As I mentioned in other comments, I have no illusions that Gary Bowser is innocent or didn’t bring this all on himself. It’s his own fault he kept doing what he was doing.

However, the court doesn’t follow Gary from job to job initiating the process to garnish his wages.

It’s nintendo who is continuing to persecute Gary at this point, not the courts. Garnishing someone’s minimum wage job as a billion dollar corporation is uniquely evil.

I could be wrong, but I have not seen anything remotely close from EA, activision, blizzard, Microsoft, Sony, etc. and my original point was this is uniquely evil to Nintendo.

Sony in the early 2000 was going crazy for Modchips for PS2. They had multiple Cord cases in Europe, in multiple countries and many People needed to pay money in different Country's.

Later in 2011 George Hotz hacked the PS3, Sony warned him and he stopped. So we don't know how it would have ended if Sony and George ended up in Cord.

Nintendo also warned Team Xecuter multiple times but the Team wasn't interested in stopping. There isn't much difference between PlayStation and Nintendo.
