Nintendo Pirate to Pay $1.5M

The 24 year old guy that pirated Super Mario Bros for the Wii has reached a $1.5M settlement with Nintendo. Topping things off, the guy will also have to pay Nintendo’s $100k legal bills too.

Nintendo said the loss was caused when Burt made New Super Mario Bros for the Wii gaming console available for illegal download a week ahead of its official Australian release in November last year.
