    I mean they take like 33% of that guy named bowser’s life earnings. Which are severely reduced because they also got him thrown in jail for a felony.

    That’s pretty uniquely evil

      That’s hardly unique when damages exceed what a person can pay, wage garnishing is actually relatively common.

      Nintendo also gave Gary Bowser a warning and he signed an agreement saying he would stop his illegal activities… and then he continued anyway.

      They gave him an out at no cost and instead he landed himself in prison because he fucked around and found out.

        I agree that bowser brought the final outcome on himself, however, that does not expunge Nintendo of guilt.

        They continue to collect their 30% or however much it is.
