red Hat Consulting's GitHub repository last month, accessing thousands of sensitive files and source codes. Currently, it's unconfirmed that Nintendo was hacked or any of its data was in fact breached, but the group did share a screenshot of folders it claims it managed to access.

its the same darn console, just upgraded from the redundant old nvidia chip to a later model.

This alone is literal contradiction. Upgrading the hardware makes it not the same darn console. Switch 1 games don't even run on it natively. A translation layer of sorts is being used to handle the incompatibilities of pre-compiled shader binaries between the architectures of Maxwell/Pascal and Ampere/Lovelace.

People use that word so losely it lost its meaning. i bet you dont even know what a faschist is. but i digress.

I have been kicking fascists in the balls since you were wearing a diaper.
Maybe learn to spell instead of digressing so much...

I doubt that would happen. I mean I know the guy hacked Nintendo, but from a security perspective, that section of Nintendo is very likely walled off.

Because that kind of crap is so insanely important that it's not worth the extra comfort of keeping it in the network like that.

If it does leak, I'll crap my pants and eat a shoe. Because that would be the most painful and embarrassing thing to happen to them right now.

If they even leak a program that can sign a binary, much less the keys, it’s over.

Not on twitter they can't, with it being run by a fascist and all.

Honestly, not much different than before Musk took over - people were still being silenced for one thing or another. A toxic cesspool is a toxic cesspool, no matter who's in change, and it shouldn't have taken until Musk was in charge for people to realize that.

Sadly, I fear Bluesky's going to go the same route, as is the fate of all social media.

And I was tearing commies and facists both to shreds before you were even a sperm and an egg. Get on my level.

oh no . Anyway, i hope they find something useful.

Yup, same thing for the word "racist" BTW.

But, concerning the word "fascist"?...Its hilarious too because most people really dont. (and i am not exaggerating!).. I have asked many NPC's to give a rough definition when their dullard minds start droning on and using that word with no clue. They literally do not even know the meaning of the word and the actual governance system and its functions. They just hear the fake news media, college profs and highly uneducated social media hiveminders parrot it because its a buzz term insult, has been for years now. You Just get "muh he bad" "muh fascist". Now.. I am not defending it or saying its a good or anything... not at all.. far from it. All im saying is, i just wish people took a government class or something in high school. Maybe then they could use the correct and accurate terminology to smear someone they hate due to pent up unchecked emotinal issues.
Edit: same story with the word "Socalist".. no clue either. I ask for a rough definition... I get "it means free stuff". I would love to hear them say something like that to people that escaped socialist countries... like my family.

Because all gamers™ are part of a hivemind that decides who to hate based on online discourse and game prices.

If we had some punctuation that be nice.
Anyways.
"Why are you guys hating so much. You all just haters."
Here's why.
80 dollar games
Nintendo's insane lawfirm side that comes for just about anyone and everything. Do something they don't like? DMCA. Made a mod that doesn't impact anyone other than the people who run it? DMCA.
Make an emulator with a clean room? (Which is legal in the United States.)
DMCA.
don't like the competition? Patent everything and when Nintendo doesn't like it, sue them for infringement.
Edit:
Also due to leaks. We got confirmation that Nintendo Ninja's are indeed real. Not only had they found the people IRL. But more or less gave the people they find a threat. Forcing them out of the modding scene.

Unless there's PII in this, chances are Nintendo isn't going to be actually harmed by this hack, at least not long term.

Even the stuff like future games means bugger all these days.

Source code? Only some sketchy company would touch that if anything.

A comparison I look at is Valve, where some claim HL2 was nearly cancelled because of the 2003 hack/leak, in practice the only long term harm was that people obsess over beta content.

Unfortunately, those leaked texts of recent don't really help this narrative.
